Dexter: Original Sin (2024)
They're catching killers. He's about to become one.
In 1991 Miami, Dexter Morgan transitions from student to avenging serial killer. When his bloodthirsty urges can't be ignored any longer, Dexter must learn to channel his inner darkness. With the guidance of his father, Harry, he adopts a Code designed to help him find and kill people who deserve to be eliminated from society without getting on law enforcements' radar. This is a particular challenge for young Dexter as he begins a forensics internship at the Miami Metro Police Department.

What kind of watch this is
Dexter: Original Sin is a 2024 crime drama that strips the franchise back to its roots. Set in 1991 Miami, it follows a young Dexter as he transitions from a student to a killer, guided by his father Harry. He is interning at the Miami Metro Police Department, a detail that makes his nightly work feel less like a secret and more like a second job. The series runs 8 hours across 10 episodes, which is a long way to go just to see how the code was written. It is a slower, darker look at the machinery behind the man.
What the critics said
The critical response is lukewarm, which is a specific kind of polite. Rotten Tomatoes sits at 70% with an average score of 6.6 out of 10, based on 20 reviews. Metacritic lands on 50 out of 100 from six critics, labeling the reception "mixed or average." The consensus notes the show revives a tried-and-true formula rather than injecting fresh blood. It is "just solid enough to scratch the Dexter itch with a scalpel," according to the site's summary.
How it did with audiences
TMDB users rate Dexter: Original Sin 8.1 out of 10. That is a solid score, the kind that suggests the prequel did not fumble the bag. Without box office figures to lean on, the verdict rests entirely on those viewer votes. They liked what they saw, and they said so.
