Dexter: Resurrection Season 2 – Will Showtime Renew the Hit Series?
Dexter: Resurrection Season 2 - The series picks up after Dexter: New Blood, with Dexter Morgan relocating from Miami to Iron Lake, New York. Season 1 delivered everything fans wanted – tense father-son drama, Dexter trying to adapt to a new life, and his deadly pursuit of Leon Prater and his serial killer club.
Fan Reactions Online
Social media has been flooded with demands for a new season. One fan wrote, “Need a Dexter Resurrection season 2.” Another said, “I’m going to be mad if we don’t get season 2.” Many praised the show for being “insane” and even better than expected after New Blood.
Renewal Status Update
As of now, Showtime has not officially confirmed Season 2. However, Variety reported in August that a writers’ room for Season 2 is expected to open soon – a promising sign for fans.
Challenges & Cancellations
Despite the excitement, there’s some uncertainty. Showtime recently canceled Dexter: Original Sin, which was planned as a prequel. That decision sparked worry, but industry insiders note that Resurrection has stronger support, especially after the Skydance-Paramount merger.
Why Resurrection May Continue
Unlike Original Sin, which looked back at Dexter’s early years, Resurrection pushes his story forward with Michael C. Hall at the center. The show has enjoyed record-breaking viewership, becoming Showtime’s most-streamed premiere ever. IMDb ratings also reflect fan love, with most episodes scoring above 9.
