Without looking it up, I have absolutely zero recollection of who the villain is in that season. Season 7 has a pretty strong hunt for Dex, which ....

Spoiler!

culminates with Dexter luring Laguerta into the storage container where he was locked as a child... just as Dex is about to kill Laguerta, Deb catches him. She has to make the choice, to either kill Dex or kill Deb, and with a last second decisions kills Laguerta. I would have been cool with the ending if Deb had killed Dex.

Season 8 has a few moments of hope, but the entire time I felt like we were leading up to a bullshit ending, which if it had only been "bullshit" would have been better than what we got, which was (no hyperbole intended) the worst series ending of any show I've ever seen, bar none.

Yeah....I knew the ending of Seasons 7 and 8 because I read through the thread. Seasons 5 and 6 were meh to me anyways. I may just re-watch Season 4 and try to repress anything after that.
