But the series as a whole is so good that I don't mind. Atleast it is not as repetative as Dexter, I loved that series but season after season is exactly the same thing. Luckily they are showing the last season and so far it has been pretty decent, eventhough I've wanted to strangle Deborah so many times. And lets not talk about the Walking Dead... saw the trailer and went "nope!". Freaking awesome series and they just flush it down the toilet.
Completely disagree about it being repetitive. Not only do
Spoiler below!
Most of the things Danny mentioned only happen once
there is much more depth to the show than just what *happens*. Also I've been a bit disappointed with Dexter so far. Season 8 so far is basically the same as most of the others in terms of quality but I guess it remains to be seen how it all culminates. Honestly, I'm much more patient and tolerant of a show repeating themes than most so while I have occasionally been bored watching it and often facepalmed at how completely imprudent this so-called expert is I have consistently enjoyed it through all of the seasons. My favorite undoubtedly being the one with Jimmy Smitts. That entire season was fantastic.

Perhaps repetitive was a bad choice of words, it's just that quite a few times (from what I remember, it's been a while) the series is very slow and retrace a few footsteps before it kicks back in again, mostly regarding the friendship between Walter and Jesse. But mostly there are just a few details bothering me making me remember the series for less than it is, because it truly is an awesome series and one of my absolute favourites.
Spoiler below!
One of the details being the planecrash that they teased throughout a whole season. They made it seem like something really exciting happened to Walter and his family in their garden and then the whole thing didn't really matter. The planecrash felt a little overkill. But then again Gustavo was in the series and he is one of my favourite bad guys!
Regarding Dexter I can agree that it's good that the show sticks to what they know and do well but they really don't change season to season. I'm glad they are shaking things up a little this season with the relationship between Deborah and Dexter being what it is. But I think the series took a strange turn with the latest episode, they've completely changed goal. Is the rest of the season going to be about that kid?
Spoiler below!
It's not exactly the first time Dexter takes a trainee
Feels a little weak for an ending to the series.
Wow, no mods for one evening and a bot comes along and fuck everything "/ what are the ods?

Thanks dude. But I only like Fugazi and Bad Brains. Mirror Threat doesn't seem right to me.
