I think that would be a very cool way to do season 5/6 (if the series goes that long). Have Dexter and Rita's kid get older and show signs of being a sociopath (killing small animals, hurting kids at school, no feeling of remose, etc...) and have Dexter really struggle with what to do. Lots of flashbacks to his father... maybe Dexter will have trained his son/daughter to continue the legacy just in time before his capture/death.
I really hope Debra's character either takes off next season (digging into Dexter's past) or dies off (either literally or makes way for more character development of LaGuerta/Debra's partner/Rita's family, etc...). It's the predictableness of her character that has me at this stage - she's loyal, wants to be like her father, is chasing her badge/promotion, low self-confidence/esteem, etc... blah blah blah.
The other characters have become so much more well rounded and developed while Debra's has stayed... boring.
Anyways, awesome show. Watching Michael C. Hall in this and having been a fan of Six Feet Under, his talent and scope of acting ability is quite something. I look forward to a major movie role.
