Not impressed that Aster and Cody are staying with Dexter for the summer. I was happy when they left.
This is Showtime's biggest hit by far, and there is no reason to end it.

As I've stated several times, the creative team behind the show is interested in prolonging the series as long as possible as evidenced by the fact they give themselves easy outs all the time and really refuse to do anything to rock the boat. The most interesting thing they did was kill off Rita (made sense, she served her purpose) but any fallout from that was basically dealt within the first few episodes and only revisited sporadically as the season went on.

Dexter doesn't seem like a show that is worried about legacy or the quality of the show diminishing, as long as it remains popular it will probably remain on the air. THe only thing preventing that would be Michael C. Hall wanting to move on.
