Dexter is not doing as well on network as they had hoped. It's mostly the subject matter. I agree the commercials and the "clean up" they had to do to air it hurt. I can't see how they will be able to show any of Season 2 with Lila without reshooting a bunch of scenes.

rpm.. I have not seen Dexter on regular commercial tv but...

How could you get into it with all the silly donut commercials that they have?  I just don't think that it could be done. 

Sadly... "survivor" type shows where no real surviving is involved and "talent" shows where no real talent is involved and.. situation comedies where the punch line never has to wait for the commercial to end and the "plot" is not really the reason.. are all that can work on commercial tv.

sienfeld figured it out way back when.. the only thing that will work on commercial tv is

"a show about nothing"

New episodes (only 2 left) are Monday at 9. Reruns on UHD and downloads at cbs.com.

Stanley capped the sorry SOB that killed his little sister tonight. Great show!!!

The last 2 episodes are going to be greatness. I hope CBS will give us another season. We should find out in a few weeks.

snirf ... please don't do this again, americans show need about one full year (and often more) to cross the atlantic :(

I agree Lazs. I don't watch "reality" shows. and I also have a DVR so I can skip thru the annoying buggers.

Sorry, straffo. You do know episodes are available for download at cbs.com, right?

They might have them on CBS website to watch, I know they have them on "On Demand" to watch whenever you want.

Edit: Ah I see RPM beat me to it.
