Dexter Morgan has finally sharpened his knives for another round, and the wait has been anything but short. Dexter: Resurrection Season 2 arrives 420 days after the first season concluded, giving fans roughly 14 months to wonder what the infamous serial killer would do next. The new chapter also leaps three years ahead, finding Dexter and Harrison navigating a very different life in New York City.

Of course, keeping up with Dexter Morgan and Harrison requires more than following their latest misadventures. Knowing when each episode drops is essential to staying ahead of the hunt.

There is little chance of a quiet season in New York, particularly with Dexter Morgan chasing his remaining targets while wrestling with a rather inconvenient midlife crisis. The Five Borough Killer is keeping the city nervous, Harrison Morgan is stepping into the NYPD, and Brian Cox's New York Ripper brings another unwelcome ghost from the past, as seen from the trailer.

Of course, with a few episodes of Season 2 already out, viewers have had plenty to say about Dexter Morgan's latest killing spree.

The verdict on Dexter: Resurrection season 2's beginning

The verdict on Dexter: Resurrection Season 2 so far is largely favorable, with critics welcoming its devilishly entertaining return. Although the opening episodes have not quite matched the near-universal acclaim of the first season, the crime thriller has plenty working in its favor. Its self-aware humour, intriguing new antagonists, and increasingly complicated family dynamics have drawn praise.

One of the season's biggest talking points is Dexter Morgan's midlife crisis, which adds an unexpectedly humorous dimension to his murderous pursuits. Brian Cox and Dan Stevens also bring considerable menace to the proceedings, while Harrison Morgan's place in the NYPD raises the stakes. However, some reviewers feel the slower procedural detours occasionally interrupt the momentum.
