Saw the last few episodes, and I would say they're thoroughly entertaining, but entirely unfufilling.
I think they really classed up things by composing some new music, and treating the camerawork with more detail. The last few episodes almost feel like a mini-movie. Breaching on dramatic areas that seemed to have been forgotten from seasons 2-5. It's nice to see a lot of the feel of the first season return in these past couple of episodes. Plus, they're 95% Dexter, and 5% boring psuedo-"procedural cop drama"/soap opera stuff that's been infecting this season badly. Yet, I somehow feel it doesn't disguise the fact the plot itself is still kind of hollow. I mean, almost everyone called the twist episodes back. I predict there will be a huge conclusion to this season, but not enough to save it, in my books. Still though, I've been reading that this may be the last season of Dexter. Maybe this is all for the best. I only wish, though, they could have ended it with Season Four as the cliffhanger would have been a fantastic way for the show to bow out.

Tons of people did, I just thought it was natural writing. Season 5 wasn't bad, I think it was just a natural step after season 4.
6 has made no sense to me. It's like, there hasn't been a single thing they've done logical. Albeit, last couple episodes were nice mindless entertainment. If it does go on two more seasons, they've got to pull their **** together.

The Wire was brilliant. Plus, the Wire knew what it was good at, and kept the focus on it.

Yeah it's a bit like they had the brain storm and came up with a few ideas but they never went from there to actually developing the story lines into something more than the basic story board.
