‘Dexter’ Season 4 Releases A New Promo Photo
Fans of the incredible Showtime series Dexter should know by now that the show’s main character, Dexter Morgan, will be a newly married father (in addition to being his usual serial killer self) when the 4th season of the series premieres this Fall. Production on the new season is well underway and the show is scheduled to premiere on Showtime on September 27 … but today we get our first look at the first promo photo released for the upcoming new season of Dexter. Be Warned! The following article contains spoilers for Dexter Season 4:

The first promotional picture for “Dexter” season 4 has been released by Showtime. Showing a picture of a baby with the drool bib saying “My Dad Is Killer”, the picture represents the parenthood phase which will be faced by Dexter and Rita in the new season. Production for the fourth season is kicked off this month with the premiere date slated for September 27. Apart from the fourth season, Showtime has also ordered for the fifth one which will again consist of 12 episodes. This Fall, Dexter will be dealing a lot with his neighbors and a new deadly serial killer who is dubbed Trinity Killer because he has the proclivity to slaughter in threes. John Lithgow will take the role of Trinity whose alter ego is Walter Simmons. Meanwhile actress Courtney Ford is a reporter curious of the murders conducted by Trinity.
I am very, very excited that John Lithgow has joined the cast of Dexter. He has a creepy vibe about him that makes him the perfect choice to play a serial killer on the show. To be honest, I’m only marginally interested in the new development of Dexter as a husband and father. We’ve already seen the way he interacts with his now wife Rita (Julie Benz) and her children. I guess throwing a baby into the mix is meant to change things up a bit but … I’m really all about the complexities of Dexter as a good-guy serial killer. I have full faith, tho, that Dexter will continue to rule when the new season premieres in September. It is truly one of my fave TV shows and is prolly my fave cable TV series of all.

This girl at my work is pregnant and she’s having a boy and she was like, “I like the name Dexter.” and then I was like, “No! That’s the name of that serial killer dude on TV!” but I don’t even watch this show but maybe I should?

I think it’s so funny that he’s a husband and soon-to-be father. I’ve read that people don’t like that he’s become so “normal,” but I think what you have to remember is that he’s NOT normal, and he’s faking everything you see. I love the show and think it’s unintentionally funny.

I CAN’T WAIT!!! I LOVE Dexter!!
@Julie – I don’t think the humor is unintentional..They know exactly what they’re doing.. :)

yeah the baby part doesn’t interest me so much but i think how he’ll keep up his extracurricular activities while living with rita full-time will be interesting. it’ll also be interesting when the baby gets older because he’s worried about passing on the blood-thirst gene like the brain scan his dad showed ya know comparing his to a serial killer’s? i wonder if he’ll have the baby’s brain scanned. ugh it’s been tooooo long and we still have over three months to wait?!

OMG…I cannot wait. This show is so damned exciting. It starts the week before I get married..my friend asked what when we were leaving for our honeymoon, and I told her not till Monday…I can’t miss Dexter on Sunday night!!
@Chase – I plan to name my son Dexter. It’s just a name, I have found that no matter what you name your child, someone has some sort of a reference for it. (and no, not naming AFTER Dexter…I just really like the name)
