Yeah, the sixth season of Dexter was somewhat of a disappointment, after a promising start. The last six episodes were basically a setup for next season, so they got lazy with the plot of the season they were in. The best part of the season was Mos Def - who was excellent. The one thing that makes me always look forward to a new Dexter season is an interesting character, because every season has had at least one.

It's at the point now where Dexter should seriously consider wrapping up. Sub-plots are becoming repetitive and laziness is beginning to show in the writing. Case in point - why did Travis go to Dexter's house? I know he looked for a sign from God and yadda yadda, but as a device he did that simply so Dexter's son could be kidnapped. It was lazy writing and shouldn't have even entered into the story in any way. Another sticking point for me was why did Deb go to the church? Again, it was simply done for that cliffhanger ending and didn't make any logical sense.

Make next season the final season and go out on a high note, I say.
I agree about Mos Def, it was such a shame he was cut off so early. He gave a total new perspective to this season.

As for your questions, Travis obviously wanted to kick back somewhere and not hide out in the open, hence why he returned to his first hiding place. When he found out that the police were there he had to find a new place and considering he had stolen Dexter's keys and wallet it was obvious he would go there. As for Deb going to the church, she had told Dexter to do a final sweep there so they could wrap it up as a crime scene and she knew he would be there in the evening because of the school thing with his son. She went there because she wanted to talk with him about the whole 'in love thing'.

and there should be two more seasons coming so you'd better hope for the best :P I still don't get what was bad about it though, I thought the whole season with Dexter having to rediscover what he believes in a nice change of pace. Seeing him in that final scene with Travis on his table was put out so well. I feel like I lot of people failed to see the main issue, Dexter lost contact with his inner self. That's why he was so sloppy, why he was so obsessed with DDK (to prove himself worthy of catching a big prey) and why Brian came back and even Harry wasn't a good guide for him. Then finally, at the end when Dexter gets to kill Travis you can see he is in his element again, and this gets even more real when Deb enters and you feel how weird it must be for her, yet how real this is for Dexter.

I agree there were a few sloppy or unrealistic things but just as well I feel like these things could be true. They could be unrealistic but at the same time they make some sense as well. Though of course it would be better if they left out any doubt or unrealistic events, but still I think people are overreacting by saying this is the worst season ever.

I tend to be in agreement with the consensus that season 6 was the worst season - but that still doesn't make it bad. The Travis thing is sound theory, but still doesn't ring true. Why would you hide out in the apartment of someone you've just killed?

And the Deb thing, again it's sounds logical enough, but just seemed to serve only for a cliff-hanger ending.

I hope the next two seasons won't be as sloppy, but the desperation to breathe life into the series is becoming more and more obvious, and to some extent ridiculous. Deb can't find the right man - yeah, we get it.
