Where did it go wrong (and right)? It's the final episode of Avenging Angels! For their big finale, Andrew and Charlie spend an hour and a half looking back over Dexter as a whole. They go season-by-season through the series and figure out what it did right and where it went wrong. They then rank each season from worst to best so you know which ones to check out if you decide to watch the show. Is there anything good to say about Seasons 5, 6 and 8? Were there indications things would turn out the way they did way back in Season 2? How much does the final season retroactively ruin what came before it? Tune in to find out.

Andrew and Charlie discuss the Season 8 premiere of Dexter in the first "official" episode of Avenging Angels. Are the supporting characters being set up for important developments, or is it more of the same? Do the challenges offered by the new character of Dr. Vogel seem like a compelling direction for the show to take? Do the writers fully realize how they've developed Dexter's "code" in the past? And perhaps most important of all, is the new Dexter/Debra dynamic an appropriate one? Plus, Andrew and Charlie figure out which characters they'd like to see killed off and come up with a great idea for a spin-off show.
