In what year did Dexter: New Blood premiere?

Dexter: New Blood premiered in 2021, with its first episode airing on November 7 of that year. The ten-episode limited series was created as a continuation of the original Dexter story and was broadcast by Showtime.

The revival reunited Michael C. Hall as Dexter Morgan and brought back Jennifer Carpenter as Debra Morgan in a different form. The plot begins after Dexter has spent years hiding under the identity Jim Lindsay in Iron Lake, a fictional small town in upstate New York.

The premiere, “Cold Snap,” introduces Dexter’s carefully controlled new life and shows how quickly it begins to unravel. He works at a local sporting-goods store, has a relationship with police chief Angela Bishop, and has avoided killing for roughly a decade. The unexpected arrival of his son Harrison forces him to confront his past.

Some viewers confuse the premiere year with the year the original series ended, 2013, or with the year the revival was announced and developed. New Blood was ordered and promoted earlier, but its actual first broadcast was in 2021. Its finale aired on January 9, 2022.
