As the tagline for the latest series confirms, The End Begins. The final season of Showtime’s superb serial-killer series DEXTER has just begun in the US (while we in the UK will see it premiere on FX this Sunday). It’s the first time the series has aired before building up its anticipation by promoting at the annual San Diego Comic Con. This left a doubt as to whether everyone’s favourite human butcher (or rather the cast and crew of the hit show) would make an appearance at this years event.
Well, those dedicated fans attending (that includes us!) can rest easy as the following press release (and message from star Michael C. Hall) confirms they’ll reward faithful fantastics with an epic DEXTER panel!
LOS ANGELES, CA – July 2, 2013 – You’ve been there for every edge of your seat moment, inside Dexter’s most intimate thoughts, watching him transform before your eyes. Now, after eight amazing seasons, it’s time to say goodbye. Join the cast, writers/executive producers and surprise guest stars, who are too big to mention, for a final Comic-Con farewell panel that even Hall H can’t contain! KROQ entertainment reporter Ralph Garman presides over a revealing interview and Q&A session with the stars and executive producers of DEXTER. Featured panelists include, but are not limited to series star and executive producer Michael C. Hall, and series stars Jennifer Carpenter, David Zayas, James Remar, and special guest star Yvonne Strahovski.

DEXTER stars Michael C. Hall in his Golden Globe® and SAG Award-winning role as Dexter Morgan, a complicated and conflicted blood-spatter expert for the Miami police department. Season eight begins six months after LaGuerta’s murder – and Dexter is still managing life as a dad, brother, and serial killer. As Deb (Jennifer Carpenter) struggles to deal with the consequences of her actions, a mysterious woman comes to work with Miami Metro, offering first-hand information on Dexter’s past. The series also stars Desmond Harrington, C.S. Lee, Aimee Garcia, David Zayas, Geoff Pierson and James Remar. DEXTER’s eighth and final season premiere continued to break records, ranking as the series’ highest-rated debut ever with 3.2 million viewers, a record which the show continues to break season after season. The series averaged 6.2 million weekly viewers across platforms in its seventh season, its highest-rated yet.
