Dexter: Original Sin, a new series from Paramount+ with Showtime, serves as a prequel to the iconic crime drama, taking viewers back to the formative years of America's favorite serial killer. Set in Miami in 1991, the show chronicles the transition of a young Dexter Morgan (Patrick Gibson) from a brilliant but troubled student to a nascent avenging serial killer. This is the origin story of the "Dark Passenger" and the birth of the Code of Harry.

The series is not just a straightforward prequel; it is framed by the voice and memory of the older Dexter Morgan (Michael C. Hall). This narrative device connects the new series to the original, allowing the audience to experience young Dexter's journey through the lens of the man he would become. This older perspective adds layers of reflection and irony to the events of his youth.

At the heart of the show is the complex and ethically ambiguous relationship between Dexter and his adoptive father, Harry Morgan (Christian Slater). Harry, a seasoned Miami Metro Homicide detective, recognizes the darkness within his son. Instead of seeking to cure him, he guides him, creating a moral framework

Dexter: Original Sin is a series that ran for 1 seasons (10 episodes) between December 13, 2024 and on
