The Dexter New Blood DVD set collects all 10 episodes of the 2021 Showtime limited series that brought Michael C. Hall back as Dexter Morgan. Showrunner Clyde Phillips, who ran the original show's first four seasons, returned to tell this story, which picks up a decade after the 2013 finale.
The four discs come from Paramount Home Entertainment and CBS Home Entertainment. This is a Region 1 DVD in NTSC, so it plays in standard US and Canadian DVD players and in Blu-ray players.
Ten years after faking his death, Dexter Morgan lives in Iron Lake, a fictional small town in upstate New York. He goes by Jim Lindsay, works at a sporting goods store and is dating the town's police chief, Angela Bishop.
His quiet routine breaks when his estranged teenage son, Harrison, turns up without warning. At the same time, a run-in with Matt Caldwell, the son of Kurt Caldwell, wakes up the urge Dexter has spent years trying to bury.
Michael C. Hall leads the cast with Jack Alcott as Harrison, Julia Jones as Angela, Johnny Sequoyah as Audrey Bishop, Alano Miller as Sergeant Logan and Clancy Brown as Kurt Caldwell. Jennifer Carpenter also returns as Debra Morgan, who appears to Dexter as an inner voice.
Save the last featurette until you have watched the finale, because it discusses how the story ends.
Catch up on the original run with Dexter Season 1 and The Complete Final Season, or get everything at once with Dexter: The Complete Series + Dexter: New Blood. The story continues in Dexter: Resurrection Season 1 on DVD. For cast and episode details, see the Wikipedia article on Dexter: New Blood.

Was So glad to see this
I didn’t know I would become a Dexter fan,.. but seeing the last couple of seasons drew me it to his character.
This set was a welcome addition and it well written in every possible way
Every episode tells a story or drops tidbits to the future. Absolutely a must have for serious Dexter fans, but I enjoyed the continued story line. Michael C. Hall voice over is always a sensational part of the character.
Beautifully filmed abd excellent script layed out the continued story.
Package was well designed and not a digital type at all.
I recommend this even for casual fan as well. This has an intriguing story arc and holds you in to the very last episode
Not a lot of blood as the series gave us, but more character development.

The end of the Dexter saga
Dexter was back! After the seasons of Dexter and several intervening years, they brought Dexter back only to end him for all. Sad! The actor playing the lead role was so good as a sort of Robin Hood, not robbing the bad but getting rid of them! Then his son finally catches up with him and his secret life starts up again. So wish this new chapter could’ve continued! A great series and ending that wrapped everything up.

A better ending than Season 8, but does not quite stick the landing (Season 8 spoilers)
+++Warning, this contains spoilers from Season 8 of the original series but does not contain any major giveaways from New Blood.+++
As most are likely aware, Dexter is a tv series about a “good” serial killer that ran from 2006 to 2013. It ended with Dexter having gotten away with everything, faking his death, and moving to Oregon. That ending left pretty much everyone, including Michael C. Hall, with a bad taste in their mouth. Because of that, this series was thought up by the original series creator, Clyde Phillips, who was no longer a part of the show in season 8, to retcon that ending.
New Blood sees Dexter living a normal life in a fictional town called Iron Lake in upstate New York. He works at a fish and game shop, is dating the chief of police (played by Julia Jones), and is living the typical small-town life. We find out that he has abstained from killing for ten years, and seemingly has everything he ever wanted. Of course, things do not remain rosy as his dark passenger rears its ugly head again, and Harrison (played by Jack Alcott) manages to track Dexter down seeking answers.
This series has a mostly new cast that includes Jones and Alcott, and also includes the great Clancy Brown, Jamie Chung, Johnny Sequoyah, and Alano Miller. There is a handful of returning characters from the original series, most notably Jennifer Carpenter. I will not spoil her role, but it is not hard to figure out in what capacity she is brought back.
I do think the series gets a bad rap for how it ended (there are some absolute crazy one-star reviews from Q nuts that should be totally ignored), but most of the negative reviews revolve around the last few minutes of the final episode. Although I do think some variation on how it ended is the way the show should have ended, I do think that it could have been done better. I personally would have liked to see a bit more of a tie-in with the original series and have the original cast members included in the climax of the series, even if it meant making one more episode.
For those who get the Blu-Ray set, the show looks and sounds great in HD. There is some really great cinematography that shows off the filming locations very well. The extras include short featurettes on reviving the show on discs one and two (each just 2-3 minutes long) and then on the fourth disc there is a making-of documentary that runs about 30 minutes. A good amount of material, especially since many series, if they are lucky enough to get a DVD release much less a Blu-Ray release have almost no bonus features.
Overall, the series is very good. The ending is controversial, but I do think it is better upon second viewing than it was the first time I watched it, and I get why they made the choices they did. The writing, on the whole, was much better than what we got in Season 8, and the acting by all was superb. Hall and Carpenter fell back into their roles seemingly with ease, Clancy Brown was great, and Jamie Chung pretty much stole every scene she was in (all but one). I certainly cannot say that everyone will like this season, but I think most fans of the show’s original run will find this season to be more satisfying than what season eight provided.
