The Dexter Season 6 DVD collects all 12 episodes of the Showtime drama's sixth season, which premiered on October 2, 2011. Michael C. Hall returns as Dexter Morgan as Miami Metro investigates a string of ritualistic killings with apocalyptic religious symbolism.
This is a DVD, so it plays in standard US DVD players and in Blu-ray players, which also read DVDs.
Season 6 centers on a series of murders staged with imagery from the Book of Revelation. The killers, who become known as the Doomsday Killers, aim to bring about the end of the world, and Dexter and his colleagues at Miami Metro are drawn into the case.
Colin Hanks plays Travis Marshall, and Edward James Olmos plays Professor James Gellar. Mos Def, credited as "Mos," appears as Brother Sam. Religious themes run through the whole season.
At the station, the balance of power shifts. Debra (Jennifer Carpenter) is promoted to lieutenant over Angel Batista (David Zayas), while María LaGuerta (Lauren Vélez), now a captain, works against her.
Shortly after Season 6 aired, Showtime renewed Dexter for two more seasons, which became the final run of the original series. The Dexter Season Six set leads directly into those last two seasons, so it is an essential piece if you are collecting the show in order.
Dexter ran for eight seasons and 96 episodes in total. Owning each season on disc lets you rewatch the full story without depending on a streaming service.
Catch up with Dexter: Season 5 or continue with Dexter: Season 7. For the whole run in one box, see Dexter: The Complete Series + Dexter: New Blood, or browse our TV series collection. For episode details, read the Wikipedia article on Dexter Season 6.

My many Thanks to everyone that caused a stir over the spoiler
After reading all of the reviews about the 2 minute “Showtime Promo” at the beginning and making sure not to read any spoilers, I ordered the season six Blu-ray. I figured that I would somehow avoid it when it popped up. As it turned out, my luck had changed. There was “NO” promo, nothing. It just went straight to the menu. I didn’t look for spec features or anything I just watched every minute of every episode. I thank everyone for warning me and especially thank those that complained enough to the powers that be. It worked. I got to watch the season. After the final scene I almost called 911 because I actually had an extremely serious panic attack, anxiety attack or even a minor heart attack. Not to mention the fact that I needed to change drawers. Thanks for making it so I could actually enjoy the season finale. Tomorrow night I begin watching season 7 and have not read anything about it so nothing can spoil it for me. Season six truly was the return of Dexter, worth 5 times what I paid for it. Now with the anticipation of the season 7 1st episode raising my blood pressure, I am wondering how I am going to deal with the end of season 7 and then the end of season 8 which will be the end of Dexter. No show or movie has ever gotten to me like this and I hope one day there will be something to being as well written, acted and produced. One can dream, right? I am glad that I do not have Showtime right now because I like being able to just watch it when I want, as many times as I want. Michael C Hall is one of the few that have taken chances with their career choices, from Kissing men to killing them. Like Christopher Meloni, running around a prison naked kissing and well, uhem guys to arresting them as Stabler and saving the world as an animated Green Lantern. Then there’s Jake G. Brokeback to……

Review of the blu ray
I have been a huge fan of DEXTER right from the beginning of the very first season. It is a show that fully pulls you in and has a premise much deeper than the simple description of blood analyst by day/serial killer of those worthy by night. This show really gets into the mind of Dexter and we get to fully understand how he became the way he, why he does what he does and also understand his reasonings. DEXTER is one of the best shows out there and though this season, the sixth, is not totally up to par with the better seasons, it is still better than most television out there.
The blu ray presentation here is amazing as all the seasons are. The black/white ratio is excellent and colors are bright and vivid and pop. Skin tone is very realistic and clarity is amazingly precise. The darker scenes are just as vivid as the beautiful Florida scenery shots. Add to the almost perfect 1080p video a Dolby Tru-HD 5.1 audio that is sublime and you have the best viewing experience possible. Dexter’s voice overs come out the speakers strong and present. The rest of the dialogue is crisp and clear as well. And surround speakers are put to great use here. There is much action with season 6 and at the right moments all speakers are utilized for utmost effect.
My opinion on season 6 has changed greatly from my opinion after watching it air last season. Upon first tv viewing I found the season a little lackluster but was totally enthralled by the character Brother Sam played by Mos Def and found the ending an excellent unexpected twist that definitely made the whole season make sense and also sets up season 7 expertly. Season 6 is primarily about Dexter facing the issue of religion especially in regards to what he wants to teach his son Harrison. The Doomsday Killer is the evil entity this season and with first viewing it didn’t seem fully effective to me. The first 8 episodes were fine but the next 3 seemed to loose steam before the final explosive excellent episode. After a reviewing of the season on blu ray I now can honestly say everything about this season was excellent and it was all held together as always by the presence and superb acting of Michael C. Hall as Dexter. The entire reason this season seems a little subpar is the casting. DEXTER has always cast the perfect people from Jimmy Smits to John Lithgow. Edward James Olmos and Colin Hanks just don’t cut it here and the entire season is brought down a bit from it. The story line of religion is a good one and it is handled well here as we see Dexter struggle with it. Mos Def as Brother Sam brought a superb depth but the growing horror and suspense in the later episodes here totally lacked in true intensity due to Colin Hanks just not being able to handle the characterization he was given. Luckily, Michael C. hall runs the show and each episode still rings true due to him. Season 6 also has added emotional depth and intensity due to the welcome development of Debra, Dexter’s sister played superbly by Jennifer Carpenter. She has always been a major player in the show but this seasons her role becomes eve more complex and imoportant.
Bottom line, DEXTER is such a great show that each season will have much discussion of how it held up to the others. Season 6, though not the best, is still great and is a must own for DEXTER fans. And the blu ray is definitely the way to see it. Highly recommended.

A DEXTER ADDICT TO THE END
It seems strange to be fascinated with a show about a serial killer who kills serial killer but there is something addicting about DEXTER. The show keeps going on and on and the writers keep coming up with more serial killers and more scenarios for Dexter. Dexter is always one step of his pals at Miami Metro when he conducts his own investigation. Dexter could be the Sherlock Holmes of Miami if his obsession didn’t have a macabre tone.
Rocky relationships are always at the heart of Dexter. LaGuerta and Batista, Debra and Quinn, and Dexter and everyone. The relationships are so intertwined and involved. It’s hard to imagine how Miami Metro ever solves a crime. Season 6 seems creepier and more gruesome that any others. Dexter is evolving and beginning to be curious about religion and faith as he enrolls Harrison in a Catholic pre-school. It’s perfect timing as Miami’s newest serial killings appear to be religious in nature and based on the Book of Revelation and the Apocalypse.
Edward James Olmos as Professor James Gellar and his dedicated student Travis Marshall played by Colin Hanks are this seasons diabolical killers. They become known as the Doomsday Killers (aka DDK). Things are more serious as these killers think they are following the word of God. One of the creepiest murders is related to the Four Men of the Apocalyse. You have to see it to believe what the writers have come up with on this one.
Dexter’s mptivations and religious ambiguity are tested when he meets Brother Sam played by Def Mos. Brother Sam is a reformed ex-convict and drug addict who has seemed to have found God. Could be be the Doomsday Killer or has he really repented and switched to a life of doing good? A lot of questions are raised in this season’s episodes.
Even Debra begins to question her exact feelings for her adopted brother Dexter.
In pure Dexter classic form, this season is full of surprising plot twists and our Dexter continues to survive near fatal escapades and still stay ahead of his Miami Metro coworkers. Miami must be one dangerous city with all the serial killers running around every year. There also must a lot of open cases in Miami as Dexter finds and disposes of the killers just as Miami Metro is steps away. The killers are never found so do the good people of Miami live in fear? Fortunately, DEXTER is a writer’s fantasy and the show just keeps us addicted to the story.

Amazing as always…One of the top 10 TV shows of all time
Just watched the whole season this weekend and I loved it as I have loved each season. It never fails to throw you for a loop as soon as you think you know what’s going on. This season is no different. Is it my favorite season? To hard to say after just watching it but I can say I can’t understand any fans of Dexter, which you pretty much would be if your buying Season 6, not enjoying it. This is a show that I love with actors that are great and writing that is always edge of your seat and smart. I love each season and can’t understand anyone giving this season lower than a 4 out of 5 ESPECIALLY if you are a fan of the show. You pretty much know what you are in for.
Anyway, I highly recommend it and would say if your in no hurry to buy it, definitely wait until it goes down to $24.99 which is what I got it at the day before it came off pre-order. I’m glad I bought it when I did as I see just a couple days later it’s back up to $37!
Bottom line, if you like Dexter, you will like season 6!
******IF YOU PREORDERED IT AND THEY CHARGED YOU $37.86 WHICH IS WHAT IT WAS FOR SINCE IT WAS MADE AVAILABLE FOR PREORDER, CALL AND TELL THEM YOU WANT A REFUND AND THE PRICE SHOULD BE $24.99 AS WHEN I ORDERED IT, IT WAS STILL ON PREORDER AND HAD DROPPED TO $24.99 LITERALLY THE DAY BEFORE IT WAS RELEASED*******
