Dexter Spoilers – The Ratings
The rating continuously grows as it is averaging 7 million views every week hailing it as Showtime’s most-streamed show of all time. The 3.4 million views of Season 7 and Season 8 of the original series are what “Dexter: New Blood” is trying to match.
As the finale will air on January 9 next year, a lot has been asking about more installment in the future. Gary Levine, Showtime’s President of Entertainment, addressed the idea with Deadline during their recent interview: “Dexter: New Blood’ is a limited series and any further discussions of “Dexter” will have to wait until we finish airing the limited series and see where we are with our stories and our characters.”
“Dexter: New Blood’ was really designed to have a proper conclusion to the series, and I believe we will deliver that in the best possible way,” he added.
