  1. as a finale to the series it sucks but the structure of the show wasn't as depended on an ending like other shows were - LOST, HIMYM, new Battlestar Galactica, and of course Game of Throne. Those shows made the audience think the writers had a well-crafted story prepared for them with all the mysteries and character arcs waiting to be answered at the end only to find out that the writers had little to no idea what they were doing for various reasons.

  2. I can understand fan's being upset with Dexter's ending but it's not in the same league as LOST, Battlestar Galactica, and Game of Thrones or even the new Star Wars series. Dexter was a show that really only had several possible endings - death, capture, or escape. Or it could have ended without an ending leaving the audience wondering at his fate in a kind of 70s film-making style. Even with the lumberjack ending have it end with him seeing a news clip about a killer in the area and end with a shot on his face with the question will he return to his old habits lingering. The other shows though promised not only an end from Episode 1 but an answer to all the mysteries they presented from the beginning and along the way. And in both these shows failed spectacularly rendering both rewatching and watching for the 1st time knowing the endings a pointless endeavor.
