Andrew and Charlie discuss the Season 8 premiere of Dexter in the first "official" episode of Avenging Angels. Are the supporting characters being set up for important developments, or is it more of the same? Do the challenges offered by the new character of Dr. Vogel seem like a compelling direction for the show to take? Do the writers fully realize how they've developed Dexter's "code" in the past? And perhaps most important of all, is the new Dexter/Debra dynamic an appropriate one? Plus, Andrew and Charlie figure out which characters they'd like to see killed off and come up with a great idea for a spin-off show.
