Showtime has confirmed that it currently has no plans to revive Dexter, following ‘slow news day’ rumors over Thanksgiving that the series was set to return.
Despite the contentious nature of the series finale, Showtime had expressed interest in revisiting Dexter.at some point in the future, with network president David Nevins saying in January 2014:
“We continue to talk about it. If we were to do it, we have to have a very good reason to do it. It has to feel like it’s a new show. I’m not interested in doing it if it’s just a continuation. If we were to do it, I would only do it with Michael.”
While there are no immediate plans to revive Dexter, the temptation to bring the series back from a financial perspective is unlikely to fade.
Stay tuned as we continue to monitor the TV afterlife for signs of a Dexter comeback…
