Dexter Season 6 Guest Stars.
I can’t wait for the new season! 
Everyone’s favorite serial killer is back for a new season. Showtime’s award winning TV series, Dexter, is back for its sixth season. Showtime released a teaser, a message from Dexter (Michael C. Hall), saying that he is feeling like his “old self again.”
The 30 second clip is a close up of Dexter’s emotionless face. But as the camera hones in on Dexter’s eyes, we begin to see blood swirling. Dexter’s demons are hungry.
The cast includes returning actresses Jennifer Carpenter as Debra Morgan and Julie Benz as Rita Bennett. Some new faces will include Colin Hanks (The Good Guys) and Molly Parker (Who Loves the Sun). Hanks will be playing the villain (Travis Marshall) and Parker will be in the shoes as Marshall’s sister and as an elementary school teacher.
Showtime has yet to release a premiere date, but we can expect the season to kick off sometime in the fall of 2011. Check out the teaser. Although it’s only 30 seconds, it speaks a lot.

When Jennifer Carpenter learned of how her character was to change so dramatically in the season five finale of “Dexter,” she was not happy. As Detective Debra Morgan, she let the unknown slayers of a serial killer go free. “I had a really hard time with that,” she admitted to Gold Derby, “because it sort of contradicted what I thought was true about what was at the core of Debra: things are right or wrong, and there is not a lot of grey area. She bled blue, and was a cop through and through.”
However, she came to realize the shift in her character’s philosophy was for the good of the series. “The key to moving forward in an episodic television show is connecting on a really personal level, not only for me but also for Debra. She certainly surprised me and surprised herself by the twist at the end when she unknowingly lets Dexter go.” Indeed, she was so pleased with the way the finale turned out that she might submit it if she is nominated for Supporting Drama Actress.
While Carpenter has yet to contend at the Emmys, “Dexter” and her ex, Michael C. Hall, who plays the title character have been nominated for the past three years running. While they went down to defeat to “Mad Men” and “Breaking Bad” star Bryan Cranston, last year John Lithgow won the Guest Drama Actor award for his multi-episode arc on the Showtime series.
