Dexter Morgan returns on November 7th, and Michael C. Hall, Clyde Phillips and Jennifer Carpenter tell us what to expect in the new season. This 2-minute behind-the-scenes video was uploaded on Showtime's official YouTube channel on Tuesday, but it was unlisted, meaning that you couldn't see it if you're a subscriber, or searched it.
It was finally (officially) dropped by the network yesterday via Twitter, and we're here today to analyze it. Apart from the BTS interviews, this video offers a better look at the new season of Dexter, plus, we finally have legit footage of Deb's return as Dexter's new Dark Passenger.
Continue reading for the full breakdown (40+ screenshots), and beware of possible spoilers!
First things first, let's start with the behind-the-scenes interviews by Michael, Clyde, and Jennifer.

Michael C. Hall:
"I'm excited to put something out there that answers some questions that have been floating around. Which essentially is... what happened to this guy?"
"The fact that Clyde along with Scott Reynolds and Marcos Siega, one our foundational directors would be coming in, gave me that sense that there was a collective appreciation for the fundamentals of the Dexter DNA."
"Dexter is in a fictional town called Iron Lake in upstate New York. He, under an alias have been able to cobble together an actual life. He can have a real life, but as you can imagine something's probably got to give."
"It's something that feels fresh and new and bold."
"People might miss the sunshine, but the snow is pretty cool too."

"To take a show and give it a completely fresh start, a completely new look was really enticing".
"This is a man who has been working for almost a decade to change himself".
"It will be satisfying and controversial".

Jennifer Carpenter:
"Dexter's been away for nearly a decade... what kind of monster would he be?!"
