An unexpected issue has surfaced on Paramount+ as viewers stream Dexter: Resurrection.
Dexter: Resurrection Season 1 may have wrapped up over a month ago, but for many fans, the binge-watching is only just beginning. Unfortunately, those planning a cozy rewatch or diving into the series for the first time were met with unexpected frustration, as Dexter: Resurrection suddenly became unplayable on Paramount+ due to a mysterious streaming error.
Over the past several hours, numerous subscribers have taken to social media to report that seven episodes of Dexter: Resurrection (specifically Episodes 4 through 10) are currently unavailable for streaming on Paramount+.
The issue has been ongoing and widespread, with fans unable to load or play the episodes despite them appearing in the episode list.
For some viewers, the problem is even more severe. Reports have surfaced claiming that the error affects the entire first season, not just the final seven episodes. In these cases, users say that while all ten episode thumbnails are still visible on the Paramount+ app or website, clicking “Play” only results in an error message.
Naturally, this has led to a wave of confusion and disappointment among Dexter fans eager to watch the full sseason.
Why the Episodes Won’t Play on Paramount+
While Paramount+ has not released an official statement yet, early speculation points to a possible legal or licensing issue related to streaming rights.
This is particularly puzzling, considering that Dexter: Resurrection is a Paramount property, produced under Showtime’s umbrella, both of which are owned by Paramount Skydance. If this is indeed the case, it may be a temporary rights or distribution hiccup rather than a deliberate removal.
When to Expect the Problem to Be Fixed
There’s some good news for frustrated fans. Several users have reported that the episodes are slowly becoming available again, with some regions regaining access as Paramount+ works to resolve the issue. However, others, including some of our readers at Dexter Daily, say the problem persists, and in certain cases, every episode of Dexter: Resurrection remains unplayable.
Paramount is reportedly aware of the outage and actively working to restore full functionality to all episodes. While no official timeline has been given, the issue should be resolved soon.
We’ll continue to monitor the situation closely and update you when Dexter: Resurrection becomes fully available again on Paramount+.
