With its latest sequel now on streaming, Dexter remains one of the biggest crime drama franchises on television. Nearly 20 years ago, Dexter introduced audiences to a chilling but complex antihero in Dexter Morgan, who channels his dark urge to kill into hunting down other deadly killers. As he tried to hide his double life as a vigilante and support his family, Dexter became a compelling but unconventional portrait of a serial killer.
Since the original series premiered in 2006, Dexter has spawned the prequel series Original Sin, as well as the sequel New Blood. More recently, actor Michael C. Hall returned to play his iconic lead character in Dexter: Resurrection, with its first season premiering in 2025. The series has since premiered its second season on streaming.
The show picked up weeks after New Blood, in which Dexter took a bullet for his son Harrison and ended up in a coma. In season 1, Dexter tries to make things right with Harrison after finding him in New York City, only for his dark past to catch up to him as he faces a wealthy group of serial killers. Season 2 shows Dexter dealing with a midlife crisis and two new serial killers in the Big Apple, played by Dan Stevens and Brian Cox.
So far, the second season has received an 89% “Fresh” rating from critics on Rotten Tomatoes. Meanwhile audiences have given it a 97% score on the Popcornmeter. With so much more set to go down in the coming weeks, here’s how you can stream the new season of Dexter: Resurrection.
Where and when can I watch Dexter: Resurrection?
Stream Dexter’s latest adventure on Paramount+
As of October 30, the first episode of Dexter: Resurrection season 2 is available to stream. The show will continue to release a new episode every Friday until its tenth and final episode on January 1, 2027. In the meantime, you can stream every episode from the show’s first season on Paramount+
Since Dexter: Resurrection is owned by Skydance, the series is available primarily on the company’s flagship streaming service. However, Dexter falls under the Showtime banner, so you can only stream the series with a Paramount+ Premium subscription, which costs $13.99 per month. This membership comes with ad-free streaming and full access to the Showtime streaming library.
You can also stream Dexter: Resurrection on services like Hulu, Amazon Prime Video, The Roku Channel, and YouTube TV. However, you’ll need to purchase the Paramount+ with Showtime add-on to stream the show from these outside platforms. Should you choose to purchase Paramount+ Premium, you will be able to stream every episode in every series in the Dexter franchise.
You can stream Paramount+ from its website or by using the platform’s official app on supported devices. These include iOS and Android mobile devices and Smart TVs from LG, Android, Samsung, and Vizio. You can also stream it through streaming sticks/boxes like Roku, Amazon Fire TV, Apple TV, Chromecast, Xbox, and PlayStation.
While New Blood and Original Sin struggled to live up to fans of franchise’s first series, Resurrection has presented a strong comeback for Dexter Morgan. The fact that it was the only sequel to get a second season shows that it has put the franchise back in the right direction. Overall, with a strong cast and tight writing, Resurrection has given audiences plenty of reasons to tune in to its second season on Paramount+.
