Dexter: Original Sin Season 1 Episode 1 Overview, Image Released

Check out the premiere overview for Paramount+ with Showtime and Showrunner Clyde Phillips' Patrick Gibson-starring Dexter: Original Sin.

With less than two weeks to go until Paramount+ with Showtime and Showrunner/EP Clyde Phillips' (Dexter, Nurse Jackie) Patrick Gibson-starring Dexter: Original Sin hits our screens (streaming Dec. 13; airing Dec. 15th), we're still processing the official trailer that was released late last month. Not only did it offer us our best look yet at the prequel series, but it also dropped some ten-ton hints about "Resurrection" that we didn't see coming. With that in mind, we have a look at the official overview for S01E01: "Original Sin" and an image from the episode of Christian Slater as Dexter's father, Harry Morgan.
