Waiting for season 6 of Dexter is murder, but here’s something to tide you over — a first look at an image from the first episode! (We pause for a SPOILER ALERT.) Witness blood splatter analyst/serial killer Dexter Morgan (Michael C. Hall) squatting by a stitched-up corpse while preparing an evidence bag of… baby snakes? “That is the first mysterious kill linked to Professor Gellar that’s going to cross Dexter’s path and let him know that he’s up against a killer, the likes of which he hasn’t seen before,” exec producer Scott Buck tells EW, referencing the charismatic religious studies professor that will be played by Edward James Olmos. “This is a person who’s sending out a message, and Dexter can’t wait to figure out what that message is.” To see another image from the new season, which debuts this fall, check out the issue of EW hitting newsstands on Friday. (UPDATE: New Dexter image is here!) And to read more from Buck on season 6, click here.

This picture looks like it could be from any one of the previous five seasons.
Yup.
“EW Exclusive!”
Almost sickening how they desperately cling to this tired headline strategy as if it gives them a shred of credibility.
“Follow Dan on Twitter!”…if you’re an 8 year old with learning disabilities.
A REAL exclusive would be Dexter standing over LaGuerta’s corpse.
Now THAT’S must-see TV!
Shocker.
I miss Doakes and his endless supply of “MotherF*****”
Still lukin like a killer Dex..
Quite possibly the most retarded comment EVER.
Nope. Just the TRUEST.
Second truest.
Every other season has had baby snakes, has it? You CLEARLY watch the show.
Sasha has to be one of the most lost halfwits in EW history. All of her comments are nitpicky and simple. Sasha CLEARLY knows how to interpret the message in the first comment…completely literally as a 7 year old would.
Nope it aint. I have watched ALL 5 previous Seasons and this was not from any of them.. And just to let you know i just watched all 5 seasons this past month..
Don’t take everything so literally, you halfwit.
He’s making a little joke about how this “exclusive photo” is pretty lame and uninteresting. We’ve seen Dex 50 crimes scenes examining bodies.
Its not! If you have seen all the 5 seasons you would be knowing!
“Follow Dan on Twitter”…if you’re an 8 year old simpleton.

Name me one season where Dexter found a body with baby snakes in it… you tool.
This comment looks like it could be from any one of the previous five seasons.
How original, you changed one word in my comment to attempt to mock me! Good job!
Yeah, that’s actually very funny.
Is it? You need to get out more.
I’m not the first to say this but originality is overrated.
OMG! Need to see this!
OHHH I cant wait
It is his job…he leans pver corpses a lot…
yeah this comment could be from any 5 seasons also
I cant wait for season 6 havent missed one yet and dnt plan on it. Will Dexter find love again?
It obviously isn’t if you’ve seen the previous 5 seasons
Damn, there are some really dim bulbs on this board.
Dexter is so into his job.
micheal c. hall is sooo sexy!!!!
when does the new season START
September.. I think I saw the release date as Sept 20th.
Way to give up who’s going to be the Big Bad for the season, and to give up why he’s bad. I guess I don’t need to see the season now. Thanks, EW for some serious spoilers.
Agreed. Such spoiler crap.
It’s not exactly a major spoiler as Showtime already said who the big bad would be. Kinda like what they did with John Lithgow
the “bad guy” is colin hanks…and he “dexters”… dexter
You idiot how can this be a spoiler when this has been the running premise the entire 5th first seasons.
I love “Dexter”!!!! Came back asap!!!!!
That’s definitely Quinn next to him lol
It’s Deb.
That’s Quinn. I wonder what”s gonna hapen to him in season 6. My guess he’ll die.
pls go, it’s Deb
thats quinn huh? some people are so f_ucking clueless its unreal.
Everyone complaining about spoilers it says so at the top, and just because you know who the bad guy is does not ruin anything. We knew from casting in season 4 who the Big Bad was and look how that turned out. True fans remember-nothing is what it seems on Dexter.
