While The origins has been broadcast on Canal+ since February 6, 2025, two Dexter series are already available: Dexter et New Blood. Two other series are in preparation and will soon be broadcast on the screens: Ressurection and a prequel of the Trinity killer. Faced with this universe that continues to expand, you can easily get lost if you are not familiar with the adventures of the famous serial killer. Here is everything you need to know about the different series of the Dexter universe.
What are the 5 series of the Dexter universe?
Dexter
The first is the original series, broadcast between 2006 and 2013, follows the adventures of Dexter Morgan, expert in legal medicine and serial killer which targets only criminals. Praised for its qualities when it was released, the series reaches heights and continues to gain momentum until season 4. The latter is cited as the best in Dexter’s history, thanks in particular to the performance of Michael C. Hall in the shoes of the anti-hero Dexter Morgan and an opponent now cult: Arthur Mitchell, the Trinity Killer (Trinity Killer), embodied by the charismatic John Lithgow.
This summit reached by Dexter allows him to enter the category of cult series, but it will also precipitate his fall. The original series struggles to maintain the same quality, up to a completely missed finish and a season 8 that many prefer to forget.
This series has 8 seasons and 106 episodes.

Dexter : New Blood
New Blood marks the return to the foreground of Dexter in 2021. This first spin-off takes place ten years after the original series and Dexter living under a new identity in Iron Lake. Far from Miami, the famous serial killer keeps strong links with the original season and this mini-series can almost be considered a season 9.
She tries to make up for the damage left by season 8 to offer an almost unexpected rebound in Dexter. This series also allows you to better discover your son Harrison.
The Dexter-New Blood series has 1 season and 10 episodes.
Dexter: Original Sin (or Dexter: Origins)
Original Sin landed at the end of 2024 in the United States. It has been broadcast since February 6, 2025 on Canal + and presents itself as a prequel that explores the youth of Dexter in Miami. The action takes place in the 1990s and Patrick Gibson lends his features to the young Dexter Morgan, accompanied by a five -star cast: Christian Slater (MR.ROBOT) in the role of Harry, the adoptive father, Patrick Dempsey (Gray’s Anatomy ) in the role Aaron Spencer or Sarah Michelle Gellar (Buffy against vampires) in that of Tanya Martin.
Even Michael C. Hall invites himself to the party as a voice-over of the episodes. With this series, we understand how the young student becomes the serial killer that we know in the original series and the youth of certain key characters of Dexter (Debra Morgan, Angel Batista, Maria Laguerta, Vince Masuka…).
The series Dexter: The origins Includes 1 season and 10 episodes.

Dexter : Resurrection
Unlike the previously mentioned series, Dexter: Runction has not yet been released. For the time being, we don’t know much except that she should follow New Blood events. We will find Michael C. Hall in the role of Dexter and the series should follow the steps of his son Harrison (Jack Alcott). The young version of the serial killer, embodied by Patrick Gibson in the Original Sin, will be present as a voice-over. Scheduled for the summer of 2025 in the United States, this suite will be able to count on the presence of actress Uma Thurman (Kill Bill) while James will notice his “ghostly” role of Harry and David Zayas that of Angel Batista.
The number of episodes is still unknown.
Prequel to the Trinity Killer
If you know little about the re -turn, the fourth series derived from Dexter is even more vague. Announced by Clyde Philips (showrunner of the first seasons of Dexter, New Blood and the origins), the prequel will be devoted to the youth of the unforgettable killer of the Trinity.
Iconic character of season 4 of Dexter, the Trinity killer will be entitled to his own series and John Lithgow will also be there. Arthur Mitchell’s iconic actor will be present as a voice-over, if we believe the first indiscretions about the series. We can expect an approach inspired by that of Dexter: The origins And his scenario was also written during the filming of Original Sin.
The number of episodes is still unknown.
