T2 WHATS UP! November 7 - 13, 2021 TV FEATURE BY KYLA BREWER TV Media W hen a popular television show ends, there are al- ways heartbro- ken fans who want more, espe- cially when they are unhappy with the finale. Most of the time they are out of luck, but every so often a series is so compelling it's resurrected. One such series is headed back to prime time in all its bloody glory. Michael C. Hall ("Six Feet Under") reprises his role as se- rial killer Dexter Morgan in the 10-episode special event series "Dexter: New Blood," premier- ing Sunday, Nov. 7, on Show- time. It's been 10 years since Dexter left Miami and headed north, and the new series finds him living under an assumed name in fictional Iron Lake, New York. TV viewers first met Dexter Morgan in 2006 when the origi- nal "Dexter" premiered on Showtime that October. Based on the Jeff Lindsay novel "Dark- ly Dreaming Dexter," the crime drama followed Dexter as he worked as a blood splatter ex- pert for the Miami police de- partment. At the same time, he led a secret life as a vigilante serial killer who hunted down other murderers who somehow escaped justice. In the end, (spoiler alert) he himself es- caped justice and was last seen working as a logger in Oregon — a resolution fans were not happy with, prompting them to clamor for a revival. "Dexter: New Blood" picks up with Dexter, now known as Jim Lindsay to the community of Iron Lake, where he works at Fred's Fish and Game, presum- ably selling knives and other hunting and fishing supplies. It appears that he has been suc- cessfully suppressing his urge to kill, which he calls his Dark Passenger. However, it looks like all that is about to change. "I may be a monster, but I am an evolving monster," Dexter says in an official "Dexter: New Blood" trailer, which was re- leased in September. In it, he also hints at what may be com- ing in the revival, adding, "Sometimes, I have an urge too strong to ignore." His Dark Passenger is not the only one to return. In July, Showtime confirmed that actress Jennifer Carpenter ("Limitless") would reprise her role as Dexter's sister, Debra Morgan, in "New Blood," which may have come as a surprise to those in the know because (spoiler alert) Dexter threw her body into the ocean in the Sea- son 8 finale. She may be dead, but she will appear to Dexter in some form or another through- out the new Showtime series. "Dexter" fans will see anoth- er familiar face from beyond the grave when John Lithgow ("3rd Rock from the Sun") makes a cameo as Arthur Mitchell, aka the Trinity Killer, from the original series. New to the "Dexter" universe is Julia Jones, who portrays Iron Lake's chief of police, Angela Bishop. She has fallen for Dex- ter/Jim, blissfully unaware of who he really is. In addition to her work on HBO's "West- world" and Disney's "The Man- Bentonville Acupuncture 5 x 5 continued on page T10 Michael C. Hall in "Dexter: New Blood" Television that slays "I was tIred of lIvIng In paIn" If you're suffering from Fibromyalgia you understand this sentiment all too well. Local resident Ann T. found herself at a turning point when she noticed her diagnosis started to take its toll on her marriage. "I was always angry because of the things I couldn't do anymore because of my fibromyalgia. that anger cycled through to depression and affected everyone around me, my husband more than anyone. It made our lives miserable." Fibromyalgia affects the entire body, and to make things complicated, it affects everyone's body a little differently. To make things even more complicated, those effects can change on a daily basis. Sometimes you're plagued with widespread muscle pain and fatigue, other days it's a headache and heightened sensitivity to touch. "I could barely stand to have the light weight of bedsheets touching me, much less a hug from my husband." Your primary care doctor will suggest dietary changes, pain liniments and pharmaceuticals to the point where your life is no longer ruled by Fibromyalgia, but instead it's ruled by a routine and pill regimen in order to avoid flare ups. Ann put it this way, "My life was no longer my own." In her own research Ann discovered that acupuncture can help ease pain and improve the quality of life of Fibro patients. She was then determined to find the best in the business which is how she discovered BAWC and Marsha Kaye, Dr of Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine. Marsha Kaye, DACM has over 15 years successfully treating difficult to manage chronic pain conditions using the time tested science of acupuncture integrated with modern medical advancements in healing and recovery. "I feel like a new person. My husband comes with me to my appointments and spends most of it thanking dr. Kaye for giving him back the woman he married. for the first time since we moved here, one of my neighbors told me I looked good! It's a miracle, I don't know how else to explain it." If you're looking for a doctor and a practice, Ann describes BAWC almost as enthusiastically as she does their treatments. "They understand your diagnosis and have proven solutions for chronic pain. Look no further than BAWC." For more information and to schedule a consultation call (479) 268-3375, but do so quickly!
