A fuller version of the William S. Paley panel is available here [*SPOILERS for S1 AND s2 in the link]
1)Good turn out for the panel:
"Daniel Cereone (Coexecutive Producer), Sara Colleton (Executive Producer), John Goldwyn (Executive Producer), David Zayas (Detective Angel Batista), Lauren Velez (Lt. Maria Laguerta), Erik King (Sergeant Dokes), James Remar (Harry Morgan), Jennifer Carpenter (Debra Morgan), and of course Dexter himself, Michael C. Hall"
2)The theme for the second season sounds just right:
"Executive Producer Daniel Cereone ..... "The big challenge beyond the pilot of the show was what's the next episode? Beyond tracking the killer, we had to find reasons to root for Dexter. As much as viewers were hooked on the Ice Truck Killer, theories etc... the show isn't about that. ..... Going into the second season we think we have something equally compelling. Basically Dexter's search for meaning. Who am I? What is my purpose? Ultimately leading to questions of good and evil. This season we want to bring that question to the forefront. Why is he here? Who is he? What is his purpose?"
It sounds like these guys have really got a handle on the characters.
3) Masuka's now a regular. YAY!!
4) On fan reactions:
Erik King: 'I get a lot of, I'm watching you Mother Fu***r'
Well, you had better say something more interesting next season other wise that's all you'll ever get! Seriously, Doakes needs to develop a lot more in S2 because, right now, he's the only character who is still 2-D for me. Hopefully that little side-story about Doakes killing the Haitian guy who ran (can't remember his name or the episode) will be developed into something more substantial.
5) DVD release - only info is that it is probably before the S2 premiere so that means sometime before the end of September ... maybe .... perhaps!
