When the challenge of a long distance relationship is bestowed upon this young couple, the question arises – will distance really make their hearts grow fonder?

Dexter: New Blood (Voot Select)
Who will be Dexter’s new kill? This question has kept us hooked for the entire duration of the show – Dexter.

Hall), is returning with a new identity, in a new place. Catch the 10-episode SHOWTIME special event series only on Voot Select from November 8, 7:30am.
The eight-season run of the original Dexter starred Hall as Dexter Morgan, a complicated and conflicted blood-spatter expert for the Miami police department who moonlights as a serial killer.
