Satisfy Your Dark Passenger With The New Dexter Companion App By Showtime Networks

September 23, 2010
There are only about 80 hours left until the season 5 premiere of Dexter, but if you're like me, you've been excited for the last few months already.  What better way is there to channel and satisfy that excitement than with a dedicated Dexter series companion app? Most, but not all, of the content included in the app could already be found in the free Showtime companion app, but you don't hear me complaining one bit. The new Dexter app from Showtime Networks gives Dexter fans an episode guide, schedule information, episode reminders via push, lots of full and sample videos, Twitter and Facebook integration, a few iPhone wallpapers at Retina display native quality, and a Dexter social trivia game. The episode guide gives access to a brief synopsis, schedule information, any associated video clips, and a chance to enable a reminder for every episode up to two weeks away. The Extras section includes links to Dexter on Twitter, Dexter on Facebook, iPhone wallpapers, iPhone games, podcast, previous seasons to purchase via iTunes, and soundtracks to purchase via iTunes. The Videos section includes one full episode and a huge assortment of clips from Comic-Con, trailers, behind-the-scenes, and episode snips. The trivia game is a very nice touch. The game has 3 rounds with more than a handful of questions per round. Round 1 "The Show" is anything related to any part of the series. Round 2 "The Man" is anything related specifically to Dexter. Round 3 "Forensics" is a bit trickier, as it doesn't focus on the show, but rather any serial killing facts in actual history. You have 30 seconds to answer each question. Pit your knowledge against Facebook friends or go solo, and post the results to your Facebook wall. The Showtime Networks Dexter app is available now in the App Store at no cost. Don't miss the season 5 premiere of Dexter on Sunday, September 26th at 9:00 PM EDT. I'll leave you with the Dexter season 5 trailer and the season 5 promo "Dexter: It's Already Over". The song in the promo is Storm by Lifehouse. [gallery link="file" columns="4"]
