In total, there are 10 seasons: the original eight, followed by Dexter: New Blood, which was released a decade later, and a prequel titled Dexter: Original Sin. Another installment is also on the horizon, set to premiere sometime in June.

Damn! That's a lot of episodes for me! smiley36 I checked Hotstar and saw 8 seasons there.

Loved itsmiley27....sci fi is my favourite and you explore human emotions well in a very simple manner, definitely as it was based as per kid's ka innocence perception toh enjoyed it truly....

Waise ye Mars Venus ko jyaada casual nhi bana diya....smiley36

Thank you so much, Bro! I'm glad that you liked my story. I'm also delighted that you think I explore human emotions in a simple manner. I enjoy reading stories that are written in straightforward language. Ruskin Bond expresses human emotions in lucid language. Ruskin Bond is one of the most popular children's authors in India. He writes good stories that focus on nature, emotions, friendship and childhood. Even though he mainly writes for children, he's a versatile author. He has the ability to write for adults too. He wrote a thriller named Susanna's Seven Husbands which was made into a Hindi movie named, Saat Khoon Maaf. Priyanka Chopra played the lead role in the movie. I like his book, The Blue Umbrella very much. The story is beautiful. The protagonist is a child who falls in love with a blue umbrella. You can read it. It's a very thin book. So, even non-readers can read the book. In The Blue Umbrella, he expressed several emotions such as joy, pride, envy, jealousy, remorse, kindness in lucid language. Then I saw Vishal Bharadwaj's Hindi movie, The Blue Umbrella based on the book. But I didn't like the movie. The book is way better than the movie. Btw, the characters of my story aren't kids. smiley36 Linda is a young woman. And Cynthia...well robots ki to age nahi hoti hai. smiley36 But I can say she looks like a young woman too.

Actually, I never wrote science fiction before. This story was an experiment. So, I wanted to keep the story short. I wanted to see whether I had the ability to write science fiction stories or not. I know interplanetary tourism seems strange. smiley36 It's very difficult to imagine that people are travelling to Mars and Venus instead of Bangkok and Bali. smiley36 But it's a science fiction story and a lot of unrealistic things happen in science fiction stories. Also, the year is 3075 in my story which it's totally different from 2025.

As far as suspense is concerned, I didn't want to write that kind of story. I was willing to write an emotional and reflective science fiction story. I wanted to explore the themes of identity, discrimination, acceptance, and finding worth in my story. That's why, there was no twist and suspense.

My thoughts:

You is back on track! Season 5 is definitely good! In fact, it's as interesting as season 1, 2 and 3. Season 5 restored my interest in You which died after watching season 4. The chapter of London ended with season 4. Joe Goldberg now lives in his own country, the USA like before. He has fallen in love again. I'm not surprised at all. smiley36 The new love interest has an ulterior motive. Now that's interesting. Henry is back! smiley41 He was a baby when Joe left him outside his friend's doorstep at the end of season 3. Now Henry is kid and lives with Joe and his wife, Kate.

My interest in watching a spin-off based on Henry

Season 5 is the final season of You. Will there be a spin-off? I don't know. But if the makers create a spin-off and make Joe's son, Henry the central character I'll definitely watch. In fact, I think they should make a spin-off based on the character of Henry. He has a lot of potential to become an intriguing character. Both his father, Joe and his biological mother, Love are murderers. In fact, Love was even more dangerous than Joe when she was alive. So, there's a high chance that Henry will become a serial killer as well. Genes influence a person's personality a lot. Even though both Joe and Love are killers, they are different from each other. When Joe is a calculated criminal, Love was an impulsive murderer. So, it would be interesting to see what type of serial killer Henry becomes as an adult. Will Henry exhibit the characteristics of his father who thinks he kills to protect people? Or will he show traits of his mother who was more self-aware?

The novels:

The series, You is based the books written by Caroline Kepnes. There're four novels in the book series and they're You, Hidden Bodies, You Love Me and For You and Only You. I'm more interested to listen to the audiobook version of You rather than reading the novel. That's because I'm really used to listening Joe's monologues. I listened to his inner monologues for 43 episodes. 7 episodes are left which I'll finish soon. So, it'll be difficult for me read the book in my voice. If I read the book in my voice, I may not feel connected to the book because I always heard all the thoughts of the central character in a man's voice. I know there're some differences between the novel, You and the show, You. I'm willing to know about those differences.

Here's the trailer of season 5:

I forgot to tag you, Bibliophile. I wrote my thoughts about a popular psychological thriller show.

Good!! Good!! Achcha laga sunke....and yes your distinction about time wrt writing was accurate nothing seemed too complicated nor faulty smiley36

Ruskin bond, I know The thief's story type bks maine school mein read ki thi.... actually I watch sci fi last I saw was Oppenheimer and marvel crafts....but this simplicity brought me upto 3rd ka Ash who used to see kiteretsu and Doraemon type toons....

Which had a blend of science along with elements of friendship, family, kids ki life and adventure....so yourd seemed to me a special theme I wanted thora aur intense conclusion but this was sweet as well....

If you will write next time tag karna....ideas bahut hai mere paassmiley36

Guys I just wanted to know the views about you all on this....

Due to health main ghar aaya tha I was visiting boriwali a city in Mumbai around 6am ke time par whenever I used to reach platform 4, mere saath just baaju wale ladies coach se ek college girl utarti thi in blue denim outfit long open hairs with face either covered or on other side, mujhe half an hour ke liye wahan baithna hota tha so I used to read a book ya kuch aur and aise lagbhag 7-8 din hua.... There used to be distance of around 5 metres between us pehle woh consistent tha she used to be there jab tak main book padh rha hun ya phir kuch earbuds laga ke jo bhi.....but 2-3 din baad distance kam hone laga maine coach change kiya toh ladki pta nhi kaise wahan bhi aa gayi....tabhi station ka woh area khaali rehta atleast 6:15 tak....

Don't know why mujhe thoda shakh hone laga so maine aakhiri ke dino mein notice kiya ki jaise main escalator leta tha woh wahan se kahin aur chali jaati thi in end time change karwaya aur main jahan gaya tha wahan se exit ke baad bhi woh ladki mujhe hospital ke bahar hi mili shaam ke waqt.....

I don't know ye kya tha fortunately maine waha jaana band kar diya aur kaam ho gaya but still I was thinking ye ignore maaru ya kuch serious tha....

And ek aur incident hai humare complex mein pehle jab main garden area mein kuch doston se aise hi baat karne gaya tha to freshen up..... wahan ek ladki ka scooty se accident ho gaya tha aur woh girl similar usi ki tarah thi....mujhe maalum pada tha ki she had some psychological trauma woh certain emotions process nhi kar paati ya phir turant stimuli work nhi karta because of childhood mein family problems.....ye baat mere school time ki hai....I don't know but aaj subah hi mujhe ye sapne mein click hua to draft mein likh diya tha.....

I wanted to write a story of 500 words and it wasn't possible to make the story intense within 500 words. I don't steal ideas from others and use in my stories.
