Summary
Dexter Morgan is living under an assumed identity in the small town of Iron Lake, New York, attempting to escape his past. When evidence of a nearby murder surfaces, his carefully suppressed urges resurface, drawing him back into dangerous patterns. As he begins hunting again, Dexter must navigate the risks of exposure in his new community.
Clyde Phillips created Dexter: New Blood, a crime, drama and thriller miniseries from 2021. A typical episode runs 50 minutes. It is rated TV-MA. It stars Michael C. Hall, Clancy Brown and Julia Jones. It was made in the United States.
1,062 IMDb reviewers rate with enough spread for a personal baseline to be measured, and those are the ones the calibrated score reads; a separate, broader pool of 1,135 reviewers with at least two reviews each feeds the raw-average track. Its in-cohort standing is measured against the other 1,093 2020s miniseries, not against the whole corpus. A second review pool sits behind it as well: 185 Rotten Tomatoes reviewers clear the same calibration test, and Rankquant scores them separately.
How the score was built
We compare the reviewers of this title against every other title those same people reviewed. Each review is scored relative to the reviewer's own baseline — a 7/10 from a hard grader sits well above their average, while a 7/10 from a generous grader sits below theirs. Every reviewer then counts the same, so the result is a calibrated consensus rather than a raw average.
- Global percentile
- Where Dexter: New Blood lands against every title we rank.
- In-cohort percentile
- The same comparison narrowed to its cohort — titles of the same format released in the same decade. A 1970s film is judged against 1970s films, not against last year's streaming series. Ranked against TV Mini Series · 2020s (1,094 titles).
- AI-adjusted percentile
- The same reviewer-normalized score, corrected for how much confidence the sample supports: thin samples are pulled toward the corpus average. Each title keeps the share n / (n + 53) of its measured distance from the average, where n is its calibrated-reviewer count, and the result is ranked on the same scale as the global percentile.53 is the median sample size across everything we rank. Here n is 1,062.
