Spinoffs of hit show “Dexter” are being planned at Showtime as the premium cabler rebrands to Paramount+ With Showtime and reconfigures its programming.

“Dexter,” which ran from 2006 to 2013 and followed forensic technician and serial killer Dexter Morgan (Michael C. Hall), is first on the docket. Following the success of “New Blood,” a sequel limited series that aimed to redo the much-hated “Dexter” series finale, Showtime has ordered a prequel series focused on Dexter’s origin story. Additionally, spinoffs focused on other characters, including the Trinity Killer, are in development.

The news comes amid a major shift for the Showtime brand. Paramount CEO Bob Bakish announced last week that Showtime’s cable network would be renamed to Paramount+ With Showtime while its streaming service would collapse into Paramount+. The consolidation also came with the cancellation and erasure from streaming for multiple series that Paramount deemed underperformers, including “American Gigolo” and “Let the Right One In,” as well as “Three Women,” which was completed and set to premiere in 2023.

Further details of the series are still to be confirmed…
