“Cable Ratings: ‘Dexter’ Finale Shatters Showtime Records”

Not surprised:

The season four finale of Showtime’s Dexter shattered records for the pay cable network Sunday, Dec. 13.

The episode became the most-watched episode of an original series in network history, posting a 71% gain over the season three finale with 2.575 million viewers at 9 p.m., and 3.078 million viewers when the 11 p.m. replay is factored in. This is the first time a Showtime original series has attracted over 3 million in a single night.

And I’ll bet that almost none of those 2.575M viewers — myself included — anticipated the really huge freakin’ plot twist at the end. 

Any other Dexter fans? Were you blown away by the ending in last night’s episode?
