Everything's on the Table When Showtime's Dexter Returns to The Movie Network and Movie Central

• Season 7 premieres Sunday, September 30 at 9 p.m. ET/PT
• Season opener available for free online and on demand following its premiere

TORONTO, Sept. 11, 2012 /CNW Telbec/ - After a season finale that ended with one of the series' most shocking moments, Astral's The Movie Network (Eastern Canada) and Corus Entertainment's Movie Central (Western Canada) present an explosive new season of Showtime's Dexter, beginning Sunday, September 30 at 9 p.m. ET/PT, day-and-date with Showtime in the U.S. Following its premiere, the episode will be available in Eastern Canada to sample free-of-charge, online and on demand.

When Dexter returns, Dexter Morgan (Michael C. Hall in his Emmy^®-nominated and Golden Globe^®-winning role) is finally forced to confront his greatest fear after Debra (Jennifer Carpenter) witnesses his ritualistic slaying of the Doomsday Killer. Now Deb knows the secret of his Dark Passenger, and the Code that their father Harry (James Remar) instilled in him as a young boy. But as Deb tries to reconcile the unfathomable idea that her beloved, mild-mannered brother is Miami's most notorious serial killer, Dexter is still pulled by his natural impulses to seek out the guilty and exact his brand of vigilante justice, which leads him on the trail of a brutal mobster (Ray Stevenson).

Along the way, Dexter meets Hannah McKay (Yvonne Strahovski), a strong, independent woman with a past that she's struggled to put behind her. As a turn of events leads Miami Metro Homicide to ask for her help in solving some old cases, Dexter works with her and begins to wonder if there's more to this woman than she's professed.

Dexter also stars Desmond Harrington, C.S. Lee, Lauren Vélez and David Zayas. In addition to Ray Stevenson and Yvonne Strahovski, Season 7 guest stars include Jason Gedrick, Katia Winter and Santiago Cabrera.
