About this converter
Dexter seasons run 10 to 12 episodes on Showtime lists. New Blood and Original Sin at 10 each hold the revival tiers. Seasons 1 through 8 at 12 each hold the classic band with zero variance. That makes a classic season just over one and one tenth times a revival season. The format never wavers across eight original seasons, so the table reads flat except the two revivals. All rows pin official lists.
How to use it
Pick two seasons and a unit in the top row. The three boxes below stay linked. Change any box and the other two update. One box holds a count of the first season, one holds the matching count of the second, one holds total episodes. Try Season 4 against New Blood.
Resurrection sequel counts live on their own pages and are not mixed into rows here. Webisodes stay out of season rows. Split airings count once per episode. Prequel and revival rows stay labeled as such. Early Cuts webisodes stay out of season rows. Dark Defender comics stay out of season rows. Blood slide boxes recur across seasons outside count rows.
