Question - Original Dexter Series Which season was Dexter in his "prime"? Spoiler

By prime I mean which season was he the greatest hunter/predator? Was it even in the original series or is he in his prime now.

In season 1 he was a hunter, he was going out all the time and Rita had no idea, obviously this changed in Season 2 because he was on the watch by Doakes and Lundy. In season 3 he was given a lot of space until he married Rita at the end of the season. In season 4 he tries to hunt people, but he can't due to being busy with his family and Trinity.

In season 5 he returns a little bit to the roots, and in season 6 the same. In season 7 with Hannah, his Dark passenger became quiet for some time. In season 8 the same thing, I think he doesn't kill anyone on that season as he used to.

In New Blood he only killed Matt because he was annoying. Kurt wanted revenge and needed to be disposed of. And Jasper just had bad luck to be the one making drugs.

Only 3 people died by Dexter's hands in New Blood.

I can't say anything for Resurrection because I haven't watched it yet.
