The marketing campaign in Spain emphasized the series as a second chance. Press releases from Movistar+ highlighted the return of Michael C. Hall as the tormented forensic expert and the involvement of original showrunner Clyde Phillips, who had left the series after its critically acclaimed fourth season. The promise was clear: this was not just another season, but a dedicated effort to provide a worthy conclusion for a character whose original send-off in 2013 was almost universally panned.
