So I have a login for Hulu and have used it a few times on slow days at work, but I don't know much about it.

We don't have Showtime, but we really like Dexter. We just watched the first episode of Dexter Season 5 on iTunes as a free podcast, and I noticed that this first episode is also on Hulu. So I am now wondering, should I expect all of the episodes to become available on hulu, or is it only certain episodes? If they will all become available, how long after it airs on TV will it then show up online?

expect that to be the last episode you'll see for free.
 
So besides subscribing to Showtime, or waiting for it to show up on DVD/Netflix, is there anyway to get the show legally?

you could try your cable co's on demand but you probably can only get it free if you subscribe to showtime anyway and you wouldn't be able to pay for the on demand episodes by itself.

premium channels like hbo and showtime don't offer ways to watch their content unless you pay for it through your cable or satellite provider.
