TV: True Blood (Finale)

True Blood
Drama, Fantasy, Mystery

I've been saying to the little sister since this last season began that everyone would die... well, that didn't happen. As soon as Eric (Alexander Skarsgard) was cured I realised there would be a stereotypical happy ending. I was actually terribly disappointed in the finale: it felt like they had just tacked an ending onto a normal episode, like they had only been given two episodes to wrap it all up instead of an entire season.

Highlights were the Eric and Ginger (Tara Buck) finally getting it on, Bill (Stephen Moyer) splooshing all over Sookie (Anna Paquin), Pam (Kristin Bauer van Straten) and Eric's infomercial for New Blood and Lafayette (Nelson Ellis) and James (Nathan Parsons). *swoons* Points of annoyance: Alcide (Joe Manganiello) copping it to the head - I know, not this episode but it still stings! - Jessica (Deborah Ann Woll) and Hoyt's (Jim Parrack) whirlwind wedding... how did that make any sense? Oh, Hoyt, by the way, we used to date but I screwed your best friend and then made you forget all about it... now let's get married before my maker keels over: true love! And the ending... ugh!

Special mention of the reappearance of show favourites: Nan Stackhouse (Lois Smith) and Steve Newlin (Michael McMillan).

Now that it's all over I have to find a new show to have family date nights with...

2 out of 5 naked Eric's...cos why the hell not?! Umph...

TV: True Blood SE5 EP11

True Blood
Drama, Fantasy, Mystery

Are they imagining everything to do with Lillith? If not then why the hell is she telling both Bill (Stephen Moyer) and Salome (Valentina Cervi) that she chooses both of them? Or is it just their inner thoughts wishing that she had chosen them? If that's the case, then why did Bill run away from it? This is all terribly confusing.

Bill is being such an asshole! I hope Eric bashes that crap out of him. Poor Jessica (Deborah Ann Woll) thought she had escaped from her highly religious family the first time around, only to end up stuck with a born-again Bill. I thought she was doing a great job of convincing him that she had bought into it, I almost thought Bill had fallen for it! Damn eh? 

I am so glad that Nora (Lucy Griffiths) has changed her tune and that Eric (Alexander Skarsgard) isn't really a Sanguinista. They are such lovely siblings... *snickers*

What a night for Jason (Aussie, Ryan Kwanten) too huh? Poor Jason. First some random supe is after his sister, then Jessica half tries to eat him and finally Russell (Denis O'Hare) glamours him to show him and Steve Newlin (Michael McMillian) where the Fairies are! Holy crapola!

What are the humans going to do? What does our military have up their sleeves? The Sheriff that Tara (Rutina Wesley) killed was Rosalyn's (Carolyn Hennesy) progeny? Didn't see that coming, but Pam (Kristen Bauer van Straten) handing herself over was expected; she's only trying to get to Eric and Eric and Nora have escaped but where have they gone? Don't worry though, Sam (Sam Trammel) and Luna (Janina Gavankar) are there.... Things are all over the place aren't they?

Who the hell is Warlow?!? And did you see Russell take out that Fairy Elder?! This episode is warming up to one hell of a season finale! Bring it!

"Excuse me?"

"Do you like her music?"

"I'm sorry, I'm not that familiar with her music."

She doesn't really sing does she, she talks. I suppose that makes her some sort of a poet. That's alarming because her spelling is atrocious."
