Tell me dear faithful readers – have you been watching this season of True Blood?
I do have to admit it was slow going for me this year – I watched the first episode, then wondered why was I so excited about it last year, then I watched a few episodes in a quick succession and presto – I was hooked again!
Yes I am aware it is ever so cheesy and sometimes downright bizarre but bloody hell True Blood is curiously good.
While I found some story lines rather slow going last year, this year I can actually say that there is not one story line I am not interested in. Given Jason and his stint at the Fellowship of The Sun was a bit boring for my taste but overall each and every character has been bringing the goods in this year. In fact (and if you have seen the last episode you will know what I am talking about) it was Jason that gave me the most horrible case of giggles. The writing has been of top notch quality over the last few episodes and the one liners are priceless.
Also is it just me or has this season been more vomit inducing then the last one? I realized early on I should never ever eat or snack during True Blood, but they have surpassed themselves this year (and I usually do not get gross out easily). I blame that Maryann woman a) she gives me the creeps, b) she is the main source of grossness this year and c) who in the world uses raw Kobe beef as a ritual sacrifice?! If Gordon Ramsay saw what she was doing he’d probably call her a stupid cow. Rightly so.
The only thing I don’t really get is the editing – have you noticed how scenes are cut off abruptly? I understand they want to create a cliffhanger at the end but sometimes they just do not make sense to me when they happen in the middle of the episode.
So tell me dear readers what is your take on True Blood? Love it or hate it?
Honestly, it is not half as bad as he keeps pointing out.
