So yes I'm a bit behind this week (it's been quite hectic) but I did want to put down some comments about the True Blood finale. The bit with Rene was interesting but he was revealed as the killer last week and was dispatched pretty quickly this week. I'm not sure I understand Bill's romantic flesh-burning gesture since he couldn't help Sookie while he was incapacitated and it seems a bit ungrateful for Sookie to then choose Bill over her actual savior Sam. Nevertheless, it seems that the serial killer is dead although now there is the mystery of Lafayette. I sure hope he's a vampire because I will be quite put out if one of the most entertaining characters is just plain old dead.
Beyond that, the rest of the episode just turned me off. The whole bad girl preacher's daughter plot is horribly annoying (does anyone else want to reach through the TV and slap her?) and if she is going to be some sort of active plot device next season, I may find myself frequently hitting the fast forward button. The other irksome twist is the rich lady mystery woman - she clearly knows about Sam and his shape-shifting tendencies but what is she really doing to Tara? And is she doing the same thing to the hot guy with the guitar in the living room? Is it possible that she can turn people into shape shifters? I'm afraid I find these questions more irritating than interesting so let's hope someone handily disposes of her (and the bad girl preacher's daughter) when the show starts up again next summer.
