True Blood - Part 4

[Donnie Darko]

We needed a on-screen shocker death. Since Tara wasn't worthy of dying on screen.

They should've just left Tara dead the first time.

 

[The Shape]

I actually think this finale was worse than Dexter's.

Pretty much nothing happened. And a wedding? Really, True Blood? What a waste of time.

 

[ravn0s]

i'm glad they killed off bill. when sookie started hearing his thoughts, i was afraid they were going to turn him human.

 

[cheungcheung]

finale was on par with the rest of this past season - slow and boooooooooooooorring

 

[DrDoom]

We need a Gif of Eric in the rice-burner lmao

Hoyt and Jessica getting married makes absolutely no sense considering he doesnt even know her and in his mind just met her like 2 days ago and now he wants to marry her? How stupid is this. I thought he at least got his memories back when he slept with her but that didnt happen

Pam and Eric were in the beginning and then disappear for the bulk of the episode till that flash forward. Awful considering the stakes seemed to be higher with them. Id rather they had made more about their predicament instead of ending it so quickly

The show actually shocked me with Bill's death. I know some speculated that he would become human as the dialogue definitely alluded to that, but nope, he got a true death as a vamp. It was cruel of him to ask Sookie to do it though

The actress they got to play Little Tara was perfect. That voice was uncanny

Overall a very underwhelming finale. I dont feel the show needed to fast forward twice into the future and given the nature of this show, I didnt like how it was all tied up in a perfect little bow. That final dinner was a bit much

 

[Longshot777]

WTH!! Where are the Were Panther Babies???!! hehe

Anyways,

It was a sweet happy ending but very poor finale.

So Eric and Pam could have easily done that to the Yakuza yet waited until now??

Well at least HBO now has a free slot for a much better show now.

If David Fincher's Utopia is as half as good as the UK version HBO will have found a worthy replacement show.

The wedding part dragged but I'm satisfied with the ending. The Eric/Pam parts were the best.

 

[kaijunexus]

I've said for a while that they should have ended the series with season 5. Everything in this show was slowly building to the ultimate revealing of The Authority. Obviously, there were other things happening along the way, but we just kept being introduced to higher and higher ranks of vampires. They're finally revealed in season 5. This was the peak. Bill should have consumed Lilith's blood mid-season, with the series/season finale being his ultimate demise and the destruction of The Authority. The end.

Instead, we get a half-good season 6 (Good being the vampire prison, BAD BAD BAD being the Willow plot. My god. So bad.) followed by an all-bad season 7 of melodrama, ridiculously rushed character arcs, and small-time threats compared to previous seasons. Just awful.

I'm glad it's over. And just in time too...the Strain is bringing vampires back to their horror roots and I'm loving it!!

Yup. My thoughts exactly. I usually watch episodes twice. Don't think I can bring myself to watch this boring episode again.

 

[Leenie]

Easily the best part of the entire episode.

 

[Rowsdower!]

Easily the best part of the entire episode.

LOL as soon as I saw that, I knew it would instantly be available in gif format. Eric, Pam and Jason were the only good parts of this finale. The rest of it... f*** this show. Sookie lived happily ever after with Faceless Bearded Turkey Fryer. Seriously, True Blood? Meh, who cares. At least it's over.

 

[squeekness]

Easily the best part of the entire episode.

Eric and Pam were the best parts of this entire season. Looks like they had a lot of fun.

How many shows use that title lol. Fox is also starting a reality show named Utopia

LOVED the first season of the british show, didnt know they started a second season till now

So Fincher's remaking it for US on HBO?

 

[agentorange]

So, if Sookie ended up with random faceless guy, what was the point of Alcide dying? I mean couldn't he have given her a normal life? Seemed pointless....or I guess just as pointless as everything else but slightly more so.

Lmao yeah the faceless guy thing was pretty stupid, there was really no point of killing off Alcide or Bill she could have been with either of them at the end but instead they decided to go with an unknown dude.

 

[The Joker]

I was expecting to be disappointed by the finale, but I had no idea I would be this disappointed. The Yakuza were pathetic. I was expecting some kind of epic showdown at Sookie's, but instead they're dispatched easily in minutes before even getting there. Why the hell Eric and Pam didn't do this from the get-go instead of acting like they're under threat from them I don't know.

So many scenes in this episode were boring. Bill and Sookie, Sookie and Reverend Daniels, the wedding....a show's finale is supposed to be exciting. Instead we got what has to be one of the most boring episodes of the series if not the most boring. The only pleasant surprise was they killed off Bill. I was expecting them to go the predictable way and have it end with him and Sookeh together going off happy ever after.

Everything felt like it had to be rushed and wrapped up quickly. Zap forward a few years and Jason is married with kids. Sookie is preggers and married to some unknown husband. Throw in some cameos from Sam, Arlene, Holly, and a blink and you'll miss him shot of Lafayette (a disgrace that he was absent for the bulk of the episode).

What a sad end to the show. But then this show has been limping along since season 4 and only rose from the ashes on a small handful of occasions, IMO. It's just finally been taken off life support and put out of it's misery.

I'll always enjoy seasons 1-3 immensely though.

 

[DrDoom]

And is it just me or were the years for the flash-fowards WAY off, the dinner scene was only 4 years later(1 year jump+3year jump) but Jason's oldest daughter was alot older than 4

 

[Rowsdower!]

I must say that one thing this episode did well was showcase Anna Paquin's legs one last time. I'll miss those.

Other than that... yeah, how the hell could they barely include Lafayette in the finale? Ugh. And as much as I love Erik and Pam, it really makes no sense that they couldn't easily dispatch the Yakuza guys from the get-go.

Must be that Fae blood.

I don't think this show should have even went past season 2 as Season 3 was when the show REALLY started to go down hill and it only got WORSE from there.

Yep, Fincher is remaking it for HBO.

The Second season finished last week in the UK.

Jessica Hyde is 25% Lisbeth Salander, 25% Marla Singer and 50% Sarah Connors.

What was so awful for you about season 3?

 

[CB Fan]

They should've ended the only way a show like this should end, with a good old fashioned orgy scene featuring past and present characters dead and alive.

Season 5 was definitely more fitting for a series finale. I like how it ended on a cliffhanger and that Billith stuff should have been bigger than it actually was. I would have been fine with the season 5 finale staying in tack and then the show come back a few months later for maybe a 3 episode epilogue of sorts to tie up that arc. The stakes seemed to be much higher for everyone and they could have really built up Bill as the big bad to take the series out. Would have been better than this crap
