I haven't watched it yet, but if it's Tara dying, I won't be surprised. :lol:

Or maybe Sookie getting the gap in her teeth fixed. :lolol:

I watched last night's epsiode and thought it was kind of lame. I will still watch the rest of the series since it is the last.

Unfortunately, Sookie wasn't the one to go. Her speech at the church.. :eyes:

Oh, Pam is in Morocco looking for Eric.

I think I passed out for a sec...but I'm with you, it's the last season. Have seen 6 already, just one more and I don't have to be a masochist anymore! :banana:

So Tara has become the Kenny of True Blood.....

Maybe it's just my cynicism, but it seems like every actor on the show doesn't want to be there.

I predict this show will easily surpass Dexter as crummiest final season EVAH!

Something wonderful to me would be seeing Jessica naked :waits:

Since that didn't happen, I didn't find anything about this episode that I liked

I want to pile on the "ugh...I've come this far" opinion. I thought maybe it would be decent since they're ending it, but the premier just seemed to be all over the place and lost my attention. I was fucking around on my phone (probably on here) and only paying half attention after the first 20 minutes. It was just dumb.

I'm grinding it out too.

Panda....yeah. I don't know if this will be worse than Dexter because I don't expect anything from true blood. I think my expectations of Dexter based on the quality of the 1st 4 seasons contributed to the huge letdown. With True Blood the bar is so low I don't think I'll be let down.

"Done some good stuff" is a strange way to say "poisoned everything he's touched".

I'm momentarily lucky in that I held off on ever watching True Detective and House Of Cards until I bought the Blu-ray seasons last week just before my wife got out of the hospital so we'd have something to watch together in the evenings. Watching the first EP of True Blood and then watching a couple episodes of True Detective was like Y2K-Janes opening for Led Zeppelin circa 1974.

i liked the first episode a lot. i'm sure though it will be a frustrating series with nothing explained.

As a big Lost fan also I really enjoyed The Leftovers. I hope it's not drawn out over too many seasons, just tell the story. It's based on a book so there must be a beginning and an end.

I was going to hold on and ride out the final True Blood season but I think I'm officially tapping out after last night. I don't even know what's going on, too much going on at once and all of it is dumb.

I gave my wife so much shit about resubbing to HBO after last night's episode. I can't decide if the love scene between Eric and Jason was some sort of gay wish fulfillment thing with the producers, writer and/or director or someone just really wanted to fuck with the actors placing them in that predicament.

Can we change the title of this thread to "The Leftovers"?

It smacked of terrible fan fiction come to life. I kept waiting for a punchline that never arrived. The closest we got was Jason waking up.

I think there are multiple reasons for it. One thing to remember is that the original actor who played Jessica's boyfriend last year looked for work elsewhere when it turned out that his main arc this season would include a gay relationship with Lafayette. I think this could be a reaction to that. The article that came out with this information called the actor homophobic. Twice. So, if you don't want to partake in soft-core gay porn as a straight man, you are now homophobic.

Whenever someone calls a person ______-phobic, and it doesn't involve something like that person being afraid of spoons, the bullshit alarm goes off loud and clear.

Anyway, the rest of the show was pretty lame. I am watching it on autopilot, and I don't think I'll stop until it's over. Maybe just so I can make sure it's dead. :lol:
