True Blood season 6 ep 1
Jun. 17th, 2013 05:06 pmNot a proper review, or anything, but spoilers behind cut.
Okay, so the werewolf stuff bores me rigid (yes, even naked Alcide), but otherwise I loved it.
Well, I could have done without Eric being so mean to Pam. Not sure what that was about, hope they reconcile before season's end. Also, I really don't like Norah, and don't want most of Eric's scenes this season to be with her.
Also, also, Bill suddenly being all normal was weird. And are we supposed to forget all the awful things he did in season 5, the way we're supposed to forget the awful things Twangel did in the Buffy season 8 comic? Among other things, Bill killed a completely innocent woman last season, as I recall. On the other hand, if we are just supposed to forget, it won't bother me nearly as much as it does in the Buffy comics, because I don't take True Blood seriously - just enjoy it for the craziness and the rather heavy-handed social satire.
Anyway, we'll see where it goes. In the meantime, one thing's for sure, dear sweet little Jason hasn't got any brighter, bless 'im. :)

His character seems to vary depending on how he can aid the narrative of the season.
I do know what you mean, but I think this is true to a greater or lesser extent of all the characters.

Yes, I enjoy those. She's a great character.
