#TrueBlood S5E11 “Sunshine” Review

This week I came in expecting something epic, I mean this is the episode before the finale, I’ll say this, it wasn’t “epic” but it was a really good episode, so far for this season I don’t think I’ve given anything a full 5/5 rating and as endings go if it were just the ending I would have given this episode a full rating but alas we have to count in the entire episode.

I’m wondering if Bill will come back to his senses in the finale or if we will have to wait till next season, the man is totally gone and now we’ve lost Kibwe although I wasn’t too impressed with the character, that has nothing to do with Peter Mensah’s acting skills I just think they didn’t develop that character properly. 

I totally saw the Pam and Rosalyn thing coming, Pam would do anything to see Eric again and as if Rosalyn wasn’t hype before, Rosalyn on Lilith is a 10 on the hype scale.

So does Tara have a progeny crush on Pam?  I never actually explored that at all till Jessica brought it up.

I wonder if Hoyt made it to Alaska yet?  I’m thinking if they are staying true to the roots of this show the Hoyt ain’t going nowhere unless it’s in a body-bag.

I’m convinced the fairy elder learnt nothing from all the so-called information in her head, why the heck would she take so long to blast Russell Edgington? That should have been the first thing she did because at least she would have the shock factor.  But then it wouldn’t be True Blood and it would be boring if she had triumphed over Russell so quickly, still I think they could have been more creative about it, I mean here is this fairy elder, arguably the most powerful fairy in the lot, and the only persons she managed to do anything to are a baby vamp and a human? She should have at least gotten him even a tiny bit and now I don’t know how the fae and Sookie are going to escape Russell, probably have to use their fairy power altogether.

I seriously can’t wait for the finale because I wanted to see how they square off the Bill/Authority situation, the Fae/Edgington situation, not to mention what ever happened to Warlow? They are really waiting till the finale to pop this guy out, they should just leave him till next season if they are going to do that and last but not least I want to see what they do with Hoyt, the Alcide and Sam and Luna storylines have become a bit uninteresting to me, but we’ll see what they will pack into next week and how much of a cliffhanger the end scene will be.

#TrueBlood S5E10 “Gone, Gone, Gone” Review

This episode was an improvement on last week’s episode I guess since this season is coming to a close and everything is being tied together.

It seems one of my theories on Bill’s behavior may just be wrong, I was thinking he was just behaving like this but had some kind of plan up his sleeve but now I’m not so sure, I mean, betraying Eric is one thing but observing his general behavior is really showing that the blood of Lilith really got to him, it may just take some Fae power to blast this sucker back to normal.

With Eric and Nora now, I’m wondering how the vision they saw of Lilith ripping Godric’s throat open affected Nora in particular, I still think Eric isn’t sold on the whole Lilith philosophy but of course he has to play along or he’ll meet the truth death, he need to figure out something and soon as for Nora it’s a possibility she’s finally seeing what Eric was talking about.

So lets assume Nora is on the good team now and assume Eric is also still on the good team, all they have to do is find a way to get rid of Salome, it’s easy to deal with Bill but Salome is tricky, she has to either die or everyone has to go against her for all this AVL nonsense to stop and of course Russell Edgington wasn’t going to play nice forever, I was just waiting for him to stop playing along, I saw the little flare ups every now and then, it was just a matter of time, now I think Bill and Eric are going to try to save Sookie.  I may be too much of a hopeless romantic but for some reason I think that Bill and Eric’s love for Sookie surpasses any hold Lilith’s blood might have on them, how they are going to escape the authority should be interesting.

I for one find the Russell and Steve relationship entertaining, it’s like Steve is slowly filling the void Talbot left, or is he just a rebound?  In  any case it’s good that Russell has a bit of a weakness with having Steve around because it’s going to be harder for them to stop him this time.  I’m thinking Russell isn’t planning to drain her but instead use her like a blood factory of some sort, this should add some more spice to the last two episodes just because I love to see Russell in action, am I the only one who noticed his accent totally changed when he got up on that table?

Pam and Tara are getting closer and I like it, I think being Pam’s progeny is the best thing that has happened to her across all seasons of this show and I think Tara is good for Pam too since she doesn’t have Eric right now and also they are kinda alike in their personalities.

I hope Luna and Sam get to leave with Emma, it would have me so much more helpful if she was a Wereshifter hybrid.

Sookie basically has two things to worry about now, one of which she has no idea is coming her way and this Warlow dude, I’m thinking Warlow wants to use her for the same purpose Russell does, I wonder if we will get some big show down with those too in the finale, hopefully Alan Ball stays true to True Blood traditions and gives us a massive shocker and cliffhanger for the finale.  I’m wondering why Sookie’s ancestor would strike that kind of deal with Warlow and why is he taking so long to appear? They must really be saving him for the finale.

I’m glad Hoyt finally decided to do something that makes sense I mean he was getting to be more and more imbecilic as the weeks progressed but trust me I was satisfied when he made the decision to go to Alaska, what I thought was chicken though was him telling Jessica to glamor him, I mean I get that he’s really hurt but he should man up and get over her in a natural way, anyway I have a feeling that he’ll get his memory back sooner or later.

I totally forgot that Jessica would also be somebody who could help Nora & Eric in my earlier hypothetical situation, Jessica is totally thinking Bill has gone psycho but that’s all probably overshadowed by Russell’s rant.

I didn’t take any screencaps this week because there wasn’t much worth screencapping, though it was a good episode, not awesome, but good.  I suppose they are going to show what’s up with Terry and Arlene and with Alcide and the wolves next week.

True Blood Season 5 Episode 9 Sookie enlists Lafayette’s help to find out what the “Spirit Thingy” in her bathroom is and what it wants.

teeveegenie:

The spirit thingy is definitely Warlow, shouldn’t Sookie know that?
