True Blood: 02×12 Season Finale
Featured TV ReviewsPublished September 14, 2009 at 10:23 No Comments
People saying its like the most disappointing season finale ever, have clearly not seen the Heroes S3 finale.
No spoilers for the books…
It was certainly an episode of two halves, unfortunately the second half was only semi-entertaining but did set up some plot points for next season so I’m sure it was needed.
The problem is I kinda predicated Sam would shift into the ‘God’ and that Bill wasn’t betraying him or Sookie and that Eggs would eventually die and that’s without reading spoilers or the books. Which meant it was a bit of anti-climax when all those things happen.
I am incredibly happy that Sam survived and his storyline for S3 has been nicely set-up, Sam is one of my favourite characters in the show, and has been on the whole poorly used but I was delighted he saved the town, called everyone of those crazies his family and set about finding out the truth about his biological parents. Shifters? Werewolves? Something else? It probably won’t be good by the expression on his adopted mum’s face.
Bill oh Bill, how come I can only stand you when you are with Jessica? Seriously I love the dynamic they have, and how he is finally trusting her (only opps perhaps he shouldn’t have this time). But Bill with Sookie? Drives me insane. The proposal felt so off, and kinda not appropriate, if you think about it they have known each other only a few months, and she’s been through a lot of crazy shit. Glad he was vampirenapped at the end.
BTW I am so not into the Eric/Sookie under/overtones, she is such a Mary-sue at times, omg she is super-special and like everyone wants her! Gah no.
Jason and Andy, saved the day but not in the way they or we expected. They turned black-eyed pretty quickly but after the crazy had stopped, who was driving people home, taking care of them? Jason. And who got his badge back so he could protect the town properly? Andy. The killing of Eggs was kinda needed and I hope Jason doesn’t guilt trip too much on it, if he hadn’t shot him, Eggs would’ve killed himself anyway and possibly hurt Andy in the process.
Yeah I didn’t like Eggs, I couldn’t even feel sorry for him, and as for Tara, please redeem her next season, no one was whiney annoying Tara, we want badass bitchy Tara please.
Other Things of note..
Arlene’s kids, lmao at the ‘his definitely dead’ bit haha yes Rene isn’t on vacation with Jesus kids, smart those tiny teacup humans. Also Eric fangirls/boys.
Andy and Jason being BFF, love this development, hope they team up for more shenanigans.
Naked Sam time woo!
Jessica/Hoyt are breaking my heart…please let them make-up.
Speculation & Questions
If Sam drunk a lot of Bill’s blood will he now be having sexy dream time? Because hello slash, perhaps I could tolerate Bill with Sam. Probably not though.
How come Jason isn’t special but Sookie is? I mean his eyes went black so he can’t be supernatural and yet what Sookie is? Seems strange to me, perhaps its not genetic but why not?
I find it refreshing and intriguing that they gave Hoyt and his mom quite a bit of airtime, considering they are minor characters…but does this mean perhaps they aren’t? We never did see Hoyt go black-eyed crazy did we? Was his father a coward or something else trying to hide his true self? Maybe I’m reading into this too much but the other week she called his father ‘half a man’ did she mean literally?
Who took Bill? Probably an evil Eric plan with his maker Lorena though really do they think disappearing Bill will automatically make Sookie want Eric? Mind you this is Sookie we are talking about.
Why is the Vampire Queen selling V via Eric? I mean is she trying to make humans hooked on it so they will be like yay we love Vampires?
Maybe I just can’t remember it from last season but the father of Arlene’s children was never confirmed was he? They mentioned him the other week..maybe another supernatural creature?
Will Maryanne make a reappearance? I think she may haunt the dreams of Tara next season. It would be a shame to lose Michelle Forbes completely and I’m always up for some flashbacking nightmare sequences.
