I'm with Toni, actually. I'll probably watch a few more episodes but I definitely don't like where the series has gone.
The show never should have brought in the fairy angle to begin with. I was hoping that the writers would kind of forget about Andy's fairy spawn thingies. The show is falling apart just as much as the book series is.
There are rumors that Skarsgard (aka Eric) may be leaving the show after this season (assuming it's not cancelled). Good for him. I've seen movies he's been in. The movies may not have been spectacular but his performances were always good. He's got "quietly menacing" down for sure, although he's done a good job with other emotions as well. Time for him to move on from being mere eye candy.
Anna Paquin's portrayal of Sookie has been bothering for me for a while - the Sookie in the books is not nearly that preachy. Or she doesn't start off that way. I think, as the author starts losing her mind, she winds up getting a little more sanctimonius. I'm not sure - I started losing interest in the books after the whole fairy war thing.
Hopefully the supporting characters won't be running off in ten thousand directions with their own story lines this season. Yeah, they are carrying on the thing with Andy's spawn, although maybe a vampire devours them and ends that ridiculousness. That would be cool actually. I'd laugh my ass off.
Maybe they can improve this season but it's not promising.
Why do I always do this to myself???
