True Bloodless
I think I’m done. As I watched Sunday night’s episode of True Blood, I just kept thinking, why am I watching this? Where is this show going? Do I even care anymore? What is the point of anything that is happening on my TV right now?
Instead of getting more interesting or having anything to do with vampire lore, the show is turning into more and more of a soap opera. Plus, there’s too much swearing, too much sex and too much gore for me. And it isn’t even that interesting. I mean, I like a good soap opera as much as the next guy, maybe even more than the next guy, but the story lines aren’t that compelling.
Honestly, the best part of the show are the accents. I like listening to Bill’s slow Southern drawl and Rene’s Cajun singsong. But that’s just not enough to make me keep watching. There are only so many hours of life I want to spend watching TV. I just can’t be wasting them all on stuff I’m not enjoying. I feel a little bad about it, cause I’ve been looking for a good vampire show. I feel cheated because Moonlight was canceled but True Blood will mostly likely get the whole season, since its on HBO and not CBS. *sigh* Life is not fair. Apparently, neither is unlife.
I guess the one scene that was touching was when Sookie sat and cried and ate all the rest of the pecan pie that her Gram had made. But even then, I kept thinking is that really pecan pie cause it looks too creamy. And why is she taking such small bites, doesn’t she like pecan pie? You know, I was not even really appreciating it when it wasn’t bad.
I guess if I change my mind later, I can always go back and watch the eps on demand or even online somewhere. But for now, I think I’m really over it.
