I am very happy to say that, FINALLY, the show ended the season with an episode truly as entertaining as it should have been all along. I am sad to see Russell Edgington go, but it was awesome to see Eric shockingly rid the faerie field of him. Somehow, I just don't believe he is really gone. You never know.
Bar the birth of the Faerie Quads, the episode was thrilling. I am even pleased with Alcide finally getting his pack leadership away from JD. There were many stand out scenes. Many vamp deaths and shifter hijinx. Sam shifting into a fly and bringing us the new "I know an old vamp who swallowed a fly, perhaps she'll die." trick was literally bloody good.
Many questions remain for us to ponder for the year long wait for next season. Will Sookie and Eric survive Bill now that he has killed most of The Authority and drank all of Lilith's blood? Where is Rev. Newlin? Luna was very ill after shifting back from being Rev. Newlin. Will she and Sam succeed in rescuing Luna? TARA AND PAM?!?!?That is a power duo that should be able to get Bill neutralized. And, finally, will we ever know who killed Sookie and Jason's parents? My money is on Bill.
Questions and more questions. There wouldn't be any if the series went by the book. So, who knows where it will go from here. Some suggestions for next season: please give us a better soundtrack. It was great to end the season with Stabbing Westward's "Save Yourself". We need more of the music that defined the first 4 seasons, original and retro. And please, if this next season deals with Hurricane Katrina, don't make it cheesy. MAKE IT EPIC.
And so we wrap up this season. Join me here for the upcoming season of The Walking Dead, Treme, Boardwalk Empire and more.
