I'm through with True Blood.

After finishing the worst season yeat of True Blood, I'm calling it quits. What started off as an interesting story about a world in which vampires are real and trying to fit into regular society started getting silly with the introduction of faeries, shifters, werewolves, fire demons and witches. This past season was way over the top with Lilith, the Authority and Sookie's faerie family. It's too much as they've even ruined my favorite characters, Tara and Lafayette.

I finished season three, but the werewolves and fairies were a bit much. And I don't even want to think of what they might do to Tara and Lafayette. Season three is the end for me.

So unfortunately, I know everything happening on the show still.

That said, by description alone, last season seemed worse. Tara is suddenly a lesbian MMA fighter? Where the Frack did THAT come from!?

We still have Joe Mangianello, guaranteed to remove his shirt at least once. Another case of the books having a better plot, pace, and characters than their visual incarnation.
