Well, we may not have parted on the best of terms. I realize certain words were exchanged. Also, certain... bullets. But that's air through the engine. It's past. We're business people.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

OOOH. I loved him in Rome. Can't wait to see him in a show with good writing again! (LOOKING AT YOU POLITICAL ANIMALS.)

True Blood is just so...dumb. I think I might be done, even with the Eric pretty and Pam greatness.

since I am not watching this season, I would love to know what sent you over the edge.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I started watching this morning, and then thought...wait, I watched last night. But what happened?
I dunno. Whatsisname, babyface looked startled a lot, and vampires probably exploded into bags of blood, but I am not actually going to watch again to remind myself.
Shit. Happened. On HBO.

I've been teetering on the edge ever since the Maryann season. Each season they seem to add more characters, more storylines, many seem to go unresolved, many more are just uninteresting. They are spread too thin. I hate the fairies (their club looks like my own personal version of hell). I didn't give a damn that Hoyt left - I used to love that character. Tara/Pam could be fun and interesting, but they barely give us a glimpse. Instead it's all of these Authority/Lilith fools who we've never seen before and who I could give a shit about. I thought having Russel back could be fun, but it's lame.
I may watch on DVD in the future, but I won't be turning on HBO as I have been for the last few seasons. Just. Too. Stupid.

This is me.
The 'someone is doping the Authority' wheeze is going on waaay too long. I thought Russell, who is so powerful and observant, would sweep in and smell the gag but he doesn't seem to care. So. Neither to I.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Strikeback has got to be the most annoying show on television. It can be pretty awesome at times, and then it makes me hate myself for liking it so much.
Last season, the ladyfriends of both male leads were fridged in the same episode. And in the season premier, there was yet another fridging that was so horribly melodramatic, it makes the Kyle Rayner issue look like great literature.
