caliente_ukIt wasn't the strongest season finale in the world, but it was still enjoyable and set up some new storylines to take us into Season 3.
True Blood S2 Ep12
Episode reactions in no particular order:
~ Oooh, scary Lafayette with his oily black eyes. Eep!
~ Lafayette dressed as a bridesmaid. Hee!
~ Sookie is the Maid of Honor...so she can lure Sam in to be Maryann's sacrifice.
~ So the giant egg is an ostrich egg, to be used as a symbol of fertility. And Sookie has to lick it. Eeew!
~ Jason and Andy's plan is made of...EPIC FAIL! But I still love them.
~ So now Jason and Andy have gone all oily black eyed on us.
~ Tara and Eggs are still annoying. I hope they do something better with Tara next year.
~ Bill has brought Sam to be sacrificed. Surely he must have a plan??
~ Eggs stabs Sam with the big scary knife. Lots and lots of blood. Noooooo! Not Sam!
~ Maxine tries to escape from Hoyt...but he's smarter than she realises. Yay for Hoyt!
~ Sookie destroys the ostrich egg and the big meat tree.
~ Maryann is not happy and chases after her...planning to use her big scary claw hands!
~ A huge white bull with horns turns up. Is it the God Maryann's been waiting for? No, it's Sam! Sam kills Maryann by pulling her heart from her chest.
~ Naked Sam! That can never be a bad thing as far as I'm concerned. Just saying.
~ Bill healed Sam. Yay for Bill!
~ The Sam as a bull storyline doesn't quite work for me. Sam can usually only turn into a creature he's been in contact with, right? So has Sookie been hiding a huge white bull in her house? And if so, where? But hey, this is True Blood! Since when has logic mattered? *g*
~ Everyone has finally returned back to normal. Or as normal as you can be when living in Bon Temps. And Jane Bodehouse has found her finger. Yay!
~ As good as I think Michelle Forbes has been as Maryann, I'm glad to see the back of this storyline.
~ This show IS NOT all about Eric. The fact it's an ensemble show is one of the things I love about it. I'm just saying.
~ That being said, Eric completely stole his one and only scene with the Queen of Louisiana. And I was so glad that Godric was mentioned! You could tell just by the look on his face how devastated Eric still is by the death of his maker. Alex S plays emotion so well.
~ So the Queen of Louisiana is behind Eric selling the vampire blood. Interesting.
~ Oh Jason. Oh Andy. Completely convinced that they must be heroes...even though they can't remember a thing.
~ Andy has his badge back. Yay! And at least he's wearing pants. :D
~ I really felt for Sam when he saw the deer and became emotional. Poor Sam. :(
~ Lafayette really doesn't want to remember what happened...and I can't say I blame him. *hearts Lafayette*
~ So who has been buying Sookie gifts? I have to admit that I was a little disappointed (but not really surprised) when it turned out to be from Bill.
~ Eggs hasn't been a favourite character of mine, but I felt sorry for him when he was so conflicted about the gaps in his memory. I'm not sure Sookie did the right thing by showing him the truth. :(
~ I had a feeling Eggs wouldn't make it to the end of the episode, but I fully expected him to commit suicide. I did not expect Jason to shoot him in the head! o_O
~ Jason and Andy really are a double act now. The one good thing about Andy taking the blame for Eggs' death? We're bound to see more of them together next season. And I love me some Jason and Andy interaction!
~ As much as I like Bill (and I do like Bill - I don't see why I should have to choose just because I'm more interested in Eric), he really shouldn't dance! Not good at all, Bill.
~ So Bill has proposed to Sookie. How did I know that this wasn't going to end well?
~ Sam's decided to look for his birth parents. And they don't sound like nice people! Definitely some sort of shapeshifters. A nice introduction to Sam's storyline for S3.
~ No, Jessica! Don't do it!
~ Poor Hoyt is going to be devastated. Is there going to be any way back for my favourite couple of S2? :( Another good lead in to S3.
~ Sookie said yes! Uh oh, there's only one way for this to end then...
~ So who's kidnapped Bill? I won't say who I think the culprit is, but I won't be happy if it turns out to be the most obvious choice.
~ And so we have the set up for S3. Bill's been kidnapped, Sam's looking for his birth parents, Jessica has turned possible killer, Jason and Andy have a murder to cover up, and Eric...well, who knows what Eric has in store for us? I can't wait to find out.
~ Did everyone recognise Charlaine Harris in Merlotte's Bar? Nice touch.
And now we have the long, long wait until S3 starts next summer. *sigh*
Oh well, at least I still have Supernatural. :)

Date: 2009-09-14 07:18 pm (UTC)I do agree this finale was weak, although it is an ensemble show, i honeslty don't get the proposal scene, Bill will do anything to keep Eric away.
And maybe the whole Lorena kidnap scene may happen, but i'm glad they opened up Sam's arc for s3. And who know's with Bill *poof* Eric will be there to try and help find him lol
