re: True Blood Season Five Finale "Save Yourself"

Because Lillith was red, have you been watching?

Alan Ball's dream came true: Bill is God

Nice to finally see Eric wrecking shite after he was stuck at the Authority/Lillith crap most of the season.

Gotta love Jason .

My boyfriend and I believe Sookie/Anna Paquin's character/story took a backseat this season because of her pregnancy--overall this season she didn't do much which is probably a good thing. Seeing her cry over Bill was lame though, but expected.

DAMNIT WHO IS WARLOW!?!!? Apparently Nora knows about it.


The birthing scene was hilarious. Glad to see Lafayette back to his sassy self.

I thought Lilith was fake this whole time. I wonder if what they showed us (billith) is really what sookie and Eric saw. They have been screwing around with those visions and who sees what.

Tommy died because he was beaten to death. Not from skin walking.

as a result of shifting into other humans too much. It made him weak and vulnerable.

But then we'd know how he attracted Anna Paquin in the first place .

I had no idea Anna Paquin was pregnant. I remember wondering why she didn't have a huge role this season but I really didn't think anything of it in the long run.

That's pretty much the reason why. She's having twins. Could also be why she didn't do any nude scenes this season.

So why does he still look like bill if he's Lilith?

Hey, let's not try to make too much sense of anything that happens on this show. But my best guess is that upon Bill drinking Lilith's blood, he exploded and died and Lilith has returned using his body as a vessel for her to carry out the rapture.

People need to realize that True Blood isn't going for the same tone and style as Boardwalk Empire and Game of Thrones. Those are serious dramas. They make it abundantly clear what they are and what they are doing. True Blood is more of a dramedy where yeah some serious shite happens, but it's not a hard-hitting drama. They don't get all serious business about everything. I like the lighter tone. It's great to see vampires who aren't boring or aren't in some stupid arse fake drama teen romance.

Doesn't hurt to have this show sandwiched between GOT and BE either.

FWIW, for those who don't have HBOGO there is an extra scene they put on there after the credits. It's basically Jason, Jessica, Nora, Pam, and Tara in the elevator riding to the top of the Authority. Jason is pretty much ignoring Jessica and even looks around at one point like he wants to blast all the vampires in the elevator with him.

Then as they're headed up a set of stairs Jason says, "I'm coming for you Warlow" (or something to that effect) and Nora, rather surprised, turns says, "Wait how do you know about Warlow?".

So we'll have Warlow stuff next season.

Serious drawback of the season imo.

Salome, Nora, and that werebitch made up for it IMO.
