This Fucking Sucks

Nov 04, 2011 05:55

Amen sister. Did it ever. I watched the finale of True Blood, Season Four - it rivalled The Borgias for pointless romance storylines to dumb it down for the deeply stupid people who watch television. I don't know who Alan Ball thinks are the supposed "smart people" for whom this is popcorn. Possibly Frito the lawyer on Idiocracy, when he's not ' ( Read more... )

you know shit about sookie, alcide herveaux - stink pig, tb - the other white meat, pam - best vampire ever, eric northman the lover, bill compton - sweetheart, i thinked about svm today, sookie stackhouse - 28, you think you can write

"Other shows can make entire shows out of "Shit True Blood drops the ball on". Fucking Law and Order: Bon Temps. "

Yes, please :-D

Lol - Mr. Minty liked that idea too. :D It'd have nicely tied up storylines, and there's no shortage of crimes. Hell, they could even have an SVU offshoot - plenty of rape victims to go around.

Can you please add a warning sign before a post like this? the_real_e_f_m November 4 2011, 21:26:27 UTC

So then I won't read it when I need to pee - having tears of laughter running down my face accompanied by aching ribs don't help when I need to pee! You're so bad when you're angry:D ( ... )

Mr. Minty tries to kill me, I pass it on ( ... )

Ahh the old 'blame it in the hubby' trick - you are wise Grasshopper:D
Next season I'm thinking a musical episode where Sookie can wear her Carmen Miranda outfit would be good. I can see Eric 'n Bill as Hope & Crosby and the epi could be called 'Road to Bon Temps'. *Shakes maracas*
They could throw in Thriller as a big finale piece where all the cast can join in. Sookie could scream her head off before flashing her boobs at them & then microwave a few zombies with her hands. Maybe Chippendale Alcide will get fried in the cross-fire when he puts a toe/paw out of line?
Perversely, I'm hoping he's even more of an arse next season so we get more raging posts from you;)

Only for important things, like framing him for murder. If he loves me, he'd take the fall.

It could end up being like Twin Peaks - senseless scene upon senseless scene, and all because Alan Ball likes abs, or he saw some other show this week where the trend is smouldering looks and Shakespeare.

Oooh - I like this idea of being caught in the crossfire. Alcide should just get a blast when he opens his mouth. Or looks at her.

Lol - you are cruel. :D

Actual conversation with my mother while she was catching up on S4, occurring mid-episode 2:

Me: [points at Eric onscreen] Enjoy him while he lasts. He's about to have his balls lopped off.
Mum: I can't imagine he'd enjoy that.
Me: [looks thoughtful] We-ell, Book!Eric, maybe, but this one seemed to like it well enough.
Mum: Oh dear.

She has since given up (after episode 3, I think). When she told me she wasn't sure she could keep going, I said it was alright, since S4 was all kinds of fucked up.

Lol - yes indeed. And he found ways to bring his lack of balls into the whole thing. It's nice to see that some fanfic writers have the same interpretation as Alan Ball does. Amnesiac Eric = An Angel descended from Heaven.

at least you can make me laugh about it, because mostly, TB makes me sad. Because I want it to be good so badly, and I know it could have been.

peppermintyrose November 5 2011, 23:44:06 UTC

We can't change it, so we should make fun of it. And that's what the chicken picture is for. :D

Oh…the laughs are good here. ;) And that is one fine-looking chicken with a side of tater tot goodness. Lol. Love it. JanineMNM

I tried to shoop a Swedish hen (because obvious, it's all about the Scandinavian references when it comes to Eric - he has Ikea furniture etc) but the hen just didn't stand right.

This Fucking Sucks! ext_791848 November 6 2011, 00:38:49 UTC

Boy does it ever. I told ya the last episode was the icing on the cake. You already know my opinion about this season from the last post you wrote. As always a great post Peppermintyrose I agree wholeheartedly!

Re: This Fucking Sucks! peppermintyrose November 6 2011, 03:11:32 UTC

Lol - that you did. It was vague enough though that I was completely surprised, and utterly flabbergasted. You said it was bad, but that just doesn't really encompass the craptacular shitology that was the last episode. :D
