That is a LOT of filler, but somehow there apparently wasn’t time for a scene where Jason talks to Violet about murdering his former best friend’s mom. This episode featured not one, not two, but THREE scenes of people being told their loved ones were dead, plus multiple flashbacks to the full history of Fangtasia. READ MORE: Should Your Interest In ‘True Blood’ Be Reborn for the Final Season? I dread endless scenes of Jason and Jessica pretending they don’t know him, then making significant eye contact when Hoyt’s back is turned. Surely poor Terry deserved better than to show up as a hallucination due to blood loss, right? Hoyt coming back is a little more promising, although his original departure, where he was glamoured to forget not only his relationship with Jessica, but his entire friendship with Jason, was pretty ridiculous. I guess I understand the impulse to bring everyone back for one last hurrah, but “True Blood” has historically been so bad about writing out its characters that I’m really not sure all of these guys deserve a victory lap. Huge chunks of this episode were given over to cameos from characters past, and while it’s certainly possible that some audience members were glad to see them, I was just bored to tears.
Who is this season of “ True Blood” for? I guess one could argue that’s it’s for the die hard fans, but is there really a “True Blood” fan that thinks to themselves, “Boy, I hope we get one more glimpse of Robert Patrick as Alcide’s dad before this season’s over?”
