More kinky
sex, more wacky storylines, more bizarre supernatural randomness!
When at the
end of a season we wonder out loud why we did watch something it’s a clear sign
that things aren’t going into the right direction.
At least
this time the main villain is not kinky sex personified, actually the main
villain is the only thing that has been done mainly right in the whole season.
Russel Edgington is a very fun and interesting character and brings back
vampirism to the center stage. There are very fun interaction between him and
Eric Northman, who continue to be the show stealer.
Sadly the
rest is descending into a complete mess.
Lafayette,
the other breakthrough character is badly shoehorned by the screenwriters into
plot lines that deprive him of his more interesting feature. See while they did
the right call by not killing him at the end of season one they clearly don’t
know what to do with him, they can’t go to the books, where (spoiler alert) he’s
been long dead, and so they put him into more serious and depressing storylines
making him increasingly somber. This is an obvious mistake, we liked him
because he was fun and flamboyant, we don’t want another Tara.
Speaking of
which the amount of bad and crazy stuff that keeps piling on her is absurd. She
was already a morose and annoying person even when she didn’t have all those
reason to whine; now she is unbearable.
This is
probably the main problem of this serial, beyond all the kinky sex and storylines
so absurd that they leave our mouths gaping open, nobody is really likable,
they are all different shades of terrible.
Pile on it
a supernatural quotient that is spiraling out of control with five different
types of supernatural creatures living near this tiny hamlet and you get a
train wreck.
