I feel bad for everyone involved in last night's episode. It was beyond terrible. (Even the Jessica side boob didn't redeem it.)

Yeah my wife and I loved it but when they had that episode where it turns out Sookie is a fairy we immediately dropped the show. I don't think I've ever did a 180 like that with a show. We went from love to I'm out in one episode.

I finished this up a few weeks ago. A really bad final episode. The one year later scene followed by the three years later scene followed by the following thanksgiving scene was laughable.

My lingering question for anyone who read the books is, did the werepanthers have additional plotlines? Did the play a bigger role in the fall of Sophia Anne? The purge of supernaturals? They were so pointless as is. Their only interaction on screen with a supernatural was with Sam and Tommy. It didn't really lead to anything. They kidnapped Jason, raped him to breed, but you never found out if that worked. Crystal's character had no real closure either. It seemed like a giant waste to me.

I'd rank the seasons as
2
1
4
3
6
7
5

Alcohol withdrawal. What an unusual way to die.

That's what I read. He experienced extreme withdrawal symptoms and an extreme racing heart beat which lead to his death.

The quality of the shows really goes down after S4.

The last season i watched was when the Fairies became a huge story line. Whenever that was.
