    I didn't realize it was even on a downward spiral. I guess I'm just strictly in it for the entertainment without getting too cerebral about it. For me, it's well done vampirism with werewolves, shapeshifters, fairies, etc. mixed in. Some of it is kind of hit or miss...but it's been more hit than miss imo. It's a hell of a lot better than that Twilight crap. Someone mentioned Vampire Diaries but I haven't seen that.

    I just don't want to see any of you torture yourselves over watching it. lol

    I am in it for entertainment as well. Hard to get too cerebral about a show like this.

    Guilty pleasure of mines as well, friend got me hooked on that one. Very good show though

    As for True Blood I think this season has been much much better than the mess that was last season.

    Way the hell better than Dexter has been for a while.

    I think this season will be strong.

    yea really surprising me , I thought the show fell off the train like 3 seasons ago.

    The first 3 seasons are what got me into TV series, thats how good it was.

    I was really into it up through season 2. Season 3 was okay, then season 4 got so weird that I stopped watching it. I don't even think I made it through the season.

    I might consider picking it back up again if this season is good. But I think season 4 killed the series for me.

    it's worse than ever, imo. never seen a show get progressively worse and worse like this.

    why am i still watching? because i have some sick compulsion to finish every show that i watch at least a couple seasons of.

    Yeah, it's pretty bad. I'm still going to finish out the series since I've already watched 6 seasons and this being the final season, but it has been off to yet another subpar beginning.

    Wife likes it and I don't dislike it enough to be bothered by it. Still think the first season was the best, rest has been up and down in terms of quality.

    hookers, whether young or old, love vampire stuff.
    I quit after the fairy crap, but attempted to get back into it last season. it continued to be bad. we'll always have the first 2 seasons though.

    No doubt. She has become unbearable. I wanna see her dead! She could do all the episodes nude, and it still wouldnt make up for how damn annoying she has become.

    The only character I still enjoy is Pam. That chick cracks me up. It's crazy that she was "man hands" on Seinfeld.

    thanks for that video. had no clue pam was man hands. pretty cool watching them before they were stars. it's like watching band of brothers or freaks and geeks and seeing how many small roles went on to bigger things.

    Yea, I'll finish too, but to echo what others have already said...Paquin's character is terrible and the acting (overall) seems to have gotten worse.

    my thoughts exactly. Stopped after season 4. everyone I know said Season 5 was so terrible I never watched it. Heard last season was decent and this season not so much so far. Either way, I'm over the show. It was really good the first couple of years, IMO
