True Blood review – 6×07: ‘In The Evening’

July 29, 2013 by Joe Lipsett

True Blood races towards the finish line as the cast cleanse continues and another series regular bites the dust…or dissolves into a steaming husk of goo.

True Blood review – 6×06: ‘Don’t You Feel Me’

July 22, 2013 by Joe Lipsett

This week’s True Blood has everything: decapitations, shots to the head, near-drowning, Faerie light, and gratuitous amounts of female nudity. So why am I so freaking bored?

True Blood review – 6×02: ‘The Sun’

June 24, 2013 by Joe Lipsett

The sixth season of True Blood is just getting started and it’s unclear which – if any – of this season’s disparate storylines will pay off. ‘The Sun’ suggests that there’s a bit of a game-plan and OH MY GAWD BILLITH (Stephen Moyer) JUST LOOPER‘D THE BLOOD OUT OF THAT HOOKER!

True Blood review – 6×01: ‘Who Are You, Really?’

June 17, 2013 by Joe Lipsett

True Blood returns for a sixth season of twisted sex, bloody gore and political shenanigans. So how will this show go on without the calming <snicker> hand of creator Alan Ball (who stepped down to focus on his new series, Banshee)?

Judging from the first episode, it’s business as usual.

True Blood review – 5×12: ‘Save Yourself’

August 27, 2012 by Joe Lipsett

Well, we were promised a bloodbath! And since this is True Blood – the show that has yet to kill off a main character – we probably should have known that our favourites were safe. So what did ‘Save Yourself’ do right…and what didn’t work quite as well?

True Blood review – 5×11: ‘Sunset’

It’s a race to the finish for True Blood: with only two episodes remaining, the death toll is really starting to ratchet-up.
