(S7. E5) My Live Reaction / Review for True Blood Season 7 Episode 5 ''Lost Cause''. Episode 4 was good and I gave it a rating of 9/10. Let's see if this one is better or worse. Eric released Willa? I didn't see that coming. Andy proposed to Holly, that's so adorable, im happy for them. Lafayette just stole Jessica's boyfriend, damn. It seems like Arlene maybe found a new vampire boyfriend. Its kind of strange to me that Alcide died and they ''celebrate life'' by having a party. When you lose someone having a party is the last thing you should do, at least that's my opinion. Tara's mom stabbed Willa to get some V? That's insane. Jessica kisses Jason? What the hell? Now they are having sex too? These two are so dumb that they are perfect for each other. Bill is sick too? What the hell? Overall this episode was good. My rating is 9/10.

Honestly, this is one of the most uneventful, uninspired True Blood episodes in recent memory. It's as though the writer(s) are completely out of new ideas, only taking the opportunity for snarky political jabs in lieu of coming up with intelligent plot lines.
My wife summed it up best when she asked if this particular episode was more than the standard 55 minutes in length. No dear, it just seems a lot longer because it was poorly written and did nothing to advance the story.
This continues the trend of sloppy writing with this show. Case in point last season when Eric Northman referred to a dead vampires 'warm blood all over him.' Really folks? Since when do these characters have warm blood?
And that is why this show is in it's final season. Hopefully a different writing crew will do better as this series concludes.
