One thing that I've always loved about True Blood is that the show never took itself seriously. There was no deep meaning or life lessons to the show. It was just great, fun, entertainment that featured horny vampires and corky crazy humans. From day one, I was hooked on the love story of Bill and Sookie. The chemistry between real life married couple, Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer, was something that always made me root for Bill and Sookie to get an happy ending. Although, like Sookie and Jessica, I didn't agree with Bill's decision to have the true death, I totally understood why Bill would want it. Sookie, as long as Bill was alive would never truly allow herself to love another man. It was always Bill for Sookie and Sookie for Bill. Bill had lived his life twice over as a vampire, so by taking himself out of the equation, he gave Sookie a chance to live her life and be happy with a human man and to have kids,
The final episode did feel like filler by the writers. Except for the final scenes and the Bill and Sookie scenes, there wasn't much excitement in the finale. I have never really liked the character of Hoyt, but his mom was hilarious for the series. Jessica was a favorite of mine and her relationship was Bill was so natural and honest, that I love her as his daughter. She got her happy ending with Hoyt. Sam got his happy ending with Nicole and their babies. Lafayette got his vampire lover and so did. Arlene. Jason ending up with one woman finally and a house full of kids. I thought that was a nice and cute ending for the extremely horny and simple minded Jason. Erica and Pam became spokes people for New Blood and the show threw in Willow as being happy at the end.
So overall, the ending was decent and all the stories were wrapped up. Sometimes, words aren't needed. The fact that the director and writers had all the characters there, even the minor characters like Jane Boathouse with her man and Rev. Daniels, were a wonderful added bonus for the fans that watched the show from day one. There will never be another True Blood.
