What you said basically on True Blood, the appropriation and the general treatment of minority characters enfuriates me (that was, to the best of my knowledge, the first time we've seen sex between 2 men on this oh-so-gay show - and even that was interrupted. hey at least no-one died). Compare and contrast James&Lafayette with Jessica&Jason and Holly&Andy. Yeah.... and don't even get me started on AIDS because this is a whole lot of awful shit to be using here especially on top of them ripping so much off our experiences.
And as for the home truths - yes I agree with every damn word and cheer them. Except - this is half way through the very last season. The truth is told 5 episodes before the end? After there's any chance to act on any of this?!
