I just watched the finale of season 5 yesterday. It was really hard for me to get into the show, since I am not a huge fan of vampires; especially the romanticized model of vampire being used in a lot of recent media. My best friend had to convince me to give it a chance. I watched season 1 and really enjoyed it, but almost went right back to hating the idea of watching it because of the shit storm of a plot line (or lack, thereof) that was season 2. No idea what the Hell was going on that whole season, aside from a lot of raunchy sex scenes and not much else. =/
Season 3 redeemed what season 2 seemed to destroy out of the series. To be honest, though, between season 3 and season 4, what with the additions of several new characters, the transition between story lines eventually started to warp the entertainment value of the show for me. It was hard to remember where I was left with each character's development. Season 5 seemed to slow down a bit and bring everyone's characters back to a central plot, so I haven't been too disappointed. The season 5 finale has me interested in what's in store for the next season, too, so I think I'll stay tuned in.
