An unrepentant [expletive] fighting vampires could be so great. And that kid has to go. He's even worse this season. Disappointed that the vampire black ops dudes appear to have gone out like chumps.
It's a different actor for the kid, but he's equally terrible. Actually, I think this actor/kid is way worse than the one from last year. When I read the books, my first reaction was "This kid is worse than [expletive] Joffrey". That was an overreaction (he's nowhere close to as bad as Joffrey) but that should give you an idea of where the little [expletive] head is coming from. It doesn't help that the actor/kid does a horrible job.
RE: the black ops dudes... book spoilers...
- [SHOW]
- They will definitely be back. Not those specific ones but others will be. The biggest, most badass one hasn't even been introduced yet (though I think he finally showed up last night).
Generally, I find it a maddening show because it does some REALLY cool things, like the Master/Sardu's backstory, and some of the more grisly scenes. But it's so awkward and terrible at other times (Fet and Dutch's romance is especially a [expletive] show, as is Zack's acting).
