True Blood

[unitedwestand]

It's one of the best tv series HBO has done in a while.
Agree?

[KungFuJoe]

It's one of the few shows I've gotten into over the past couple of years. I enjoy it bunches.

Suprised it's taken this long for someone to start a thread about it.

[allyjoy]

I will reserve my judgment for the end of the season, but can we all agree Anna Paquin can't act?

[unitedwestand]

Yeah hopefully It'll stay around for a while! the characters are great!

[wmgaretjax]

I'm gonna check this out.

[KungFuJoe]

I will reserve my judgment for the end of the season, but can we all agree Anna Paquin can't act?

She has her moments. I think she can act fine & she fills her role well. There are definately others that outshine her in the show, but I actually think everyone in the show does a pretty good job. They've built a fun community of characters. Tara & Lafayette are my favorites.

[Courtney]

Isn't part of the show that it's supposed to be camp and the acting is supposed to be bad? I mean, thematically vampires + sex + white trash south sort of automatically adds up to camp.

[KungFuJoe]

Isn't part of the show that it's supposed to be camp and the acting is sort of supposed to be bad?

That's the way I've always taken it. That's why I love it. It constantly pokes fun of itself yet manages to remain very engaging.

[garrett222]

anna paquin boobs + vampires + werewolves = good show

[suprefan]

anna paquin boobs + vampires + werewolves = good show

Did you not see the last episode with that hippy/ new age chick? Hippy girl bewbs > anna paquin bewbs

[garrett222]

i did...and i agree hers were better on their own merit. BUT....famous boobs > unfamous boobs. Agree?

[Jerm05]

I love this show. never occurred to me to start a thread about it, probly because i'd get owned too much in a thread i start myself..

btw, that was lizzy caplan from mean girls and cloverfield and those were epic titties

[sames44]

That's the way I've always taken it. That's why I love it. It constantly pokes fun of itself yet manages to remain very engaging.

I agree...love this show.

[BlueDevil50]

quality show...sundays are by far the best day for tv with dexter, entourage, and true blood. but yes, awesome show!

...i don't want no aids burger lol

[Pixiessp]

I have definitely got to start to watching it again.

[Lurker_in_a_tree]

Entourage had the potential to turn into something good this season. It would have been a better show to see "Vince" struggle. Instead, he's a complete asshole, turning down million dollar modeling jobs. I have no sympathy for this idiot.
And now the show is back to supermodels with their own private jets.
Crash and burn, Entourage.

[Jerm05]

agreed, the end of this past Entourage episode sets up for a huge change, which i hope happens as the show's dynamic has stayed the same since its beginning. kinda sucks

I personally like the supermodel plot lines...but what I am pissed about is his reaction to ari's promotion. he was selfish and only thought about how it impacted him. Geez..the first thing on Ari's mind at all times what what his new job could do for vince..very lame on vince's part.

[sbessiso]

I finally saw an episode of this (I believe it was the last new one). It's not bad, but its not great. It's really kinda silly and thats where the entertainment comes from. I wanna try some vampire blood so badly and please tell me you guys laugh everytime "Bill the Vampire" calls out to SOOKE.

"i am not human, SOOKE!"

What really makes my brain itch is the fact that Alan Ball created this. How did he go from 6 Feet Under to a soap opera with vampires (thats exactly what it is, a soap opera)

[suprefan]

i did...and i agree hers were better on their own merit. BUT....famous boobs > unfamous boobs. Agree?

No, cause you could at least have a shot getting those unfamous boobs.. Best thing is she is a recurring character.

[wmgaretjax]

Six Feet Under was a soap opera... A damn good one, but that's what it was.

[sbessiso]

I guesssss but you know what I'm trying to say.

[wmgaretjax]

I do... How'd he go from doing something really raw and loaded, to something incredibly corny...

I enjoyed the first few episodes. It's fun.

[garrett222]

No, cause you could at least have a shot getting those unfamous boobs.. Best thing is she is a recurring character.

point taken.

Why not have pics of hot girls in the street scene thread instead of scarjo? ;)

[sbessiso]

I expected it to be a vampire show but done the way 6 feet under was. dark, funny, subtle, in your face, ironic, symbolic etc.

once you get passed all that though, like you said, it IS fun, and omg SOOKE. we just kept saying her name overandoveragain, SOOKE

I liked that black girl and her bother, their mom is one crazy bitch. I wish I still had HBO so I can keep up with the show although realistically I dont see it lasting

[C DUB YA]

Did you not see the last episode with that hippy/ new age chick? Hippy girl bewbs > anna paquin bewbs

Yeah that's the girl from Cloverfield (Lizzy Caplan) - I heart her very much - her and her bewbs.

http://www.blackbookmag.com/ee/images/uploads/pf_main_lizzy25.jpg

I kinda dig this show. Very campy, my wife says the books are pretty good too (Charlene Harris) and the show doesn't change too much to make anything a distraction from the the basic plotline.

In fact HBO on Sunday is pretty fun:

True Blood
Entourage
Little Britain
Tim
Real Time w Bill Maher (encore)

[sbessiso]

She'll always be the dyke from "Mean Girls" to me

[C DUB YA]

Also True Blood has some of the best title design ever... (along with Dexter)

See for yourself.

vxINMuOgAu8

here's the Dexter one - which by the way is done by the same designers.

[karecares]

i actually run around singing i want to do bad things with you.. too bad i can't sing to save my life

salah i suggest starting from the first episode before blowing it off.
yes it's soapy but i can see a lot of future potential (i havent read the books) on where this can go. Tara does a great ACOA & Lafayette is one of the funniest characters in the show..... pulls its hot

can we agree that Sookie is an annoying name however fitting it may be

[karecares]

.....

[sbessiso]

no, didnt you see, I found it to be quite entertaining

[karecares]

sorry i misread that.

also i found a great site for full episodes, pm me if you'd like the link
i had to turn off my hbo bc i just couldn't swing the extra bill (after the sopranos) and refuse to pay just for one or 2 shows

[karecares]

for some reason my posts keep coming up double sorry

[Pixiessp]

I am almost caught up. still need to watch last weeks episode. I agree that Lafayette is hilarious. Tara is pretty funny too. Sookie's brother is such a sleaze. ok, gotta go. gotta get ice cream before the new episode starts.

[C DUB YA]

Ha we did that too (ice cream).

Graeters Cinnamon! Best ice cream on earth.

Tonight's show was pretty damn good - the only thing I'll give away is that we even got more Lizzy Caplan bewbage.

[Pixiessp]

wow!!!! no kidding.

[evosport]

wow they totally fucked up the nicest vampire in that episode haha i felt bad for him

[M Sparks]

btw, that was lizzy caplan from mean girls

Thanks, I couldn't remember where I knew her from.

This show isn't really doing it for me, but I still keep watching every week. I have trouble getting past the accents.

[Hopeless Semantic]

Well, if Alan Ball created something similar and unique as Six Feet Under, you would all probably complain of redundancy. It is with this corny appeal that True Blood works. All the previous vampire shows have been dark and dreary relying heavily on the Gothic meets today's world vibe. If you've read the series, then you can see just how corny it is and well, it fits. There is something appealing to the lousy acting as if the development relies on the crass acting methods. Bringing out the werewolf element in last night's episode was saweeetttt though.

[KungFuJoe]

did they show a werewolf? did i miss it? i think Sam is more than that....

also, Stephen Root cameo was wonderfully repulsive and i like how Jason & Lizzy Caplan's characters are becoming like the trashy couple from the first episode.

I thought Entourage was going to jump the shark last night (or should i say smoke?) Glad they pulled it back together in the second half.

[Blinken]

Bringing out the werewolf element in last night's episode was saweeetttt though.

I didn't catch this, what happened?

[Hopeless Semantic]

No. They eluded to Sam's lycan-esque way...I think Taryn is the one with the biggest demons and if they play the book accordingly...

Entourage has really been stellar for me this season. I like the fact that Ari gave up a dreamjob to still maintain his roots...he is human after all.

I like the line ari said to his assistant...you have alot of Jew hatred for a Chinaman

[Hopeless Semantic]

I didn't catch this, what happened?

People had accosted Sam for running naked through the woods. This is the initial movement towards introducing the werewolf element to the show. Also, they have Sookie's secret yet to induce...

[Blinken]

I really wanted Ari to take the job, I was annoyed that he ditched it because Vince was acting like a big baby about it.

[Blinken]

Oh I forgot you read the books.

[chairmenmeow47]

there is no way those hippy chick's boobs were real. hot, but i'd like someone to verify that for me, lol.

and i'm still enjoying the show, but the camp thing is running thin with me. camp + vampires is almost as prevalent as dark + angst vampires. think buffy. i'd also like to see someone dress anna in something that doesn't look like it was thrown together out of a donations bin of thin cotton mervyns wear as well.

and yes, lafayette wins this show.

[Hopeless Semantic]

what is camp...I'm not drawing on the meaning.

[KungFuJoe]

:::Spoilers::::

I haven't read the books, but heard from those who have that Sam is not a werewolf, but a shape shifter. He has transformed himself into his dog a few times thru the season already, but we just don't know it yet no? I don't know Sookie's secrt, but would like to be suprised with that one.

[Hopeless Semantic]

you are pretty on point kung fu, but the books leave it kind've ambiguous...

Well Buffy wins over all other Vampire shows, I wouldn't quite call Buffy campy more in the dark + angst group.

[chairmenmeow47]

re: entourage

i thought it was about not selling it and being your own boss? i think the whole radiohead stuff last week was cheesy, but i'm glad ari stuck to being ari. it would have been a complete corporate makeover for ari, in which he ulitmately would have fucked up. i think he made the right choice, and it didn't really have to do with vince's feelings, but more the way ari likes to work. of course he had to make sure his #1 client was protected through the whole thing, but i thought it was more about calling the shots than just "making it".

[roberto73]

I'm a reluctant fan of the show. It has just enough to keep me interested. One thing I'm glad to see is that they've toned down the "vampires = homosexuals" allegory. It's a nifty idea to play around with, but in the first few episodes it was so heavy-handed I expected the characters to nudge each other and wink whenever they said something loaded with symbolism.

"God hates fangs. Get it? See what we did there?"

[chairmenmeow47]

Well Buffy wins over all other Vampire shows, I wouldn't quite call Buffy campy more in the dark + angst group.

i meant the movie, sorry. i never touched the show with a ten foot poll :p

[Hopeless Semantic]

The allegory is more noticeable in the book, I think. I agree with you on that Roberto...but you didn't see last night's episode because it was pretty much back on.

[Blinken]

I got into this with Ally today, and I think Ari was gun ho about the job until he talked to Vince. The reaction was not what he was looking for and I think he felt that he was Vince behind. Although the being your own boss plays into it, he still has a partner who bosses him around. I think his wife knew which way he was leaning and gave him the push in that direction.

[Hopeless Semantic]

Hey this is the True Blood thread...resurrect the Entourage thread if you want to derail this thread ;)

[Blinken]

i meant the movie, sorry. i never touched the show with a ten foot poll :p

Oh well that is completly different. The Show>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>The Movie

[roberto73]

The allegory is more noticeable in the book, I think. I agree with you on that Roberto...but you didn't see last night's episode because it was pretty much back on.

No, I saw it. And you're right – it was definitely back, although it didn't seem quite as forced. Maybe I've gotten used to it.

see, i think he was more just initially excited. wow, someone wants to give me a ton of power and they're willing to pay a lot of money for it. but once he thought about it, i think a number of things showed it just wasn't for him. i'm sure vince's lack of enthusiasm helped push ari into saying no, but ari is not the type of person to make decisions based on what someone else wants. ultimately, i think ari enjoys being his own player in the game rather than someone's expensive pawn.

and back on topic, fuck you blinken, the movie is awesome!!!

I agree that Ari is not the type of person to make decisions based on what someone else wants, and that is why it bugged me. He seems to have a huge man crush on Vince and will do anything for the guy, like going into the desert and taking shrooms(which was just plain awesome).


and back on topic, fuck you blinken, the movie is awesome!!!

Fuck off!!! That movie is absolute shit, and if you don't believe me then you are retarded!! ;)

[chairmenmeow47]

Fuck off!!! That movie is absolute shit, and if you don't believe me then you are retarded!! ;)

***ROTATIONSLIMWANG, PAGING ROTATIONSLIMWANG, YOU HAVE SOME SHIT TALKING TO DO ON THE WHITE COURTESY PHONE, PAGING MR. WANG***

1. it's gung ho
2. Ari originally wasn't going to go on the trip but changed his mind in the middle of the episode
3. at the end of last week's episode, Vince tells Ari to do what he needs to do
4. Vince and Ari don't speak again until the end of this week's episode which means Vince is not an active influence. Ari didn't even return his phone calls.
5. Not to mention that when he gets into with what's her face, after already making the decision not to take the job, he says he will take it to screw her.

Blink, face it, you're just wrong.

[RotationSlimWang]

Blink is right about Buffy being a much better tv show than it was a movie. It was also a much better tv show than almost every other tv show ever made. That movie is fucking hilarious, Blink, you wobbly cocksucker. Just because the director and the studio fucked it up a bit does not change the fact that those are still the best valley girl characters ever written, nor that Paul Reubens is hilarious.

We can fight about it, if you want.

[suprefan]

Ok watched last nights episode, wow, lizzy bewbs galore. And what the hell with Bill coming out the ground and doing(literally) the dirty dirty with suki...

[unitedwestand]

Well ya finally got some Vampire killing last episode! Last Episode was DEFF one of the best.

[Jerm05]

why does the native vamp have to be the first vamp to die

[Jerm05]

what a fuckin episode..best show on TV

[suprefan]

Stop spoiling

[C DUB YA]

Yeah that episode tonight rocked the house.

had a real twin peaks feel to it tonight.

[gmoneyak]

Agreed..

[BlueDevil50]

quality episode indeed...can't believe there's only 2 episodes left!

[unitedwestand]

holy fuck. last night's episode was, uh pretty damn good.

[bleep]

this show has become one of my guilty pleasures. the protagonist, Sookie, is the least interesting and most annoying character though. Tara and LaFayette are my favs. last night's episode was spooky and awesome.

[Lurker_in_a_tree]

Has this been picked up for a second season yet???

[bleep]

Has this been picked up for a second season yet???
yes. http://www.broadcastingcable.com/article/CA6597049.html

[karecares]

just watched the 10th episode, wow it keeps getting better and better. really liked tara in this one, she's one of my faves.

Maybe a spoiler................ would asking who someone was be considered a spoiler?

[gmoneyak]

Me too, I loved how weirdly the episode ended. There was a lot of crazy shit going on.

[bleep]

to answer your question karecares, it's another supernatural being - a maenad.

[karecares]

thanks :) i just wikied it and it makes a lot of sense.


how many of you guys actually read the books? i haven't

[unitedwestand]

Another good episode last night! But fuck, does it leave you hangin.

[karecares]

anyone who's interested geraldo at large tonight will have jason stackhouse on with a 1 minute exclusive clip of tom episode. they're doing a vampire special, my friend works for the show and asked i pass this along :)

[Barbara, the ninja]

I JUST finished the first book a day ago. I LOVED it. It's cute, funny, and has a lot of dirty vampire sex. I haven't heard of this show (I don't have cable) and when I read this thread today I was so surprised! I'm downloading the first episode right now.

[bleep]

anyone who's interested geraldo at large tonight will have jason stackhouse on with a 1 minute exclusive clip of tom episode. they're doing a vampire special, my friend works for the show and asked i pass this along :)
the actor who plays Jason is an Aussie??!! i never would have guessed it...

[Jerm05]

season finale tonight..cant wait. cant wait. cant wait.

[C DUB YA]

gonna be good

[C DUB YA]

thanks :) i just wikied it and it makes a lot of sense.


how many of you guys actually read the books? i haven't

my wife is on book 4

[bleep]

time to switch to Big Love!!!!!!!

[wmgaretjax]

Big Love is too soapy for me, without the great camp of this show... the good tv season is starting to drop big time... alas...

[C DUB YA]

long wait till June.

[wmgaretjax]

long wait till June.

this is why I hate finding TV shows before their run is up... I actually have to wait to see new episodes... agh.

[stinkbutt]

Was it me or was that kind of a weak way to end the season

[allyjoy]

This was bullshit... they killed off the best character.

[bleep]

seriously

[wmgaretjax]

we don't know that he's dead.... he could be a vamp now...

[allyjoy]

then whose black foot with red nail polish was it? exactly.

[Blinken]

then whose black foot with red nail polish was it? exactly.

I must have missed this.

[wmgaretjax]

We don't know he's dead, that's all I'm saying... I'm not denying who was in the car... Bill only said he fed... Didn't say that he killed him.

[bleep]

even if he's a vamp, the boy is still dead. ha!

[Blinken]

The body in the car turned up two weeks later.

[wmgaretjax]

even if he's a vamp, the boy is still dead. ha!

ha. good point.

[C DUB YA]

I can tell you but that would spoil it.

[karecares]

i'm going into true blood withdrawl already :( what a great series, finale could've been better but then again it could have been worse.

so for those who've read the books has it made the series easier to follow? is the show pretty much a direct translation of the book?

[Pixiessp]

the last episode started out like gangbusters but slowed down towards the end. I'll bet Lafayette is not dead at all. He is such a great character they wouldn't dare kill him. What's up with that weird lady that Tara is so into to.


?

[bleep]

have not read the books. but here are two things i hope for next season:
1) new vamp Jessica will man up Bill and make him less emo
2) more Eric please
the writers and director can choose to deviate from the books, can't they?

[Pixiessp]

It's back on Sunday!!!!!! Can't wait!

[Pixiessp]

It's on tonite!!!!! I hope that is not Lafayette in that car.

[HEADSTRUCK]

me either, he is one of my fav people on the show. So excited, 9 more mins to go.

[HEADSTRUCK]

I think that lady used to be with the owner of the bar( cant seem to think of his name right now). I bet she is a shape shifter as well.

[Pixiessp]

she is definitely a shape shifter. She appears to be immortal too.

[BlueDevil50]

soooooooooo glad this show's back on =)

[4Ransom]

hell yea, glad the hbo summer shows are coming back. this show and entourage make sunday nights awesome again.

[blackhearts08]

last night's episode was awesome! i was surprised to see who was in the car and everything...can't wait for the rest of the season. it's looks amazing from the previews and what is to happen...

i'm glad we got some insight into sam and maryann's relationship, i was always wondering about it, since i didn't read the books. and then seeing eric at the end...

can it be sunday already???

[chairmenmeow47]

ok, figured lafayette wasn't dead, awesome.

i still have no clue why i watch this show. so much horrible writing & acting, and yet i watch...

it'll be years before big love comes back i'm sure :(

[4Ransom]

i know why i watch...anna paquin's perfect tits!

[BlueDevil50]

ok, figured lafayette wasn't dead, awesome.

i still have no clue why i watch this show. so much horrible writing & acting, and yet i watch...

it'll be years before big love comes back i'm sure :(

cuz it's entertaining...so many people just dislike to zone out and be entertained these days. plus it's a cool concept and crushes twilight in my opinion.

[chairmenmeow47]

i think i would be much more on board with this show if it wasn't for the main character's stupid love triangle, lol.

[Alligator Bogaloo]

i know why i watch...anna paquin's perfect tits!

i concur...

[HEADSTRUCK]

If sookie wasnt anna paquin I would like the show much more. She annoys the shit out of me.


why do you say that about big love Ivy? I just started watching last year and need to catch up on the rest before it comes back on.

[chairmenmeow47]

because the breaks for big love have been a year and a half in the past. this past season was fucking phenomenal though and i simply cannot WAIT!!!!!!! i'm so glad they showed the re-runs on HBO all weekend :)

[marooko]

i know why i watch...anna paquin's perfect tits!

i concur...

google just showed me a sweet ass shot.

[bleep]

finally had time to watch the season premiere.

bill and sookie's relationship make me nauseous.

[stinkbutt]

Can someone explain to me what's the deal with the lady who throws the orgy parties

[OnlyNonStranger]

Nobody really knows yet(though I haven't seen tonight's episode). I think she's Pan or Dionysus in female form of some kind.

[suprefan]

Best line of the night "Am I Going to have to throw you of a window...that is closed?"

[allyjoy]

Nobody really knows yet(though I haven't seen tonight's episode). I think she's Pan or Dionysus in female form of some kind.

my money's with you!

[MusicIsMyBoyfriend]

Best line of the night "Am I Going to have to throw you of a window...that is closed?"

That phrasing + Bill's accent = Lols

Also, was I seeing correctly... was one of the vamporns Sookie was checking out called "Intercouse with a Vampire"? Brilliant!

[hawkingvsreeve]

Dude. Where the hell have you been?

[MusicIsMyBoyfriend]

Me? I've been sat on my couch catching up on TB obvs.

Haha, nah I am always lurking around.

[stinkbutt]

Well I just got around to the newest episode and it was pretty crazy.

Any thoughts?

[suprefan]

Jason has the right idea banging the preachers wife. Bet you she gets knocked up now. Sooki is in some trouble and maybe she gets brainwashed? And there will be more orgy scenes on Sunday, cause thats the norm now.

[bleep]

it's a war, y'all
AU1Q1ekwlfg

notice sookie in bed w/ a blond individual @ ~1:20. eric?

[miscorrections]

I hate having to wait for each episode, drives me crazy. I'm scared for Sam.

[4Ransom]

god i love this show. love how many intricate details they have thought up about vampire life.

and how good is that theme song too? i never fast forward cuz that song is so rad. i think its from a country singer though...Jace Everett. has anybody listened to any of his other stuff? i wonder if he always has that type of sound, or if that song is an exception.

oh, and i am hoping for an epic battle between bill and mary ann someday.

[4Ransom]

it's a war, y'all
AU1Q1ekwlfg

notice sookie in bed w/ a blond individual @ ~1:20. eric?

saw this on tv the other night and man, this season looks like it's going to get insane. i cant fuckin wait! and yea, that looks like it might be eric...

[Pixiessp]

awww hell!! This is going to be a great season. On that note, I am going to go catch up on the last 2 shows. :)

[bleep]

and how good is that theme song too? i never fast forward cuz that song is so rad. i think its from a country singer though...Jace Everett. has anybody listened to any of his other stuff? i wonder if he always has that type of sound, or if that song is an exception.

i think the opening song is so fitting for the show. maybe one of the reasons TB got an Emmy nod for its main title design? at the comic con panel, alan ball talked about how he initially used that song as a place-holder, never really intending for it to be the theme as it is now. he later changed his mind when he couldn't find anything that worked as well as that everett song does. and to answer your question, i'm unfamiliar with the rest of everett's work.

[bleep]

i just spent the last half-hour laughing at these MS paints. yes, i'm a sad individual. the story so far...

Since it was asked I do have a friend that reads the books and yes Sookie does hook up with Eric after Bill goes back to what's her face but so far the show is quite different according to them

[miscorrections]

DOUBLE SPOILER

In the books Sookie ends up in a vampire marriage with Eric. So I'm curious to see how the show plays out.

[stinkbutt]

I know this seems so crazy after a friend told me all this from the books and the orgies aren't as crazy I guess

[miscorrections]

I personally would not mind attending one of Maryanne's parties.

[stinkbutt]

Chat is practically one of Maryanne's parties

[miscorrections]

But there's no soup with juniper.

[wmgaretjax]

this show rubs me the right way.

[miscorrections]

I'm on pins and needles until tonight's episode finishes downloading.

[Pixiessp]

I forgot to watch. Damn!!!!! I hope Sam's okay.

[wmgaretjax]

I'm on pins and needles until tonight's episode finishes downloading.

This episode was just massive build up... shit's gonna go down...

[4Ransom]

SPOILER

at least we finally got a good explanation about marry ann. that was interesting. but other than that, yea, it was mostly build up. next week looks like it should be pretty awesome.

btw, i had a hunch that one fang banger was the spy. and you guys think jason is dead?

i love this show. :)

[wmgaretjax]

SPOILERS

I don't think he's dead. they made a point not to show him getting shot or the gun that she used... and it made a strange sound. So I'm not convinced it's a straight up gun. we'll see... there's no way he's dead.

[4Ransom]

yea, i dont think so either. hes too entertaining.

by the way, as far as spoilers go, i think its a general rule that once the episode airs, everything is fair game, and if you look in here before youve watched it, its your own fault, so this if fair warning...i'm not going to say SPOILER at the beginning of each post from now on.

[stinkbutt]

Oh the puns

"Sookie I don't have time for games"

So who let Godrich out?

[blackhearts08]

Can't wait to see next week's episode. Last night's was so good. Hard to believe there's only 5 episodes (I believe) left.

[4Ransom]

So who let Godrich out?

yea, im a little confused about that too...

Imprisoned with Hugo in the F.O.T.S. church, Sookie uses her telepathic powers to reach out to Bill, who’s being detained at the hotel by a stubbornly obsessive Lorena.

(August 9)
Sookie’s captivity takes an unexpected turn when Eric arrives to do his master’s bidding on the eve of the Fellowship’s lockdown. In Bon Temps, Sam finds himself in hot water after making a gruesome discovery at Merlotte’s, and Andy proves no help in coming to his defense. Sent home by Bill, Jessica and Hoyt learn that when it comes to sex, every time is the first time. Tara and Eggs devour a mysterious meal prepared by Maryann, with unexpected results. After Jason pays off his debt to the vampires, Godric looks to enlighten his more single-minded followers.

[sames44]

Is the season finale August 30? I'm dying waiting a week in between episodes now, I can't imagine how bad it's going to be waiting for the next season.

[iloveorangejuice]

I'm getting tired of that cunt Maryann. But it was funny seeing Tara getting fucked in the ass two episodes ago.

[bleep]

Is the season finale August 30? I'm dying waiting a week in between episodes now, I can't imagine how bad it's going to be waiting for the next season.
the True Blood drink (i kid you not) gets launched in September. just in time for the finale which is slated for September 13 i believe.

[sames44]

I got an email about that! Blood Orange soda, right?

[miscorrections]

Does anyone else wonder what's up with Andy? Maryann didn't seem to be able to control him, and Daphne said she couldn't control supernaturals. Think he just wasn't there long enough or maybe he's something else too?

[wmgaretjax]

I've thought that for a while now... just seemed like they've worked so hard to make him hostile to all that is freaky, the irony of making him turn out freaky seems inevitable.

[miscorrections]

Yeah, I sort of thought that too. God I can't wait for next week's episode.

[Blinken]

I was wondering about Andy myself, but I seem to remember him having the same black eyes during one of the other orgies. I have to go back and rewatch the orgy scenes I guess . . .

If he is a supernatural what kind do you think he is? I think it is something he hasn't even figured out himself. Maybe a werewolf? They have been mentioned in the series before, and it would easy for him to blame the scratches and waking up in the woods on his drinking.

[4Ransom]

yea, i was wondering about andy also. i wouldnt be surprised if he was something supernatural, since it seems a lot of people are in this show.

or maybe its cuz he didnt smoke any of marry ann's super-chronic that everybody else seemed to smoke that night. i wonder if she laces it with some kind of evil, lustful spell? if so, i wouldnt mind getting my hands on some of that...

[Blinken]

mmmmmmmmmm evil super-chronic

I swear her parties look amazing minus the whole trying to kill people thing. And since no one remembers anything there's no culpability. All around good times.

looked like a taser to me.

[bleep]

yes, at a recession-friendly price of $16 for four i think.

LOL at the virgin twins Hoyt and Jessica. major LOLs over Eggs' real name being Benedict. this show.

but i'm hooked like crack.

[sames44]

I was wondering about Andy myself, but I seem to remember him having the same black eyes during one of the other orgies.

I remember that too, maybe he just showed up late to the party this last time & that's why he wasn't affected.
Anyone who has read the books - is Andy in the books?

edit - nvm, I asked someone who has read the books & got spoilers

[OnlyNonStranger]

I don't mean to be rude but were you watching when he got shot? They showed the gun she had and him being shot, they won't let him die but he definitely got shot. Though it was pretty obvious, in my opinion, that it was one of those vampire killing guns. Probably a wood bullet or something so he's not going to die.

It's probably just like getting a big sliver.

Wait. Like, you mean, not a straight up gun? Whoa... Imagine that?

[miscorrections]

If you watch the teasers from ComiCon it pretty much tells you what he got shot with.

[Courtney]

Andy's going to help save the day. Because they wouldn't include episodes and episodes of him being pathetic and useless for nothing.

[Pixiessp]

Get down, Andy!

You know what I like about this show? Sam takes his shirt off with decent regularity. I wish Eric would too, though. (Bill is starting to bore me, but how great is he with Lorena? Seriously, waaaaaaay more chemistry there.)

[bleep]

amen to that sister. jason is shirtless 3/4 of the time he's on screen too. while he's not as classically handsome as the others, there's no denying that the boy is fit.

[luveebunni08]

looked like a taser to me.

i think it was a paint gun. you remember how steve was driving around with jason having him do target practice? i think his wife was just so mad she grabbed whatever was in the car. he's not dead. jason has a looooong way to go in the series.

[Pixiessp]

Is it Sunday yet??

[MusicIsMyBoyfriend]

yes, at a recession-friendly price of $16 for four i think.

LOL at the virgin twins Hoyt and Jessica. major LOLs over Eggs' real name being Benedict. this show.

but i'm hooked like crack.


Haha is that why they call him Eggs then?! I always wondered that.


I think Jessica and Hoyt are the most adorabke thing since puppies in a basket. Also, LOL @ Bleeding Love during their 1st time.


Did you guys hear that Vampyre Bill and Sookie are engaged?! Well Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer.

[bleep]

SPOILER-ish

eric: i'm following Godric's orders and getting you out, that's all
sookie: he's your maker isn't he?
eric: don't use words you won't understand
sookie: you have a lot of love for him
eric: don't use words i don't understand

i <3 eric so, so much.

[4Ransom]

great episode!

i <3 eric so, so much.

fuck eric. godric is the maaaan!

[wmgaretjax]

Godric is quickly becoming one of the most interesting characters in the show. I love the interplay between him and Eric, and I'm really curious about his and Jason's apparent fascination with each other.

I'm glad Bill whacked that bitch upside the head, she was getting on my nerves. I do not like her character at all and I am not interested in the love triangle bullshit. At least Godric broke that shit up and made her look like an idiot.

That hymen shit is a serious fucking bummer.

The showdown in the church was wicked. I love this show and am gonna be devasted when I have to wait 9 months for the next season.

[bleep]

fuck eric. godric is the maaaan!
godric = the yoda vampire ?

[bleep]

Godric is quickly becoming one of the most interesting characters in the show. I love the interplay between him and Eric
bromance. sexy.

sigh, i no longer no what i am saying.

[miscorrections]

Godric is so completely amazing. Also - FINALLY A VAMPIRE IS SHORT. This has been bugging me SOOOO MUCH. If they were REALLY that old they'd be a lot smaller than modern-day humans.

[miscorrections]

I guess I feel more strongly about this than I realized.

[bleep]

i thought they casted a short actor because Godric was just a kid when he was turned.

[miscorrections]

Well whatever the reason at least he was short. Hasn't this bothered anyone else?

[wmgaretjax]

Bill is pretty short...

[miscorrections]

Yeah, but most of them aren't. I realize that tall translates better for viewing pleasure and a lot of the mythology falls apart if they're visibly quite different from regular people but still.

[lowfront]

god this last episode was so fucking good!!!

[miscorrections]

I am excited to see the aftermath of the Luke appearance. It kills me that this show is only once a week.

[bleep]

"I don't know what you heard, but those were screams of pleasure."

[sames44]

me too - in next week's preview it looked like some didn't move quickly enough to avoid shrapnel - how is this possible?

[miscorrections]

I guess if it went off instantaneously. But would just the shrapnel kill them? Since it was silver, not wood, wouldn't someone be able to get the silver out and then they'd heal?

[sames44]

I would think so - but dawn was approaching - man I can't wait for the next episode.

[jgonen]

I would think so - but dawn was approaching - man I can't wait for the next episode.

good point, next episode is going to be devastating.

virgin for life, such a bummer!

[iloveorangejuice]

If I was cutting into a pie or whatever it was and a blood colored liquid was coming out....I wouldn't have eaten it. Stupid Tara

[miscorrections]

Seriously, how fucking stupid are they? Oh, every time we hang out with Maryann we black out but of course there's no connection. Let's eat this bloody fucking pie.

I liked that storyline but now it's just irritating.

[4Ransom]

the vamps need to come back from texas to deal with that crazy bitch.

[MusicIsMyBoyfriend]

Jason was the shit last night. Poor Jessica with the healing hymen and all. I just about died when Bill walked in on her and Hoyt the first time, the look on Bill's face. Holy Balls @ the bloody heart pie and Tara and Eggs getting all crazy on each other afterward. Sam is screwed. And ditto on being so glad to see Lorena get what she deserved, hopefully we won't see her again for a while, but it was entertaining watching Lil' Sookie get all up in her grill about trying to steal her man... er um, vampire. Was it just me or was Eric a little more smiley than usual tonight?! I loved him trying to pass as one of the L.O.D. recruits.

Also, Godric pwns Jesus. Hehe.

This was probably my fave episode so far this season.

[suprefan]

I wonder who dies next episode from what happend at the end.

[miscorrections]

Yeah I just rewatched bits and I was wrong, there were wood bullets in there too. So people definitely die but I think they'll probably mostly be incidental ones we don't care too much about. Hopefully Godric doesn't die, but I'm betting Eric gets injured.

[bleep]

Bill, oh Bill. you better step it up boy, Eric is stealing your thunder.

“True Blood” Showdown: Team Bill vs. Team Eric
By Julie Steinberg

http://s.wsj.net/media/teambillteameric_E_20090810155339.jpg
Entertainment Weekly’s vampire cover last week was devoted to the men who populate our nightmarish fantasies, or fantastical nightmares, or whatever collective craze for vampires is obsessing so many of us right now.

Online readers were asked to rank their favorites and to no one’s surprise (with the exception of those of us who struggle with his noun-verb construction) Robert Pattinson took 49% of the vote. More interesting was the breakdown between “True Blood”’s top contenders: Team Eric scored 19%. Team Bill? A measly 6%. The masses have spoken: Team Bill, well, sucks. Here are our top reasons why everyone’s Season One favorite vamp has started to sour and why Eric Northman is a welcome beam of Viking sunshine.

Bill’s passivity. No longer the aggressive, defend-to-the-death Civil War soldier, Bill (played by Stephen Moyer) spends a lot of time moping around, being held prisoner, wallowing in the past, or, you know, just mulling things over. Sure, Lorena held him captive for a few days at Eric’s behest. That said, his finally taking action and running into the Fellowship of the Sun screaming “Soooookie” was less than effective. Even Sookie looked at him expectantly, waiting to see what he was going to do to Steve Newlin. And he did… nothing; Jason Stackhouse ended up saving the day. And Bill had the gall to proclaim irrelevantly to Eric that Sookie was still his. We get it, Bill, Sookie’s yours – even though you show a fifth of the interest Eric does in actually wanting her. Darn it Bill, you haven’t done one remotely useful thing this season, except maybe refrain from ruining Jessica’s relationship with Hoyt.

Eric (played by Alexander Skarsgård), on the other hand, isn’t content to sit around. He’s a doer, a go-getter, a Swedish Ivy-Leaguer overachiever, if you will. Even if he did let Sookie walk into a trap, he was just being loyal to Godric, his maker/BFF/potential lover. Eric’s all business, the Putin of the supernatural world, and his quiet authority is infinitely more powerful than Bill’s temper tantrums.

Even Bill’s looks are starting to suffer. As cool as clotted cream in season 1, Bill’s started to show the effects of some aging, which, seeing as he’s a vampire and theoretically stuck in time, can’t be a good thing. His pallor, erotically chalky at first, pales in comparison to Eric’s tan and muscular physique that screams eternal virility (plus, his whiteness appears to end at his chin, like a bad make-up job — we’re looking at you, “True Blood” stylists!). The spark between Eric and Sookie has only intensified, whereas the love scenes between her and Bill are lukewarm at best.

Move over Bill, head on back to Lorena, and let Eric carry the rest of the season (on his impossibly broad shoulders, please).

[gmoneyak]

This show continues to bring it every week..

I've only been wondering if Lafayette will have a bigger impact towards the end of the season, he's been somewhat absent the past few episodes. It seems like him and Eric still have some unfinished business, I'm still holding on to the notion that he's going to be turned at some point.

I also think Andy Belfleur will play a major role in bringing Maryann down.. Maybe he'll be the one that frees Sam next episode.

[dartagnanh]

Guilty of not knowing. Checking it out too. :)

[miscorrections]

They're right, Bill is looking raggedy and being pretty boring. Go Eric!

[suprefan]

Yeah I just rewatched bits and I was wrong, there were wood bullets in there too. So people definitely die but I think they'll probably mostly be incidental ones we don't care too much about. Hopefully Godric doesn't die, but I'm betting Eric gets injured.

I bet you Eric gets mortally wounded at Godrichs expense, Sookie and Jason go unharmed, although I wonder if Jason dodges it since he is like 2 feet from him. I dont think Godrich can die yet. Theres more plans for him later supposedly. And yeah to the story, Eric all the way. Bummer for Jessica to being eternal virgin.

[Pixiessp]

I missed it yesterday. :( I have this way of missing the shows I love.

[4Ransom]

there are still people who dont have dvr? do you still use pay phones too? are you viewing this web page on a dial up modem?

[suprefan]

Some people dont spend the moneyz on such conviniences.

[bleep]

oh, you don't need a DVR. just a high-speed internet connection and the ability to snoop in the right places.

[miscorrections]

there are still people who dont have dvr? do you still use pay phones too? are you viewing this web page on a dial up modem?

There are a lot of people who don't have tvs, period. But personally I think why bother when the internet provides?

i don't have cable. i have other vices to support.

[wmgaretjax]

paying for DVR is retarded. paying for cable is retarded. with hulu/netflix/torrents for the rest there is no point in dealing with that shit unless you care about sports.

[miscorrections]

Agreed. Especially when the torrents are up really fucking fast, which they always are.

[bleep]

but maybe we should start paying in the hopes that Bill gets a better stylist and make-up artist.

[wmgaretjax]

but maybe we should start paying in the hopes that Bill gets a better stylist and make-up artist.

If they had reasonably priced subscriptions to the individual shows. I would pay. They should get on that. But I don't want all their crap.

[miscorrections]

Poor Bill, he's at such a disadvantage next to Eric.

[wmgaretjax]

that's what you get for moping for a 100 years.

dude I pay for the hbo man, its nice having 8 hbo channels for only $15 a month.

[wmgaretjax]

dude I pay for the hbo man, its nice having 8 hbo channels for only $15 a month.

To get that I have to pay a bunch more fucking cable costs though. That's just on top of your normal cable. I'd pay 10 bucks for a season of the show... non drm. That's the only HBO show I'm interested in right now anyways... At most there are two shows on HBO I'm interested in at one time.

paying for DVR is retarded. paying for cable is retarded. with hulu/netflix/torrents for the rest there is no point in dealing with that shit unless you care about sports.

i can understand why people don't have tv's and cable, but my point is that if you are going to pay for cable tv, and watch it, there is no excuse for not having dvr too. im not positive, but i think the price is pretty much the same. that way you can watch whatever you want whenever you want, and without commercials. and tivo records shows it thinks you like that you might not even know about, which is also pretty awesome.

obviously if you know how to find everything on the net, then good for you, but a lot of people don't, so dvr is the next best thing. and yea, the whole sports thing is pretty important too. not to mention, there are plenty of other things on tv that are not available on the net.

[wmgaretjax]

there are plenty of other things on tv that are not available on the net.

you aren't looking in the right places. unless you want some local PBS programming... anything syndicated is on the net if you know where to look. even the worst garbage shows up.

seriously, I have RSS feeds that get download random British, Canadian, Australian, and Swedish cooking shows that I like to watch.

If it broadcasts to more than 10,000 households, someone's capturing it and uploading it to the internet.

thanks man! i wont make you track down shows for me, but i will take you up on an invite to any good sites if you can find one. and sorry if this is a stupid question, but what do invites have to do with your ratio? do the people you invite affect your own ratio?

[4Ransom]

Also, with sports, if you look hard enough, you can find a live stream of mostly any sporting event, as well.

ive found a site where everybody posts their streams for sporting events (specifically nfl), however most of the streams usually suck, if they even work at all.

thanks man! i wont make you track down shows for me, but i will take you up on an invite to any good sites if you can find one. and sorry if this is a stupid question, but what do invites have to do with your ratio? do the people you invite affect your own ratio?

Generally, you only get invites if you have a stellar ratio. Which can be tricky on some sites.

I currently have an invite to a pretty stellar site for day of TV shows (although the site is not restricted to TV content), something like 70 different shows are posted on average each day. Let's start with that and see if it cures some of your woes.... PM me a good email address (i don't think hotmail is allowed).

[jgonen]

stop talking about this bullshit and lets get back to gossip and spoilers. Jesus fucking Christ!

[4Ransom]

ok, i hope godric doesnt sacrifice himself and jump in front of others to save them from the bomb. and also, like eric said, why does such a wise vampire surround himself with such idiots? his little underlings are retards.

[tessalasset]

i just started this show today and the first two episodes are better than the entire twilight series. i think my obsession has finally changed.

sucks i cant read this thread until i'm done tho.

god he is hot.

[bleep]

welcome to the fold, Tessa.

ok, i hope godric doesnt sacrifice himself and jump in front of others to save them from the bomb.

SPOILERS
One of Jason & Sookie's grandparents was a fairy. As a result, some of this grandparent's descendants may possess special powers - Sookie is a telepathe, Jason we're not sure yet (but he's great in the sack, right?). Also, a fairy's blood is exotic to vampires (why Lorena remarked that Barry's blood tasted different). I get the feeling that Godric, being super old with super keen senses, sniffed the fairy blood in Jason and thus, his intrigue.

I saw my first episode of this last night. I'm hooked. I don't even know what's going on most of the time, but I suspect I just found something to fill my unemployed time. Hot damn.
