Re: True Blood
 

Erin and I are looking forward to it. :D ...and that vampire smiley is cool! :)

Re: True Blood
 

haha, yeah I saw that and had to post :D

Re: True Blood
 

I am! When does it start up again? I'll have to subscribe to HBO again then.

Re: True Blood
 

Sunday, June 26 at 9/8c

Re: True Blood
 

I cancelled HBO shortly after True Blood finished. Will call Comcast back soon. I don't want to miss a thing!

Re: True Blood
 

HBO has a season preview video up on their site! Check it out!

Re: True Blood
 

5 Days! http://i196.photobucket.com/albums/a...incoffin-2.gif

Re: True Blood
 

i know! im stoked!!

Re: True Blood
 

You know 'dat! I can't wait. I hope there's not much new characters.

Re: True Blood
 

Unless they're sexy female vampires or witches. :r

Re: True Blood
 

No duhh! They have to be hot if they are going to be on that show. :noon

Re: True Blood
 

YES SIR, the wait is finally over folks!!!

Re: True Blood
 

Well that was interesting...

Re: True Blood
 

Loving it!

Re: True Blood
 

Very interesting start to the season! I'm tempted to log on to HBO Go and view the second episode but then I'd probably have to wait two weeks to see a new one.

Re: True Blood
 

I thought it was semi-slow, but they need to set up the story lines for the new season in the first couple episodes. I do like the direction Tara and Jessica's stories are going. :xxx

Re: True Blood
 

I'm going to have to download it today, love that show...I mean the wife loves it..lol

Re: True Blood
 

I'm excited about the new characters. I cannot wait to see how it all develops!

Re: True Blood
 

I was waiting for Tara to pop her top last night. LOL

That episode nearly jumped the shark, to me. :p Fairyland...meh. The witches...:sh They had it lined up for the ramp, and aborted just before they hit it.

Since not everyone has seen the episode, I'll try not to give anything away. I was surprised to see where Bill is, and wonder when we'll see Russell again. Tara's storyline will definitely be interesting to follow, assuming they keep a focus on it at all. Lafayette and the witches...hmmmm...that one has potential. Sherriff Andy...LMAO!!! Over time, I've grown to like Eric, so I hope they keep him as a major player. Sam's little get-together was quite interesting, and what the hell is going on with his little brother (and mom)? Arlene's baby...:confused:, but it seems like they're trying to set something up there.

I think that about sums up last night's episode, doesn't it? LOL

Now that it's started, at least it's something to watch while I wait for Game of Thrones to come back. :p

Re: True Blood
 

we watched last night, agree it was a little slow, so think we will wait a couple weeks and get 3/4 of them to watch in a row, get a little more story out of it

interested to see what happens with jason

Re: True Blood
 

Episode 2 is on Comcast On Demand already.

Re: True Blood
 

Way too many storylines. And they keep bringing major stories with characters we just don't care about. Tara, Sam, Lafayette, Jessica/Hoyt, even Jason are all fine when they are involved in Sookie, Bill and Eric's story, otherwise I just don't care. To be honest, that's one of the things I did like about the books. Since they were written solely from Sookie's perspective, it kept them from getting too distracted with all this extra baggage. As it is, it's turning into Entourage for vampires. I'll still keep watching, but with no expectations of a story or actual dramatic tension.

Re: True Blood
 

I was disappointed in the premiere. The fairy thing was to much in my opinion.

Re: True Blood
 

Well...thoughts about episode 2?

Is the lack of posts in this thread an indication that folks are not impressed with the direction of this season?

Re: True Blood
 

I actually liked it a lot. I was worried about the fairy crap, but that actually ended up being pretty cool. I think Bill is a badass King, and Eric is always being Eric. Interesting direction they're taking Jason's character, I dunno how I feel about that, but I guess everybody else in the show has something weird/supernatural about them, so why not. Jessica's character is my gf's favorite, and I think she's a cool character too, so the storyline they're taking is interesting. All in all I'm enjoying it just as much (if not more) than the previous seasons.

Re: True Blood
 

The panther thing confused me. I guess I don't remember from the last season, but I thought Jason's girlfriend and the other guy were werewolves. So now there are werewolves, were-panthers, and shape shifters?

Re: True Blood
 

It's just an indication that it was a holiday weekend, and not everyone has had a chance to watch it on their DVR. :p

I liked it, honestly, but I really don't care for the witches and their leader. She's yet another evil beyotch that they will fight with for a season, and finally dispatch at the end (I hope). I wonder who they'll bring back to life from being a vampire. Will someone volunteer, so that they can be with their chosen human again? (Bill, Jessica, someone else?) I'm sure we will see Bill continue to pine for Sookie, and her want to be back with him, or maybe Alcide will be the one she pines for (though he hasn't shown up yet this season). I like Jessica's character and the direction they're heading with her. I hope she gets naughty. :p As for Eric, I have no idea what's going on there. He seems to have some sense of honor to him, and I like that. I hope that his character stays a main part of everything this year.

So far, I'm enjoying the new season. :)

Re: True Blood
 

Great, thanks for the feedback. I am enjoying it too. How many have you read the books? I have some friends who have read the books and are kind of upset with the direction of the show. They claim a lot of the plot is different from the book, which makes them not enjoy the series.

Anyone else dislike Tara's character? I feel like it doesn't even fit, her being in New Orleans and all. Well I do understand she is back in episode 2, but I got the feeling she would be leaving very soon. Of course, I'm not going to object to more of those steamy sex scenes with her girlfriend :D

Also, I about fell out of my chair when that boy was licking Jason's head wound. Jason's reaction was perfect! hahaha

Re: True Blood
 

I haven't read the books, but I'm glad they aren't following them exactly. Apparently in the books they killed off Lafayette in the first book, but in the TV series they kept him around because he was a popular character...which is great because I think his character is hilarious.

And yes, I've become more and more annoyed with Tara's character. I was kind of excited when they didn't even have her in town in the main storyline. I was sad when they brought her back :( rofl (although her gf is hot!)

Re: True Blood
 

Too many different things going on at once. Makes me feel like they are running out of ideas. Keep the tops coming off, that's what keeps me interested. :noon

Re: True Blood
 

I just watched the preview for episode 3. Looks like Tara is here to stay, and we even see Alcide again! :banger

Re: True Blood
 

I think Tara and Jessica need to join that parade. :D

Re: True Blood
 

No doubt!

Re: True Blood
 

blah, last episode was garbage, they are losing me with this season.

Re: True Blood
 

Not a fan of the whole Jason/Panther subplot, but find some of the other story lines pretty intriguing.

Re: True Blood
 

Wathed the last episode last night. I had to chuckle at the line waiting for Jason. Like he'd have enough juice to impregnate all of them. Not sure where that storyline is going, whether he will actually turn or not. I'm sure that we'll find out he's something else, and can't be turned into a panther.

I laughed plenty at the "new" Eric. The fact that he was so apologetic...LOL The line of the episode: "You killed my fairy godmother!" :r:r And my wife thinks he's "pretty".

Can't stand the head witch. Looking forward to seeing her get killed off, hopefully by Eric. http://i612.photobucket.com/albums/t...-smiley-19.gif

How about the lawyer chick with Bill? Glad she's joined the party (unlike Jessica and Tara). :p

Good to see Alcide return. I like his character, but not too keen on Debbie being back, though she does look nice all cleaned up.

I thought this episode was just OK. Nothing real standout in it, IMO. Seemed more like a bridge/waste of an episode to get to something more in the future. Oh well...it's not like I'm NOT going to watch the show. LOL

Re: True Blood
 

For me, episode 4 was a great improvement to the season. I really cannot wait to see what happens to Jason with both panther and vamp in him. Well, I say that, but I could also see where that wouldn't matter. Jason has drank `V` before, so it could prove that this was just showing how his life was saved. All you book readers, try not to spoil this :)

Re: True Blood
 

Damn! We came so close to seeing Jessica naked. What a freaking tease! :D

Re: True Blood
 

Last nights episode got things back on track for me. I thought the last few episodes were lacking........ IDK something.

Re: True Blood
 

No $#it!!! Is it bad that I'm really hoping she goes for it at some point? :D

I liked the episode, and the "new" Eric has me laughing all the time! I like what they've done with his character. My wife loves the fact that he walks around with his shirt off all the time. LOL I also laughed at the reaction that the lawyer had to Bill after he glamoured her. Now to the things that will evolve in the next few episodes. Jesus and Lafayette down in Mexico with Jesus' grandfather...that may provide something big, it seems. Lafayette may be more powerful that he or anyone else realizes. They seemed to hint at that when he joined the circle at the group. I really really hate Marnie. Can't wait for them to kill her off. But with the info that they provided about the witch who burned at the stake necromancing the vamps to their deaths at that time, I wonder if/who will fall under that spell? And the Hoyt/Jessica saga...will he ever decide to be changed? In order for that to work out, I think he will eventually have to give in and allow her to change him. Jason...will he turn into a panther or not? Next week will be a full moon, so we shall see. Alcide and the local pack...will Debbie be pulled back into being a V addict? It seems it might happen. How much more of Pam's face will fall off? How far into the V spiral will Andy fall? And what about Terry and Arlene and the baby...that should be a good one. And then the big question...what will happen with the Bill/Sookie/Eric triangle now? Only time will tell for all of these.

Re: True Blood
 

You forgot "How much more incest will there be?".

Re: True Blood
 

Damn, I never thought about it like that. I just assumed that it would never be brought up. But, you may be be right Sir. :banger

Sam and his brother, that is an odd one. I foresee Tommy joining Sam's new circle of friends.

Re: True Blood
 

It's something that keeps coming up to me, because of the fact that she won't age, and he will, and the issues that seem to be cropping up now, with her being vampire and he being human. Keeps me guessing, though.

Forgot about the new Tommy/Sam drama. Not sure how that will work out. It will be very interesting, though. I don't know if he could be sophisticated enough to join that group, though.

Re: True Blood
 

After watching the preview for next week, I would agree that Debbie goes back to her old ways.

Re: True Blood
 

Damn, poor Jason! Jessica is all about him right now.

I really wish Bill would have staked Eric, I'm sick of his character. This whole `good guy` Eric, is pathetic.

It would seem that Tara is only shown this season for the sex quota. Other than that her story line is pointless.

Its pretty damn funny that Sam (or Tommy technically) hooked up with the real Sam's girl and then kicked her to curb that way. Sam is going to be PISSED!!!!

And Sook, well, she needs to get her head on straight and finally get with Alcide.

Pretty decent episode, but nothing over the top.

Re: True Blood
 

I wish I was a Werepanther......

Re: True Blood
 

Hell, i'd like any of those supernatural powers!

Re: True Blood
 

cept maybe being a Fay, Sookie said it best, "how fuuking lame"!
