Precisely - some of the many reasons I dig this show.

 

[user79]

Yeah the recycling was sooo funny! lol

Although I'm not liking how the TV show is turning Eric into some blood-thirsty bad guy vampire. In the book he's much more calm, cool and collected and not some evil dude. He would never lock up a bunch of humans in some dungeon only to eat their intestines...lol! Although damn, that actor has one hot bod. *drool* BTW I found a clip of some of his earlier work prior to True Blood - be forewarned, some nudity in this:

YouTube - Alexander Skarsgård - Om Sara (About Sara) Part 5

Ok enough about that! lol

I'm liking this new girl Jessica, she's not actually in the books but I'm curious what mischief she'll get up to. I also thought it was so cute when Bill finally tells Sookie that he loves her. Aw

BTW, that Marianne character - isn't that the same actress who played Ro Laren in Star Trek TNG? Haha!

^ I read this interview with Alexander and he says that in the 2nd season we'll be seeing a different side to Eric (seems like inspiration from his character in the books).

also, episode 2 preview!

btw I was able to find those because of a pretty good True Blood blog, Loving True Blood in Dallas. Good place to get your fix!

I just got into this show (Late, I know) but I already watched the entire first season, ( seriously, I watched it in one day.. thats 12 hours well spent lol ) I don't get HBO, so I just download it.

 

[Makeup Emporium]

Love this show! I think they will def turn Lafayette and he is going to make one kick-ass vampire! I would hate to lose him on the show. I love how he stated that he was of low moral character so they could use him...

He was so badass when he pull the metal out of the dead guys leg.

That bible camp is hilarious. I would rather poke myself repeatedly in the eye then be stuck there!

I def need to get the Sookie book series!

 

[Kinderwhore]

I've taken to quoting Bill in everyday conversation. That's normal, right?

"AH AM VAMPHAAAR".

 

[MxAxC-_ATTACK]

bill yelled at sookie! and she deserved it! I haven't read the books yet so I have no idea what happens next, and i cant decide if I want to keep it that way or not!

Well the whole Jessica thing isn't in the books so they're pretty liberal with their interpretation of the books - the show only takes certain storylines from the novels and they have changed or added additional characters and plotlines. So it's anyone's guess what will happen with Jessica as she wasn't in the books at all. I really like her though! Haha...

But a lot of the elements are the same as book 2, like the missing sheriff in Dallas, Eric wanting to hire Sookie to mind read, etc. I'm already excited for season 3 - those who read the books will know why

LOL

I want to see more of Sam's story as well, I really liked him in season 1.

I just finished the third book and I'm super excited to see how they adapt the third season from the book... because the book was so good I hope they don't change anything. haha

I really like the Jessica character too. She's really interesting and I can't wait to see how they play her out. I'm also excited for how the rest of season plays out after reading the 2nd book.

Ooh, I'm excited for book 3 too. Hell, I'm especially excited for book FOUR! C'mon Alan Ball...

I have to say, the ending of episode 2, season 2 was so lame. It was very illogical.

When Jessica was starting to attack her family, Sookie could have just told them to rescind her invitation and she'd have to leave the house. Instead she just stood there shouting "Jessica, stop!" LOL

Also, when Bill finally arrives and hypnotizes the lil girl, Jessica was just standing around waiting, she could have mauled her father by that point. It was just silly, I liked the idea but they could have improved the time sequence in the script.

 

[miss sha]

Yeah, everyone else was raving about episode 2 but I really didn't like it as much as I liked the premiere.

Also, Jessica wasn't attacking her father because Bill demanded that she stop, and when your maker calls, you gotta listen (hence book 3!).

But I definitely agree that Sookie was being dumb. I think she's my least favorite character on the show. At least Bill (who I loathe in the books) I enjoy for his great unintentionally comedic lines.

 

[kdemers1221]

Yeah I was gonna say that Bill commanded her as her maker to stop. I think Sookie had good intentions but she forgot Jessica was a new vampire and not a human friend.

I liked the episode because it's starting to get into the real story line now... next weeks episode starts the books major plot.

Layfaette asking to be turned was great... i hope Eric did it. Overall, I'm pleased with the way the season is going.

 

[caitlin1593]

I liked the 2nd episode much better than the first. I was really dissapointed that the first showed no signs of having any storylines from the actual book but it looks like they are bringing the "party" in from the 2nd book which I thought was really interesting.
Even though it is so different, I'm beginning to love where things are going in the show, especially if Lafayette does become a vampire

Maybe they couldn't recsind her invitation because it was actually her house to.

Thats a good point... technically its Jessica's house too. It'll be interesting to see how Bill cleans up the mess considering that Jessica's dad doesn't seem like a nice guy at all.

I'm also loving how the season is turning out. Reading the books I was worried I would be disappointed but I'm not at all.

 

[Dreamergirl3]

I'm just not a huge fan of Sookie in the tv series. Which is a shame, because for the most part I love love love her in the books. While I feel she's pretty immature at times in the books, she seems immature and bratty ALL the time in the series...she's supposed to be smart, loyal, etc. and in the series I just don't see that (yet). Hopefully it'll start to turn around soon. Being so early in, I have hope.

Also, was anyone annoyed how she was comparing Jessica to a normal teenager? Yea, there are similarities...but she's a VAMPIRE. Jesus! At least give Bill credit, he's 100+ years older than you so I bet he knows what he's talking about lol.

i just watched the 1st episode tonight
