True Blood

[stray]

Man, that episode was intense.

[Azaroth]

I liked the redheaded vampire. Will watch again and attempt to get an idea of what's going on.

[lac]

Vampires heal overnight . Those two do their best to bring the comic relief.
Great episode overall.

It's kind of odd the other telepath disappeared in the middle of the episode, between Bill dragging him out after his maker bit him (and what was up with that reaction) and Bill showing up at the church. I thought for sure Bill's confrontation with Erik was leading to him giving Erik the other telepath as an offering to stay away from Sookie.

The Maryann storyline needs to end sooner than later, I fucking hate that smirky fucking actress. Yawn. I thought they were finally giving Tara and Eggs an out from that plot loop. Then again, I thought Tara was going to get an out by finding her mother's gift in the bushes. It's the zombie plotline that won't die.

[stray]

I was think the other telepath would end up falling into Bill's maker's hands (whatever her name is). She was intrigued by the taste of his blood.. maybe she'll find him now. I like Michelle Forbes.. Ensign Ro does her job well at playing bitches, and always has. She's the white Rosie Perez (OK, maybe not that bad). Godric is badass, but his need to reach out kind of seems like boredom. I can't tell if he's genuinely good. Like he's so fucking powerful he's just looking for a change of pace now. I would think that's what would happen if you always new you could destroy everyone in the room within seconds. Which probably Eric's problem with Sookie too.. He wants her because he's bored.

Also, Godric seems a little gay for Jason.

[Sky]

I don't see that at all. Erik wants Sookie because she's a goddamned telepath! She uncovered treachery right under his nose, that had to shake him.

And Godric, I like the way his character was presented, especially when he frames his existence: "I'm older than Christ." Great scene in the church exposing the reverend.

[Azaroth]

Okay. But someone fill me in on the redhead.

[Sky]

In regards to what? Her regenerating hymen?

[Azaroth]

That actually pissed me off, since it interfered with the hot hot sex.

Mostly what is her name, post pics, where does she live IRL, does she have any guard dogs, so on and so forth.

Yeah, that was a good scene.

Erik seems like he's extremely bored, man. That's what makes him so cool to me at least. I don't think he cares about the telepathic thing other than it's different. Just like he thought it was worth getting people to go out hunting for a bull headed monster in the woods.. simply because it's intriguing and he never heard of it before. Or how he wanted that fangbanger to scream when he was feeding on her. I could be wrong, of course.

edit: that said, Sookie llikes him now after seeing him with Godric. Too bad for Bill.

[sidereal]

Godric's whole demeanor has "I'm about to be killed off" written all over it.  Like he's already at peace with the whole universe.

[Nerf]

It looked like a bunch of silver and shit, maybe some wood?  I don't think it's going to kill all of them.

Also, UV, does it even hurt vampires in the trueblood universe?  You think someone at the church of the sun would have brought a fucking flashlight if it did.

[sidereal]

You despoilered!

I thought I remembered Pastor Whatshisname showing off some UV gear in his wacko armory.

But I could be confusing it with Underworld.

[stray]

On a sidenote, the best thing about this show is the cast. Down to the smallest parts. Everyone just fits.. They really play their parts well, even the fuckheads. That pastor is great, whoever he is.

[Nerf]

I don't remember any UV gear.  And its monday, in an 11 page thread.  Spoilers should be for people talking about shit from the books etc.

[stray]

There was something that wowed Jason when he was demo'ing stuff, but I don't remember if it was UV or not either. There was wood and silver, but I think something else unique.

[Viin]

RPG?

[gryeyes]

Great episode, Godric will die in the next few episodes but i doubt a bomb kills him. He was going to allow himself to be killed at the church and only intervened when it became apparent many humans were going to die. Hes going to take one for the team somehow.

[Tale]

Itching for some Vampire vs Maryann combat.

[lac]

Kablamo, I suppose the copper coloured bullets are supposed to be wood.

[Sky]

You despoilered!

We should only really need spoilers for actual spoilers, stuff from the books. You shouldn't be reading this thread before you've seen the latest episode!

[sidereal]

Except in the last episode, Erik threatened him unambiguously to never use V again.

Actually, maybe that's a hint.  Maybe they plan to adulterate the V somehow so users get fucked up, and he's warning Jason away from it.

[gryeyes]

Eric wont fuck with Jason after Godric gave him a pass. Id imagine Lafayette is allowed to sell so they can track who is purchasing it, in the same manner the police would.

[Evil Elvis]

Spiking the V was my guess, too.

[Tale]

Or maybe, since Jason does everything he's told not to do, he's using reverse psychology and Mr Bloodworth is right?

Uh, yeah, you should know that smile by now. There is only one thing more powerful to hold over sookie then bills love, that's family.

[gryeyes]

Intense, so utterly hammy yet so very good.

[stray]

i didn't think it was hammy at all. skarsgard has turned out to be a pretty versatile actor (no surprise though really, if you've ever seen his dad.. and you probably have)

[Tale]

Godric Baggins.

Did anyone else think that?

[Morfiend]

Godric Baggins.

Did anyone else think that?

Holy crap the blue flame was badly done. Maybe they should of had their intern throw in a lens flare also.

[Tarami]

Am I the only one who thinks this series has been turning into an inconsistent, incomprehensible mess since, well, start of season 2? When everyone's special, no one is. This is taking itself far, far too seriously to be such all-but-the-kitchensink schlock. From what a friend is telling me about the books, that stuff is down to earth compared to the things that fly on the show.

[Rasix]

They have some inconsistently bad special effects at times.  One of the worst things was the picture of gran, Sookie, and Tara together.  One of the worst photoshops I've ever seen.  Gran looked like she was drawn in with crayon.  And they KEPT SHOWING IT.   Why would you parade around something that horribly fake looking. I bet the actors had to suppress giggles when working with that prop.

I currently live in an  apartment with two design school students, my girlfriend and one other girl. The "gran photoshop" has been mocked to no end in our place.

[stray]

Yeah, I thought the same thing about the gran pic.

Tarami, I disagree.. I think this 2nd season is better than the first.

Also, Michelle Forbes' character keeps getting better.
