Since you subscribe to HBO and could have watched or recorded it legally would it really be such a terrible thing to just bittorrent it?

Nazi werewolves vs Viking vampires vs mellow inter-specie relationship drama. The first two episodes of this season are laying an interesting foundation.
They're juggling a lot of sub-plots right now. My thoughts without getting into spoilers: Sam's almost feels like it should be a spin-off mini or a webisode or something since it seems the least connect to anyone else's plot threads. The Tara and Lafayette stuff of course is only worth it because Nelsan Ellis continues to be the best actor on the show. Bill's plot felt like it was taking too long to get anywhere in this episode. I think Jason, Andy, and Hoyt all got better use in the first episode, but they're all good characters so even when they aren't at their best, it's not too bad. Jessica's plot feels like something that's going to end up dragging out. Terry and Arlene are hilarious as always and get used just enough to lighten the mood but not get worn out. Eric manages to make Sookie's plot watchable.

It's hard to believe that Ellis is a former Marine.

Are you sure about that? He went to Julliard after high school and then went into acting I believe.

Yeah, I'm just watching out of habit now. Much more interested in the other show I dvr, Deadliest Catch. That show is so intense right now (I come from a line of lobstermen back to the revolution at least).

Yeah, considering the festering turd of Herculean proportions that was the second half of last season, I'm perplexed that someone can think this is worse.

Nazi werewolves are better than the ridiculously dragged-out maenad plotline. I thought that would never end, so annoying.

The Maened plot also had an orgy an plenty of sex in general. There's been very little of that going around lately. At least I admit why I watch this show. The last couple of episodes have just been dull in general, completely unrelated to the lack of sex though.

There's been some cool stuff happening. All a bit disjointed. Franklin is just killing it. He's the best insane vampire I've seen.
The only part of the last episode I really didn't care for was the part where Sookie and Hunky The Werewolf were just standing there explaining everything during the initiation. I just wanted to yell, "YES, I CAN SEE THAT. SHUT UP AND POSSIBLY RUN." Sookie is just has absolutely no survival instinct at all.
I could use less Mickens family shit and less Jason Stackhouse. That stuff is just going nowhere. Jason without a naked female is just useless.

Franklin is pretty much the only part of this season I've liked so far, and even his parts are dragging on. Everything is moving too slowly, and there's not enough sex to mask that this time. They clearly weren't watching Spartacus and taking notes

I really liked the last episode. I felt that it was going back towards the very dark first few episodes. Some stuff was stupid, like the explaining the werewolf ceremony, but overall I really enjoyed it.
They should just cut the whole Sam family plotline.

I'm definitely liking this season, but pretty much am in agreement with Rasix. Franklin is absolutely fantastic in a Serial Killer type way. Jason and Andy really started off awesome, but is falling flat right now as is the Mickens storyline. Randomly enough, Bill's storyline is probably the best of the season for me - the King of Mississippi and everything surrounding it is going all sorts of fun places.

I think someone said it best as "the entire Sam plot should be a webisode or something completely off air".

As usual I lose interest anytime Tara is onscreen but other than that I'm really digging this season. Eric is really growing on me as a character as is Pam.

Sam and Tara are boring as heck. Jason is just dicking around doing nothing at all. Bill is caught in a particulary boring holier than thou conundrum and Sookie is exactly the same as ever.
Jason needs to start fucking again, Sam and Tara can die asap... just leave it on Layfaette and Eric until Sookie and Bill harden the fuck up again.

Tara isn't boring so much as she grates on me. The actress is good but the character is annoying. She reminds me of a coworker that I will literally go out of my way to avoid. He's male but other than that they could be the same person. I like Sam as a character but feel like there is wasted potential with him. I'm hoping something will happen to make his character more interesting. His redneck family, sadly, is not it. From what I hear Jason has a major plotline coming that I won't spoil. If it's done well I think he'll get alot more interesting.

Sookie has a nice body. Someone had to say it. Also, when she mocked bills " Sookie" that was gold.

Since they don't want to cut her, nearly as boring is a good thing. It's still a step up from where we were last season with that eggs guy and having had to endure that story arc I'm quite happy with the lunatic vampire twist. It doesn't seem to serve any other purpose than to keep Tara in the show so why not go overboard with some dark humour?

Loved the latest episode. The dramatic part is actually getting interesting, and the comedy side bits were funny as hell. REALLY need to see Jessica naked though. Like soon.
