I downloaded all the episodes to date and watched them in the last week and a half. Awesome show.
|
I'm really no clearer to figuring out how they kill Maryanne. I'm guessing Spoiler: bill is willing to sacrifice sam, but still unclear how it is going to happen.
Bummer there is a two week wait for the last episode :( |
"Hey do you think Sam's ever turned into a dog, and then had sex with a lady dog?" - Jason Stackhouse
|
"Do you think Sam's ever turned into a chicken, then laid an egg?"
|
Jason's not the sharpest tool in the shed is he? :)

You know, at least when Angel got to be somewhat tiresome as a no-fun having do-gooder on Buffy and Angel, all the other characters would make fun of him for it. Nobody in True Blood seems to get how fucking dull Bill is. I mean Jason spent the season as a brainwashed Christian warrior and has morphed into a zombie killer armed to the teeth. Maryanne is a batshit crazy goddess of chaos. Eric flies now for some reason. Even Godric's clothes are so badass they couldn't be damaged by an explosion. Evan Rachel Wood's queen is like something from John Waters' wet dreams. Pretty much all the other townsfolk are having nonstop orgies. They are all a thousand times more interesting than Bill!
...actually, come to think of it, almost all the original main characters are just boring as fuck. Who cares about Sam at all? Or Tara and her boyfriend-with-the-worst-name-ever? Sookie and Bill have gotten so massively dull that on the street now I'm overhearing people joking about their "Sooooookie!" "Bill!" "Soooooookie!" dialogue. I predict that by season 4 every episode will be people killing each other with mystical chainsaws and drinking blood and having crazy bisexual orgies with utterly no plot. |
I like Jessica, her storyline with Hoyt has really been refreshing. I'd watch a show with just them, to be honest.
And the Jason seduction storyline was absolutely awesome. It was a fun way to deal with the fundies. If Eggs dies, the entire season will be totally worth it. |

OMG Eric can fly! He's officially the biggest badass ever. It was great having Jason Stackhouse back, he's a fun character.
I hope they kill Eggs off also. |

Oh, and to paraphrase: Quote:

ugh, Im glad Eggs is gone...though he didnt die like in the book, this will make for an interesting storyline next season if they continue it, it think somehow it will have a profound affect on Jason.
I have a tiny little beef with how they ended the Maryann line, They have made a big point out of portraying the fact that Sam has to have the animal to imprint on before he can change into it (in the books he could just see a picture, but they didnt mention that in the show), so how the heck did he change into the bull? My heart was just breaking for Hoyt and I have no clue what the hell Jessica was up to. Eggs is dead wooohooooo |
There was something poetic about MaryAnn's death. It kinda worked. I was worried it would be anticlimactic, but it was certainly visually arresting to see the white bull pierce her heart, only to have it revert to Sam holding her heart.
Regarding your beef (HA!), maybe Bill and Sam had a bull around as part of the plan. The best part of the entire series I've seen so far was Sam with his adopted parents. It was so quiet, painful and honest. |
Blech, what a mess of a season finale. Yes, the shots of Maryann with the bull were beautifully shot. But a whole season of slooooooooooowly getting around to Maryann's "wedding," filled with endless pointless orgies and black eyes, ends justlikethis with the lamest and most predictable switcheroo of all time.
Plus, they totally dropped the whole "Sookie has electric light powers" thing. What was that about? Then, they perfunctorily went about setting up season 3 as if they couldn't leave behind season 2 fast enough. And I really look forward to more dumbass soul-searching from Jason after killing Eggs, a la the second half of season one. On the other hand, I'm pretty sure I just want to watch Jessica and Eric and the Queen fuck with everybody else all the time. They're waaaay more fun than the rest of this show. I'd kill for an episode with 20 lines of dialogue that weren't directly tied to advancing the plot or expository. ...I realize I complain a lot about this show but it is so much more willing to do crazy shit than any other show on tv that I just want it to do it well. |
I'm just hoping Sam starts having awkward and confusing dreams about Bill.

Here is a good post finale, pre-season 3 interview with Alan I just love the last question and answer
Exclusive: 'True Blood' finale postmortem with Alan Ball! | Ausiello | EW.com Quote:
|
Easy to answer those questions just read the book.
|
you have to keep in mind, Alan is changing things up, just because you know what happens in the books, doesnt mean thats what happens in the show. Eggs died in a car wreck in the book, Lafayette was dead in book one, Maryann didnt do all that crap and certainly didnt die.....the books are a template, the show isnt canon
|
I'm really glad they kept Lafayette around.
|
Quote:
And I hope Jessica gets a larger role next season, she and Jason are the funniest characters. |
I'd watch a whole show just of Lafayette lol

"The God is coming, worship him bitches!!" - Lafayette

"It's times like these that this town needs a good man, and that man... is us." - Jason, talking to Andy

Fugly thats fantastic!!!!

Yes please!

:24--Gawd DAYUM, Sookie! |
I forgot how this show just LOVES cliffhangers. So, werewolfs, I know that we were told that we would have wolifies in this show, but I really figured Eric kidnapped Bill. I'm guessing that since the "King" of Mississippi is going to be in the show, that's where Bill is going to be most of the time. Wonder how the werewolf/vampire connection is in MI.
Was it just me or were they showing a lot of male ass in this ep? I'll put up with it if Jessica naked. |
Shit! I said I was not gonna be here!!
|
Dumbass, go download the eps off the net, should be easy to find on torrent sites. PM if you want an invite to some of the big ones.
|
I'd forgotten about how they cry blood. It was great seeing Jessica with her blood tears.
Looking forward to a great season. |
Only been able to watch the first 24 minutes of the episode in pieces, thanks to limited online resources, and spam-like torrents.
But so far, me likey. :) Eric ass? Check! Always a good start to the season. There's been a couple of audible squeals by me during this episode, oh boy, hot stuff. Can't wait to watch the rest. Once I get my hands on it. |

I cannot even begin to tell you how addicted I am to this show and I just started watching it within the last 2 months. I saw all of season 1 over a period of 4 weeks, then I had a season 2 marathon this past weekend. Watched all 12 episodes in 2 days. Every time one ended, I *HAD* to see the next one. And now I am able to watch season 3 as they air. My friend from work is recording them for me and I get them on DVD on Monday. I can hardly wait for the next new episode already!!! :hyper:
|
It's really tough going from a marathon to having to wait a week at a time.
|
yeah that's why I wait until they bunch up on the Tivo :)

Sookie doing the Bill impersonation was very funny.

It was strange. my friends and I always do that imitation, make fun of it. but they didn't find it as funny as I did. Oh well. I busted a gut at it, that counts to me :) |
Season 3 ep1 for me tonight can't wait.
|
Nazi Werewolves? Really? I have no idea what to say about that...

two hottest things from this season so far
erics full bare ass sam having erotic dreams about bill Dave often walks in the room and says "soooookah" so when she did i standing in the kitchen with jason I about fell off the couch laughing God I hate Tara, her character in the show is SO different from the books, I wish to hell she wouldnt make it out of season 3 |
Bill and Lorena sure do have kinky sex! (Pun totally intended ;))
|
That was def different, Im just really disappointed in Bill having sex with her. Sometimes I wonder what makes Alan want to deviate from the books with stuff like that lol
|
Probably the same reason I'll watch the TV show as a guilty pleasure but have no interest in reading the books :p
In this particular instance, though, I don't quite understand why he did that. I mean, I get that it was hateful angry sex, but, uh, why not just NOT have sex with her? Pretty sure that's a better way to get back at her. The scene in the motel with Tara and English Vampire (whatever his name is) had a frustrating production error. Looking out the window, it seemed like daylight, not streetlight, that was shining on him. We know it was supposed to be nighttime because it was dark when Tara opened the door, but it made onodrim and I do a double-take. Vampire mythology gripe: it doesn't make sense for there to be a magical barrier that prevents vampires from entering a human's home uninvited, yet they can glamour someone across that barrier and make that person invite them in. ---------- Post added at 08:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:06 AM ---------- Oh yeah, I'm totally down with killing off Tara and everyone related to her except Lafayette. Easily the most annoying characters on the show, and that's saying something! ---------- Post added at 08:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:09 AM ---------- Hmm, maybe you need to revisit the books? I just came across a bunch of people talking about how the scene happens in the books (implying, of course, that it does happen). As one person notes, "In the books he is supposedly compelled by his maker due to the nature of the blood bond between them." That's the only explanation onodrim and I could come up with for why he'd do that, but it really makes no sense because we already know that she released him. |
edit... I know what they are referencing now, and its FAR different than whats in the show...I wont say anymore for those that still might want to read them.
Lorena is only in the 3rd book for a few pages, a confrontation between her and Sookie towards the end, she wasnt in Dallas as per the 2nd True Blood season at all. |
This is a show that desperately needs to figure out what to do with characters who aren't involved in the A plot.
Tara is just miserable about something and doesn't do anything of importance or interest in any episode, just like season 2. Sam is lonely and trying to find out about his past, but doesn't really do anything interesting...just like season 2. Jason is torn up about having killed someone...just like with Eddie. Other than that, he does nothing but feel guilty. I've seen this particular movie before. Lafayette is sassy and is involved in the dangerous V trade. Just like season 1. And season 2. At least he's entertaining, though. Alan Ball needs to learn to either severely withdraw focus from unused characters (a la The Wire) or kill them off (a la every Joss Whedon show). Keeping them around for no reason is just boring, except for Lafayette cause he's fun. |
In my opinion thats his one main mistake, none of these characters were prominent in the book, well except for Sam, but he has completely changed Sam's family dynamic, in the books Sam was raised with his family and they were a good family, not whats being portrayed now.
I can understand expanding on characters since the books are all written in Sookie's point of view, but he's gone overboard. He turned Tara from a white chick that has a decent life owning a clothing boutique to the black whiny bitch that she is....Personally I think Lafayette needs more time lol |
It's so nice to see vampires finally acting like, well, vampires. I'm done with all the emo shit! :p
|
The end of episode 3 got me hard. It's official, I am also a necrophiliac ...
|
Just watched episode 8....hohh mama. I wanna watch it again. And again.. :D
|
FUCK!!
It's 7AM, I watched all episodes from last night!! I was only going to watch two episodes but something happened. I'm all caught up till episode 9 and I am regretting it seeing as I have a 12 hour workday today. SHIT MAN!! |
Ep 9 was so amazing. I can't wait to see what will happen next.
|
|
I'm also very curious as to the consequences for last night's episode.
|
Just caught up on the last 3 episodes... just WOW. Amazing. I must say that this season is really really good.
|
In truth, I haven't watched the show since they took a break on 4th of July weekend. I always looked at it as a guilty pleasure, like eating a whole chocolate cake at one time; I need to give my blood pressure a break.

I was going to ask if this season is worth the time, but just caught Cynthetiq's last comment, and, why not: I'm not watching anything else really. |
