True Blood
Aug. 24th, 2009 01:52 pmProbably the weakest episode of the season so far for me, but still enjoyable.
In no particular order:
1. The opening scene was beautifully shot. Just lovely!Shirtless Eric didn't hurt either *g*
2. The more people keep saying they don't like Sookie, the more I like her. I'm stubborn like that.
3. Jason, Sam and Andy are made of win!
4. "Smite me, motherf***er!" :D
5. Sam Butt! Butt of Sam! o_O
6. Why was the episode so short this week?
7. I actually quite liked Bill this week. He reminded me more of S1 Bill. And didn't keep shouting "Suuuukkkyyyy" every five minutes.
8. Lafayette is made of win! Oh, how I love me some Lafayette.
9. Nooo, Jessica! Don't do it! Hoyt will neve forgive you. (and I actually quite like Maxine - in a 'love to hate' kind of way)
10. I've enjoyed the Maryanne storyline, but will be glad to see the back of it now.
11. Tara! It's good to have you back.
12. What's up with Sookie? That was definitely different.
13. Jason has been awesome this season! Definite character progression there.
14. Still not liking the blood tears...although they do look rather pretty on Eric. *is shallow*
15. So we're about to meet the Queen...
Roll on next week! :D

Sam needs to wear that apron more often...
I like Sookie and Bill and I don't care who knows it. And Bill visiting the Queen seemed different, maybe that's the real Bill.
Is it Sunday yet?

I've always had a soft spot for Jason (possibly because I remember RK from 'Home and Away' years ago), but his character has really progressed this season. I loved the whole 'Smite me' scene. Brilliant! :D

I agree! I've never seen such horror! *g*
Sam needs to wear that apron more often...
He really, really does.

Right there with you. I have to say I preferred S1 Bill, though, but I still like him (other than when he's shouting 'Sookie' or 'Sookie is mine' - that has really started to grate on me this season). And you're right, he did seem different. Hmm...
I obviously enjoyed this episode more than I thought I had. :D

Date: 2009-08-24 02:28 pm (UTC)I know what you mean. I definitely like book Sookie better than the TV version, but I'm growing to like her more and more as the series progresses. It just annoys me how much some people seem to hate her - which as I said in my post, only makes me like her more. It reminds me of how some people felt about Buffy...

I think that Sam has found the perfect outfit. ;- )
I must confess that I don't like Sookie much but I like her when she is with Tara.
Lafayette rocked as usual. I have a soft spot for Andy now, but I love Terry too. His feelings for his lady were stronger than Maryanne's power.

I can understand why people find Sookie annoying, but I'm liking her more and more as the season progresses.
I *love* Lafayette! I'm so glad they decided to keep him around this season.
To be honest, I like most of the supporting cast. And I think Jessica, in particular, has been a wonderful addition to the cast.
