did anybody watch Entourage? that's the most that show has made me laugh in i don't know how long.
What you did to me was unbelievable, Connor. But then I got stuck in a hell dimension by my girlfriend one time for a hundred years, so three months under the ocean actually gave me perspective. Kind of a M.C. Escher perspective, but I did get time to think.

I really liked this True Blood, and not at all grudgingly like before. The dialog was better, and I was getting into the characters and the story.
Did Lafayette say "Tip your waitress" when he left that table? Whatever it was, it was a great line. Also Sookie listening to Tara's mind and hearing "Lalalalala"
When she was telling Sam what she heard in his mind, I kind of expected her to say "Sometimes I heard words, but other times it's like I hear this plaintive yipping sound..."
(spoiler text even though I don't really know what's going to happen)
I liked Bill. "I don't own a refrigerator, sorry."

Not yet, but this makes me happy.

Yes, he did. And it was hilarious.
of course, that whole scene was unnecessary. Why didn't the waitress just quietly get rid of the plate. She was so reluctant to tell Lafayette what happened, so why did she?

I wondered that too. On the other hand, if she doesn't like Lafayette, that might be the kind of passive aggressive thing she would do. I really don't get her character. I need to watch again.

her "oh fudge" really did seem sincere. I wonder if the customers put her up to it and she didn't know how to handle it. They said "go tell him the burger has AIDS" and she couldn't figure out how to make her customer happy and not piss off Lafayette.

I could believe that. Everyone has different ways of handling (or not) difficult customers.

I think she is just 'aw shucks', socially inept. She sincerely didn't want to hurt Lafayette but didn't know how to not tell the truth.

Mmmm. I think Arlene doesn't have a lot of imagination, and deeply prejuducial streak, and like to see shit happen, yet doesn't ever want to start shit herself.
She's not all bad, but she's not a good one, either.
Lafayette's taking off his earring was pretty hilarious.

Trueblood.
Whoa! I suppose the bite was inevitable but I didn't expect it quite so soon.
The friend I watch the show with was really moved by the scene with Sookie eating Gran's pie. I'm not sure why, but it made me a bit queasy. Transubstantiation Pie. ew.
The entire episode was so much slower than the previous ones...not so many questions/answers but whooboy, packed a punch.
In the books, can vampires sense a shapeshifter ? My curiosity was piqued by Bill's seeming comfort with the dog who is not Sam, I don't think .
Details I want to see fleshed out next week: What's up with Uncle Wheels, what's up with the cut screen and, who was it strangling Sookie. Was that her dream or Bill's?
