A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Oh, thank god. I think I actually clapped my hands over my eyes and shrieked, WOMAN, NO!!!!

"We have trust issues." Mylar

But it just seemed so . . . right for her, you know? Was it cheestastic and hella embarassing? Oh, heavens yes! But I can totally see her doing it. And I can see Bill going along with it because he's kind of a ginormous dork - at least as he's been portrayed on the show, don't know about the book. So while it was slightly watch from the hall, I was also totally feeling that it probably would happen just. like. that. given the two people (or one person/one vamp) in question.

and he's really old fashioned, so it probably appealed to the romantic in him.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

What anyone wholly annoyed by the Flowing Renn Garb of Potential Ruptured Hyman Flowing in the cheeTAStic run to Bill -- who, dude, could have scooped her up a lot sooner?

I GET Sookie, wanting to wear white for her vampiric defloration -- she is a traditionalist and a romantic. But that was some fluffy ass shit she was scooting along in.

Here's the thing...I thought it was a dream, so I was enjoying the whole setup and then we get to the final scene and I'm like: "damn. this all wasn't a dream? wow."

Now tagless for your comfort.

The dress was over the top.

I'm so freakin' OVER Jason's sexcapades.

Lovin' Lafayette. HE'S like water for chocolate.

Sam & Tara are hot. But he's a big, fat hypocrit with his, "I don't want any strings, I want something real in my life." Sweetie, Real comes with LOTS of strings. Still, Tara was way less annoying.

Vampire sex is still hot.

That looks like no pecan pie I've ever seen. And that's a lot of pie for one tiny girl.

Note to Bill: Buy a bed.

Note to preview folks: If you're going to show stuff that's two or three episodes ahead, no matter how cool it looks, you're made of fail. I've been watching Sam break that pool cue a couple of times and it still hasn't happened.

Is it obvious to everyone what Uncle Bartlett did?

bonny, I'm assuming he speculation, not spoiler molested Sookie.

Compassionately intolerant

Hm. Could be. Could be.

And in a weird, all about me, way I can see how that would fit because one of the 'benefits' of living with a huge amount of abuse as a kid is that I am hypersensitive to how people feel. In fact, I've said a thousand times, "I can hear how people feel."

It would be interesting if that is where her power came from ?

I truly have to read the books because I can't imagine what long-term role Uncle Bennett will play.

Even if this speculation is true, then the question remains. What does that mean for our heroes?

eta: On second thought, it seems obvious...duh...that all he is there for is to make wider the split between Sookie and Jason.


Ash - Oct 19, 2008 2:39:53 pm PDT #2097 of 7329

That was my first suspicion, but they could do something unexpected. Sookie and Jason seem to be growing farther apart either way.

I couldn't help myself... I started reading the book. So far I've managed to stop reading about where the show is, but I don't know how long that's gonna last.
