this picspam of the latest ep of True Blood is just...guh.
Premium Cable: The Cursing Costs Extra
[NAFDA] A thread for the discussion of all original programming on HBO, Showtime, Starz and other premium channels.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
Oh my good heavens, Jason Stackhouse! I could not love Jason Stackhouse any more. He is the man. I found the Jason, Sam and Andy Fake God Dinner Theater to be a hoot and a half. And Terry getting to be highly functional if delusional and to protect his "special lady"? Made of Win. Interesting that Terry's love for Arlene was able to cut through the Mary Anne fog and affect his decision making.
Poor, poor Sam and Tara. They really have been going through shit since about . . . oh, the beginning of the show. Those are two characters in desperate need of good news.
And my poor Jessica and Hoyt. I thought it would end badly, but not like that. I don't think the worst will happen, but even if it doesnt, dude, it's going to be hard going get back from that. I still have hope for those two, though, because Hoyt Fortenberry is only slightly less awesome than the current incarnation of Jason Stackhouse.
I don't know how I feel about the developments with Sookie. I'll have to see how it plays out.
Finally, Mary Anne starts to earn her keep. Better late than never, I guess.
Yes. What you said.
Loved it.
Sookie shooting beams of light from her hand? WTF? That's probably the only thing that gave me pause.
Otherwise, kat I agree 100%. It really was an entertaining episode.
What kat said. Definitely.
Do we know who Bill is trying to see? Is that the same vamp who chewed everybody out about the fiasco in Dallas, or is it someone we haven't met yet?
Sookie shooting beams of light from her hand? WTF? That's probably the only thing that gave me pause.
Kinda loved Maryanne's rather gleeful response to being forcibly rebuffed there. I suspect she has her eyes set on another heart. Which also makes me fear that Maryanne will be defeated/destroyed by a Sookie ex machina.
Also, for some reason, Maryanne's "What are you!?" reminded me of Adam's "Interesting." from the season 4 Buffy finale.
Franken,
I saw the casting announcement for the queen, so I know who the actress is, but not anything about her role, etc.
I think that he said it was the Queen. . . or the guards said something about the Queen expecting him. I don't think it's the talking head pundit vampire.
No, I heard the reference to the queen, but since I missed the first season (on order right now), I wasn't sure if that was an official title for pundit vamp or not. Thanks.
I am intrigued by this Queen. Also by the fact that the guards said the Queen was expecting Bill. How did she know that Bill was on the way when he seemed to just think up the plan to go see her when he was talking to Sookie on Lafayette's porch? I don't understand why she would have been "expecting him". I mean, I doubt that Bill called her up on his iphone while he was super zooming out to wherever she lives. Maybe she could just sense that he was on the way?
I am still smiling at the Rambo music playing in the background as Jason made his speech about the war he'd been training for. Golden. Thanks, Newlins!
I suspect the Queen knows something about the maenad and the destruction the maenad has wrought. She probably was expecting him to come by and want more info/help.
