We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so very pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.

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.

What I love is that he's self-aware enough to know that he's dumb as a sack of hammers.

That's probably one of my favorite things about S2 Jason.

When we watched S2 last week, we got REALLY REALLY bored with the Marianne plotline. It should have been the B arc. Of course, this is coming from someone who would rather watch the Eric, Pam, and Lafayette show (with guest appearances by Jessica and Hoyt), then anything to do with Bill and Sookie.

Art Crawl!!!

I agree: the Marianne plotline moved way too slowly.

Does anyone know if there will be an itunes Season Pass for S3 True Blood? We don't have HBO, but I would really like to watch it in real time.

I want to see Jilli's version of True Blood. Really Bill and Sookie are the least interesting part of the show, and I am sick of Sookie constantly needing to be saved.

We have finished through ep 5, and I am not feeling the Jason love yet.

It takes a good part of the season, but it's worth it.

Rumor on next season is that Pam is a lot more prominent.

I really hated hating the Marianne storyline, because I adore Michelle Forbes (who seems to be turning into Barbara Hershey as she gets older), but even she couldn't save it.

I will sit in the corner with sj and Jilli. Although I did read that initially as Sookie always needing to be "shaved" and thought, huh, Anna Paquin is really not all that hairy. Maybe she means shaved away or her part needs to be shaved down and then I looked again and realized that reading comprehension is a good thing. But I digress. I would happily watch the Amazing Advnetures of Eric and Pam, and their Pet Human, Lafayette the Wonderful. Chow can show up occasionally, and Terry and Arlene can get jobs at Fangtasia and bring the teacup humans along with them.

I'm quite pleased that Bill and Sookie will spend a good chunk, if not all, of this coming season separated. I can take each of them separately much better than I can take them together.

We had to pause the Blu-Ray at that point because I completely lost it with giggling.

I have a complete lack of surprise at this.

The season finale of US of Tara was excellent. I definitely did not see that twist coming.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I loved the ending of USoT. I can't wait to find out more of the story. I think her parents need to be slapped.
