I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

ITA, tiggy! We might need to keep Bill around so Pam can complain about him messing up her hair. Without other storylines taking up screentime, I'm betting the Lafayette and Jesus witchery could be a lot more fun.

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

no Bill allowed! i'd stake him myself if it were possible. i really didn't like the character in the book, but they've managed to make him even MORE unlikeable.

Oh, if Pam stakes him and then occasionally reminisces about staking him, I think I'd be satisfied.

How is that possible?

not sure, le nub. Alan Ball has a special talent.

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

So can someone explain to me as observers and readers what we are supposed to believe about Bill?

1) he is a pretty solid rat-bastard. This is established.

2) did he really feel remorse over his behavior with his maker?

3) if he did, then what explains his involvement with Sookie?

I mean, does he regret rampages, but still likes power? I get gray, but Eric seems gray to me and who has motivations I at least understand. Pam, too. Bill's are incredibly puzzling to me.

Maybe Sophie-Anne likes Bill so much because he's as batshit crazy as she is?

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

is she crazy though? From the TV series, I'm not ready to conclude that.

"Oh no! Has falling sky liquid once again caused you the sadness?" -Starfire

I would be happy with a Pam/Eric/Lafayette show, but I'd be happier if Jessica and Hoyt were part of that show too!

Now that the season is over, I decided to continue on with the books. I finished Club Dead last night and there are two things I NEED to see. 1) Bubba. (preferably played by Bruce Campbell) and 2) Sookie and Tara's "Love is a Battlefied" dance. That was a hoot in the book!

oh, yes! Jessica and Hoyt can definitely come to the spin-off!

unfortunately, AB has said no Bubba. can't really blame him for that. it would probably be a bit too cheesy onscreen.
