That's good, but Esther's stupidity is KILLING ME. First, she goes to the fucking house (like a ponytail is going to fool any damned body) and doesn't know that if she calls social services for her sister that won't let her in the door that the kids are going to be removed . She's been warned about her sister.

I agree, but who the hell is Rex to get on her about it when he could have just as easily exposed them by going to see his father?

True, but I would think that Rex took precautions instead of standing on the porch for several minutes, and then sitting in the car in front of the house making a phone call.
Also, he hadn't seen his father in 15 years and they theoretically don't know that Rex is in LA, so they wouldn't be watching him. His father didn't exactly strike me as being on the grid.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Woo! That is excellent news.

Seems like bold words, but I guess they're basing it on the extremely vocal and appreciative fandom that came with the first season.

Even if they aren't able to follow through for ratings reasons or whatever, I like that that is the attitude going in.

Oh, me too, absolutely.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Okay, so forgive me for having a cynical view of love, but has it occurred to Sookie that Eric may not really "love" her, but that he is attracted to her elven blood and the way she smells? I don't buy, as depicted on screen, their "love affair." I might buy it from her perspective (but not really). I definitely don't buy it from his.
He doesn't have a memory, so does he know what love is?
Am I just a grump?
