Very much so. I'm ashamed to admit how much I enjoyed all that crazy.

I crossed some kind of threshold with this show a while back - I don't care about any of the characters, I'm not invested in the plot going any particular way, but I do want to find out what happens next.

I laughed my ass off at Jessica's gleeful "I KNEW it!" when Pam and Tara started snogging. It's the little thing like that which keep me hanging on.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Lafayette read the voyeur ghosts in Sookie's room.

Did he get much else to do, or get significant arcs? I think he's the only one there I like from guggle to zatch, so I'm sure there's something I'm not thinking of, and I'd like to be able to call it to mind.

The thing with Jesus's father was this season, wasn't it? I guess that was what the bleach in the gumbo incident and so forth was building to. I can't remember that that all made a lot of sense, though. And he talked to the Iraqi ghost lady for Terry.

For a second there I thought he'd laced the margaritas with something last night, but I guess not.

I so don't give a damn about Billith.

Seriously. I couldn't work out what--like uppers or downers or poison or roofies...just, it seemed weird to just give out good drinks. I liked his attitude, and I felt relieved to see it on display, but...what was that for?

And he talked to the Iraqi ghost lady for Terry.

Speaking of "what was that for?" -- to a relatively recent viewer, that made little sense or impact.

Yeah, that whole storyline was pretty pointless. I guess they just wanted to feature Terry and never really figured out what they were doing beyond that. Which is also what they mostly do with Lafayette - they know everyone likes the character so they want him in scenes, but don't seem to know what to have him do.

And, Glam, me neither. I was kind of interested when I thought Bill was true dead, because that would have been an unexpected move, but no.
