Since it's HBO, this would be the place.

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

and that's OK right? I laugh when I'm supposed to laugh. I cry when I'm supposed to cry. It's a familiar fuzzy blanket of a show.

Compassionately intolerant
I feel the same way, Laga.

Well, that was one of the better True Blood's I've seen in a while. Terry's funeral was touching and the crosscutting to the rescue of the vamps was nicely done.
This season seems really diffuse even compared to usual (and more half-assed) but I liked this episode. Granted, I did miss a bunch of mid-season shows due to the involuntary relocation (I don't know where Rutger Hauer went, for instance) so it may have been a better or worse episode than I saw it as.
