True Blood Season 3

[QUOTE=Bacchus;187036]Another great episode. With most shows, I often think to myself, "I could write this" but that is not the case with True Blood. Amazing acting and great scripts. So, does Sookie get with another Vamp (i.e. Eric) or a werewolf because of Bill's betrayal? (even though he is doing it to save her...)[/QUOTE] Well I know the basics of what happens in the books but they have deviated enough from the series that it may not turn out the same way, so I'm not sure. The only thing bothering me with this season is that there are really way too many story lines and big characters. I think they have been able to handle it better in the previous seasons because a lot of the characters were going in similar directions or at least interacted with each other while on their own journey, but they just seem to be moving further and further apart with each episode. For me it's become more noticeable this season especially when some people that I enjoy get a short scene or two (Pam, Jessica, Hoyt...even Sookie didn't get that much screen time). Hopefully they can kind of tie some stories together because I think way too much time is being spent on Arlene's pregnancy that could be better used elsewhere, like on Jessica dealing with being alone as a new vamp and her relationship with Hoyt. Also, did anyone else think Alcide and Sookie's "plan" was [I]horrible[/I]? Let me dress ******, cozy up to ***** were's, hope the ******** guy is involved with Bill's kidnapping. Then while he is trying to have sex with me I might be able to read his mind and hopefully he will tell me really important information! I will escape unharmed by screaming and starting a fight in a were-bar!. Yeah, perfect plan. Why didn't they just have Alcide talk to guys/ask questions then have Sookie sit safely in a corner and try to read their minds to see if they knew anything/were telling the truth? Seems much safer and smarter to me!

[QUOTE=Stacee_Danielle;187381]I am down, I get Were-fever from Alcide, he is sexy! Ita, I just wannt ***** slap her now...really really hard. On a side note, does Franklin remind anyone else of a scrawny Mr. Bean (Rowan Atkinson)?[/QUOTE] Looks like we have this to look forward to with Alcide :) [url=http://vevmo.com/vbimghost.php?do=displayimg&imgid=6938][img]http://vevmo.com/imagehosting/15244c2b883015107.jpg[/img][/url] I'm hoping the storyline with Franklin will make Tara more tolerable and give her something to do besides sulk about her horrible life. I can see the resemblance to Rowan Atkinson especially since he's older now but I'll always see Forney from [I]Where the Heart Is[/I] when I look at him.

Worst part of last night, when Alcide says "Well, at least let me go put on a shirt." Whaaaat?! Why would you want to do that? Worst. Idea. Ever. Also, I am getting bored with Sam's family something different needs to happen besides them being poor and creepy. Sam's mother has yet to shift so hopefully there is an interesting reason for that. Franklin is a psycho and I kind of love it. Need more Jessica please! Luckily there was quite a bit of Eric to even it out. He even had the best line of the night with "Let's go RuPaul." :D

[QUOTE=Bacchus;192112]This was the best episode in awhile. Especially Eric the Viking and Sookie "Tesla" Stackhouse. Good stuff.[/QUOTE] Really? Maybe I will have to watch it again but I really wasn't feeling this episode. Why is Jessica only a waitress at freaking Merlottes this season? They are seriously underusing her. And I love Lafayette and Jesus is totally dreamy but do we really have time for another love interest this season and Jason too? I think my problem with this season is that I like all of the subplots but there are just so many that the show feels choppy and like nothing gets accomplished with each episode. I wish they had picked half of them and saved the others for next season. Worst part of the episode, when Franklin said he was going to make Tara a vamp I screamed "NOOOOOOO!!" because unless they make some major changes in her character it means I will have to do with her annoying butt for eternity! Plus, once she is a vamp she will get super cocky which would be the worst thing to mix with her wallowing in self pity and shivering from fear that we are treated to now. Ugh, no thank you Franklin but you can keep being your crazy *** self because that is pretty fun! Best parts, Tara getting tackled by ****** and I guess shirtless Alcide.

[QUOTE=Stacee_Danielle;192165]you guess?!?!? just you guess?!?! He is friggin HOT, all rugged and manly like...I'd hit that, LMAO.[/QUOTE] Oh don't get me wrong, I [B]LOVE[/B] Alcide, but I was just kind of sad that I couldn't think of any real story plot that made me excited. It's like they need to put in shirtless Jason and Alcide to distract us from some lameness plot wise. :( I still love this campy, fun mess but I just wasn't feeling this week. Hopefully all these different stories will come together soon with a decent payoff. I just don't want another Maryanne situation where things last for too long and Sam's family story in particular is hitting that point. Just get to it already! It's the same thing with them every week without any movement.

[QUOTE=Stacee_Danielle;194951]So, B...Best buddy best pal...think you can get me a good screen shot of Alcide when he was naked? I would love you forver and ever...well not that I don't already but you know what I mean :D[/QUOTE] Check your PM's! ;)

Agreed! I was happy with all of those developments! Some trimming down was necessary and I think they made some good moves last night. Plus, I'll always love a good and bloody episode though that Sookie dream sequence was a little odd and I'm not quite sure what to make of it yet but it definitely has me intrigued.

I just got to watch the last episode and I loved it! It started off a little slow but the last 15mins really made up for it! We finally got some Jessica and Hoyt. The scene between Eric and Pam where he basically told Pam she is ready to be a new mommy was probably the best of the night. How amazing has Dennis O'Hare (Russell Edgington) been this season though? He only got a few scenes last night but I think he stole the show. First crying over Talbot goo, then the crystal urn (fabulous!) and that final scene? Delicious! "And now for the weather. Tiffany?" Haha, he had me rolling. Is it very bad of me that I thought Tommy was going be caught by Sam doing the nasty and making a ruckus with his mother? I was really convinced they were going to go there and make Sam's family even more twisted. Thank god they didn't! I'm really over Crystal by the way. We have had very little indication of what she is for me to care at all about her and her flip flopping. Also, no Alcide this week? BOOOO!

So I just saw the new True Blood cover for Rolling Stone and OMG! I think I just fell out. Here is a link because I don't even know if I can post it here. [url=http://www.dlisted.com/node/38467]Needs Less Sookeh | Dlisted[/url]

Or Eric, Pam/Jessica and Alcide! :D So is the show basically doing season 1=book 1, season 2=book 2 and so on with little changes here and there? I've heard the books are pretty decent and easy reads too. I'll probably start them once the season is done.
