I have two...TWO...episodes of True Blood to watch saved to my DVR. Do you believe it? The only answer for this is I'm stoned all the time from my pain pills (surgery last week) and it is keeping me calm. If I can make it through to this coming Sunday....OMG....I'll have three back to back epi's to watch. You all must be so jealous. Bwahahaha.

Don't you know it.

Frances - glad to see you back posting!!!

I just read this thread for the first time. Never in my life did I think I would like a show called "True Blood" about vampires but there has been such a buzz about it I started watching, with episode 1 last night. I loved it! I watched it with my husband, and like everyone else was shocked by the graphic sex scene (S and M) and embarrassed but I can deal with that! Can't wait to watch episode 2.

So, you guys got me all into this show and I watched it in it's entirety and nobody wants to discuss it? What is up with the social worker with the beautiful house? Is she a vampire or a shape changer? I can't believe it is over till next summer. I am still waiting for Big Love to start again. I love that show, and it will be even more interesting now to me with all the scandal surrounding the Mormon Church and Prop 8. (See if I can sneak that in )

No, I thought it was Sam for most of the time. After I realized it wasn't him I was clueless.

no more true blood....till next year

Great finale, I agree with you Frances, I don't want Lafayette to be dead, I hope he's not. Maybe he'll come back next year as a vampire.

No clue about that social worker, she seems fishy and her connection to Sam, and that weird vibrating thing she did on the chair in front of the pig? Maybe she has something to do with Sam being a shape shifter. My First thought was she fed off her wards energy or uses them for something and then maybe turns them into an animal. I kept waiting for the Pig to transform into something.

The Killer, I thought it was Terry I thought he was the face on the police fax, but it was a quick flash so It could have been Rene's face. Too Bad I liked him until he went all psycho.

And yes Moody, it would be interesting about the vampire marriage act story line and prop 8 tie in, but I don't think they will delve into it too much, it was probably just a homage to the proposition and what the writers stance on it was. But I think the show does have an underlying theme of discrimination, just like the X-men Movies (not to get too geeky on anyone) but there's a central theme in those movies as well about humans fearing others that are different from them and discriminating against them through politics and other ways. But in the True Blood show they have made the church the prominent bigot towards those who are different which is more similar to Prop 8.

Now that my husband is home (laid off) and I got him hooked on True Blood he is bugging me right now to watch another episode. Sheesh, men! I'm off to make some popcorn and we are taking a break from job hunting.

I appreciate that they start new series off with a good sex scene. This way there is a chance our partners will watch with us! Don't let him tie you up Frances.

Frances/Moody - Funny!!

Don't let her try and play innocent ndd, Frances can be very, very naughty.

A new villain is coming to True Blood’s blood-loving, fictional Louisiana town of Bon Temps, and the vampires are not happy campers.

“There's a new supernatural creature in town, one I've never seen on TV,” says a source on the set of the HBO series. “Even vampires are scared of this thing. We'll be seeing a lot more of Eric (Alexander Skarsgård) this year. Romance is in the air for most of our main characters, but as always with our show, nothing is ever what it seems.”

Drama also ensues when Sookie Stackhouse (Anna Paquin) and Bill Compton (Stephen Moyer) take a business trip out of Bon Temps and find themselves in the middle of some sticky vampire politics, according to our source.

Want more scoop? OK, the dead person in the car is...


Just kidding. The source can’t tell us that! But we were told that episode five is being shot now, and 12 episodes are planned to start airing in either late June or early July. Also, there are a few new exciting actors on the show, including Valerie Cruz (Dexter), Anna Camp (Cashmere Mafia) and Ashley Jones (The Bold and the Beautiful). They join the previously confirmed Michelle Forbes, Mehcad Brooks and Deborah Ann Woll.

A few more surprises are set for down the line, but they're surprises—'nuff said.
