So many particulars. So many questions.
ah, wiki is full of lies again then.
Really don't get why people don't watch shit online more. No ads, and the latest episodes. fewls.
I've just spent 3 nights watching and getting hooked on this series
But did miss something where this was explained or are you just one of those obsessives on the internet who knows weird shit

thats about the size of it. Looked at some sites about the books True Blood is based on.
Oh good, because I liked the idea of the series finishing and and me being the non the wiser - as opposed to the series finishing and me being just an idiot
good series would have voted for Loved it but the poll appears to be closed
on a technical front...it appeared to me...that the first series was in fact two serieses amalgamned into one...the lighting, make up, camera anglesization changed...quite dramatically...or have I seen two series when yooz have seen one?

Can't say I noticed Bosky-Looked pretty consistent from a technical side to me. But then I was pretty much swilling beer and willing sookie to take her top off, so I might have missed something.

To the Bat-poles!
Haven't FX got it first?

Love it. Watched it after broadcast in the states, only finished recently. Great stuff, nice and dark, plenty of nudity.

Apparently it got the highest ratings for any HBO show since sopranos, stateside.

I liked this as I said on the other thread, there are some wicked peripheral characters- loving Jason and Lafayette and the various barflies.
Tara's and Jason's paths held me transfixed - just fantastic stuff- Tara and her mom? Jason and Amy? Oof.
Their stories probably interested more than Bill and Sookie, who got a little blah in comparison with the progression of Tara / Jason or even Sam.
Ace credits too.

I liked Sam a lot, but he's a little dumb. I know he likes being a collie, but when he was rescuing Sookie all the times she was in trouble he should have turned into a rottweiler or an akita. Neither of those dogs would have been as easy to take out with a shovel.
Or if he isn't restricted to dogs, which I don't think he is, he should have become a big bear or a lion.
That occurred to me too as he ran after Sookie removing his clothes as he went!
Anyway, surely he would have been better off as a grown man with gun!
Also,
You're a manimal- why the fuck would you restrict yourself to a dog?!
Why wouldnt you have had the imagination to go find and try out some other animals?!

Throughout the season, the 'tension' over which man could best protect Slightly Simple Sookie was so predictable.
Therefore I loved the subversion of the cliche, the suitors both fail and Sookie shows some spade skills.

So, you'll be eating them words when you said, ages ago, that it sounds like sub-buffy and would be crap then?
lol. Salt for your fail-hat madam?
Yeah yeah! Whatevs! Gloat while you can! Anyway I blame you for not selling it right.
I did a mea culpa on your True Blood vs Being Human thread.
And and and, its certainly not perfect- Bill isnt close to being gnarled and sexy enough.
There are half a dozen men on the show with more magnetism than him! Very little pleasure to be had watching him copulate.

Bill is British - we're taking over HBO!

and Jason is Aussie!
What an amazing actor he grew into! Ive not seen him in anything since I stopped watching Home Away.
You've got to salute the level of self belief which drove him to start afresh in LA. It would have been so much easier to have come here and settled for mediocre bullshit like the rest of them.
Jason and Tara are my favourite characters by far.

yeah! i love lafayette...wicked character.
I love LaFayette and Jason together. The George Bush mask sex dance scene was all kinds of win.
You gon' make me clutch my pearls!
White jockey pants never looked so good.
Everything about the show is clever
The marketing ploys and adverts are even clever!
