True Blood came out before the Twilight movie, by a couple of months.

I like this season. I like how they are not strictly following the books. I like Alcide better on the show than in the books. He's sooooooo hunky and I mean than in a physical way. They could use some more actors with some literal meat on their bones. That character is a fine specimen of a manly man as long as he doesn't start whimpering (or howling) over Debbie. Did you know that at one time the actor was a stunt man?

I actually think Bill is a much better character this year away from Sookie. Not that he's a nicer character, just a more interesting one. I want to give a shout out to the director and crew of the episode before the most current one. That scene when Bill walks in to the king's livingroom (I think) in the creme colored jacket to announce he's taking up the King on his offer was shot exceptionally well and Moyer did all of the right physical moves. It reminded me of movies when a confident mobster glides into a room with an entourage of body guards behind him and surveys the scene. Also, they shot him up making the actor look bigger than he actually is. He rocked in that scene. It's so much better than playing Jessica's and Sookie's stern "father."

Franklin is still creepy but he's really interesting, too. The scene of him with Jessica was sooooo good. Not sure about him and Tara.

Jason "blackmailing" Andy though is out of character. He's not smart enough or mean enough to think up something like that. He was just telling Andy he was his best friend and now he's pulling this?

Sam's family ought to put the kabosh on kids looking for their biological parents. Are they the family from hell or what?

I like the vampire blood selling story line and the Queen of Loiusiana vs the King of Mississippi political story line. And anytime we get to see the Magister is fine by me. I really like the Eric conflict.

I have never had the overwhelming desire to lick a man's abs before in my life...until now.

Yeah, it's hard to believe Jason would pull that. I mean, we already know he's stupid, but if he were that stupid Sookie would have to dress him in the morning.

Sam's family, and their kind, are the reason I've never wanted to seek out my own 'long losts' or be found by them. It's not always fun. A lot of times, life was sparing you a lot of pain, and you go and circumvent the barrier life set up for you? Nice move.

I was so glad that you initially brought this up b/c I hadn't thought about it. I actually remembered this point during last night's ep when the wolf licked the brand on Denise's shoulder--it was just wrong to make an animal do that I am definitely not watching anymore, this season sucks (teehee) anyway

I actually like Bill's maker, though she cramps Sookeh's style big time. I guess it's just that I admire the way the actress is able to go total vamp in two different senses.

After looking at your link I give two thumbs up to whoever made the decision to change his hair style and add the face hair.

I know a fairly well known actor and when he has to take off his shirt he said they hide his rather large tattoo (family member names) with make-up.
