I love her thing

I don't know why people think I want to hear about their problems. Maybe I smile too much. Maybe I wear too much pink...
xD GLORIOUS!

And yes, Sizzla, it did. I wasn't going to use it at first because I've neved used that sort of site before.
But omg, I couldn't stand waiting two-three hours to watch a one-hour show.
And I'll tell you what, the quality was just sad. xD I COULD SEE EVERY PIXEL!

Thanks again!

Sizzla 08-24-2010 06:15 PM

Yeah, streaming sucks unless it's hulu or something. Torrents are SOOOOO much easier, and you can get them in high-def if you want. :D

Wynna 08-24-2010 09:52 PM

@ Estrella, I have read up to the sixth book. I'm getting distracted so the sixth book is being slowly read right now. You?

Estrella 08-24-2010 10:26 PM

Sizzla - Or Netflix. But even that's kinda' wonky on my computer. x__X;

Wynna - I've read them all plus all of her short stories. :drool: :heart:
So I'll try to avoid talking about the books too much yet.
Don't wanna' spoil them for you. XD

Wynna 08-25-2010 02:46 AM

I kinda spoiled the book series myself, by reading the summaries online through wikipedia.

Estrella 08-25-2010 03:41 AM

WELL POO-POO ON YOU WYNNA!
xD Just kidding. :heart:

So, you're okay if I talk about them, I assume?
I'll put it in a spoiler bar anyway

spoilerX


I know that in the books Sookie does get introduced to witches - closely - so it wouldn't surprise me if they put them in the TV series as well.

Sizzla 08-25-2010 03:46 AM

OH yeah, they're totally going to have them! Holly's only the beginning.

Estrella 08-25-2010 06:55 AM

I just finished the third episode and I gotta' say the Lorena & Bill scene at the end = EWWWW.

I mean, c'mon! D: REALLY?

Also the fellow that plays Alcide is sooo my type
Rugged and manly. :drool:

Edit: I had a hard time placing Franklin for a minute. xD
I read the books but I couldn't remember him.

spoilerX

That couldn't be because he was a MINOR character!? XD I guess he's just taking the place of the Mickey fellow?

Sizzla 08-25-2010 11:50 AM

Yep, Franklin's Tara's sugardaddy. I love Franklin's character. He's crraaaazy. XP

Wynna 08-25-2010 04:16 PM

Franklin in the books was so much nicer than he is in the series.
Ya, that scene with Lorena and Bill? 0_o??

SPOILERX

I hope that they do the witch's war well. Like a big epic fight scene.

Estrella 08-25-2010 04:55 PM

Sizzla-twizzla - He's totally crazy. xD He's for sure that other character from the book.

Wynna - Yeah, I haven't gotten far enough into the season to see how that'll pan out.
I'm more worried that they won't keep the Eric and Sookie thing real. >.<

Sizzla 08-25-2010 06:04 PM

They better keep EricxSookie! I'd be sad if they didn't. Book 4 was THE BEST. Eric with amnesia = :heart:

I thought it was great in the books! I'm only on the 6th book, so I don't know if they get back together but I hope they do.

Hate Bill, hate Bill.

Estrella 08-26-2010 12:49 AM

I finished episode four last night before going to bed.
BILL IS SUCH A FRIGGIN' JERK. Oh my gosh!
I mean, I understand he's with his king and maker but he's so easily swayed away from what he believes.
>.<

I can't wait to see what happens.

And yes, Sizzla, I agree. I absolutely ADORED amnesia Eric. He was incredible.
I like to think that it's the way he would be with her if he weren't sheriff and have all those demands.
If Eric could just be Eric without all the flair.

_Tsukasa_ 08-26-2010 07:10 PM

iv read all of the books that r out and the show is a bit diff then the books but this is one rare moment where i kinda like the show more then the books xD for one they didnt kill one of my fav charecters Lafeyet(i have no clue how to spell it ^^;) but yeah i love true blood <3 Eric

Estrella 08-26-2010 10:28 PM

I do have one MAJOR complaint about the series: Sookie is a lot dumber in the TV series in the books.

SPOILERX

At least in the books when she DIDN'T know about EVERYTHING Bill had done. Yes, she knew he had left her for Lorena but she had some logic about it at least. In the series, he didn't choose to leave but he sleeps with Lorena, leaves Tara to the likes of Franklin, finds out that he's gather information on her from Russel and she STILL risks her life for his. At least book Sookie would have known when to say enough-is-enough and left him when she had the chance. Bill's a scum bag. :illgetu:

And her "he was forced to do it" line is total B.S. Book Sookie would NOT have understood that.


*huffs* I finished episode 7 last night.
Russel is AMAZING. I love his character.

And I gotta' say the whole time Lafayette and Jesus were one screen I was like "DDDAWW!!"
That is some CUTE happenings right there.

Wynna 08-30-2010 07:49 PM

I watched the most recent episode this afternoon. The ending of it, I'm like what?! They better not get rid of Eric..

Estrella 08-30-2010 09:29 PM

The last one I watched was Episode 10.
And I hated it, a lot.

I mean, truly hated it.

BIG SPOILERX


I don't know what Pam and Eric are thinking anyway! Russel doesn't want Sookie anymore. He's going to kill Eric either way since he killed Russel's friend (the name escapes me right now). I just hate that they even did that with Pam because she likes Sookie in the books and what Eric did is crap too.


*growls*

Wynna 08-31-2010 01:07 AM

I know, I hope this all turns out to work in Sookie's favour. I don't recognize any of this in the books...I was liking Russell's character. He's crazy. I just hope they don't get rid of Eric.

Sizzla 08-31-2010 01:12 AM

They WOULD NEVER get rid of Eric. NO WAY. He's like, integral to the storyline.

I haven't watched this week's episode, but I will tonight. I'll come share my thoughts later tonight. :D

Wynna 08-31-2010 11:29 AM

I just don't know how he is going to get out of this pickle he has himself in.

Sizzla 08-31-2010 11:59 AM

Pam's totally going to save the day. Someone will, I guarantee it. Though man, what a great plan! I didn't see that coming.

Estrella 08-31-2010 04:53 PM

This episode made me feel a little better about the series, though there's not doubt in my mind that Eric will be saved.

Sizzla 08-31-2010 06:29 PM

I'm really interested in how the whole Lala/Jesus thing is going to work out. After Lala's flashbacks last night, I'm super curious what's going to go down with them.

And Jessica/Hoyt = :heart: Awwww! I'm so happy for them.

Estrella 08-31-2010 06:32 PM

Yeah, I wonder if Jesus is gonna' become an addict though. I think he was really obnoxious to push Lafayette into doing V and then wanting to do it again two seconds later.

And yes, I'm glad they repaired the Jessica/Hoyt thing.
I don't know what Summer and his mom are thinking, that boy's in LUURVVE.

I still don't appreciate what they're doing Pam and Eric's characters, though.
I am just glad Bill is now on Sookie's shit list again.

Maybe this means we'll have Quinn-filled season next time? :O Because she's on outs with both Bill & Eric!?
