True Blood: Season Two (1 Viewer)

[PhilipG]

I was disappointed with those scenes. It would be much more interesting IMO if she were more psycho and less OC.

I wonder what was connected to the wheel that the the prisoners were turning? Perhaps some sort of rotisserie for the customers above...

 

[TravisR]

Lenny: "I wonder what makes it turn?"
Carl: "Who cares."

 

[Jeff Pounds]

I bet we see some of that...

The whole point is that she's an impulsive, wreckless, headstrong, annoying teenager.... add in the fact that she's a vampire and things could dangerous for others and her.

One line of dialog that I'm sure was not just slipped in there extraneously.... when Bill noted that "2/3 of new vampires don't make it through their first year..."

Could have some ramifications later in the season perhaps?

 

[Mikah Cerucco]

It was a pretty interesting line, that's for sure. Why don't they make it?

 

[ScottH]

Did anyone else's recording cut off at the end due to it running over? Mine ended right at the hour mark when Eric was talking to that red neck guy in the basement.

 

[TravisR]

You didn't miss much. Eric asked him about the vampire house that got burned down last season. Then the guy (Royce?) puts a silver cross on Eric's face which burns him. Then Eric kills him as Lafayette watches and gets splattered with blood.

 

[Charlie Campisi]

That scene with the cross was kind of interesting. I've seen a lot of vampire stuff recently and may be confusing my worlds, but didn't Bill say last season that crosses and silver have no effect on them?

 

[Steve Tannehill]

Silver burns. We saw several instances of that last season. Bill said that crosses had no impact, but if it were made of silver, I guess it could burn, which is what appeared in this episode.

[ScottH]

Thanks Travis. I didn't miss much, heh?

This show is why I insisted on Comcast renewing my HBO subscription.

 

[Lou Sytsma]

This is a show that has really found its footing. Great second episode. All the story threads are very intriguing. I am very curious about Michelle Forbe's character and am on pins and needles to see what happens with Lafayette.

 

[Henry Gale]

And to see what's in store for Jason.
When the hour is up and I'm shouting at the screen because I want more, I know I'm addicted.

 

[TravisR]

Jason saying "I believe that was Moses" made me laugh. I also enjoy that it looks like he'll be nailing the preacher's wife soon.

Oh and Michelle Forbes is really hot.

 

[Citizen87645]

Any thoughts on what Marianne might be? If she were a dude, I'd guess Bacchus. But then she still might be a dude - sorry TravisR.

 

[Zack Gibbs]

I'm sure they've worked out what she is now, but it seems pretty clear they had no idea what she was when they introduced her in Season 1. I wish they had come up with something better for her past relationship with doggy-man.

 

[TravisR]

Is she a character from the books? If she is, I'd guess that they've always known what she is. If not, I still think they at least had a rough idea of what the character would be. I'm not saying that they've got some grand plan and backstory for every character but it can't be that hard to at least know what the character's true nature is when you introduce it.

 

[PhilipG]

Well, I'm sure I heard the word "Bacchus" being whispered a couple of times when Sucky was reading her mind...

I'm more inclined to believe she's one of the Bacchae.

And, yes, Ensign Ro is still hot!

 

[Citizen87645]

Her attractiveness has been a pleasant surprise for me since the last few things I've seen her in have really downplayed that.

 

[Jeff Pounds]

Yes... I love Jason's interactions with his "rival"....

The whole "capture the flag" sequence with "God Bless Texas" playing was just too hilarious.

 

[Jeff Pounds]

Speaking of Jason... am I remembering incorrectly that there was a brief scene in last week's episode that suggested that Jason might be telepathic as well?

It seems like there was a scene where he was staring into the mirror and voices started popping into his head and he was trying to clear them, like Sookie does...?

It would possibly make sense that both he and Sookie have those powers (genetics), and he only recognized them only after he actually stopped boozing and slutting around for 10 minutes or so...
