True Blood S3

[ree-Xi]

I've been having a harder and harder time dealing with the blood on the show. This week's episode was almost too much - Franklin exploding, Talbot turning into sticky goo, and the end with the anchor - I got sick to my stomach.

BTW, I found this great breakdown of all the characters (I haven't read the books):

Which leads me to a question. On this page, it said that Talbot is Russell's human companion, but in the show, he's a vampire. In the books, is Talbot human or vampire?

Franklin in a jar is awesome, as is Russell. I'm waiting for him to go out with a bang. Wonder if they'll do it this season or if it'll have something to do with the big Eric arc next season.

Talbot is human (and not very memorable) in the books, and Russell isn't this evil. Read the books - they're different from the show and are incredible.

I'm sad that Calvin is made out to be terrible. I like him in the books.

I also think Jesus has something to do with the witch coven. I hate how they're doing the fae this season - isn't Claudine super tall and gorgeous? She appears in the books for the first time in Sookie's car, right?
