Wasn't she a vampire in the books, or was there another cousin?

I was a little upset to see Claudine show up, hopefully they keep the Fae war to a minimum. I was digging the fact each season is starting to stray from the books yet keep te overall plot the same. They can also keep Amelia and Ophelia out as well.

yeah, Hadley had been turned in the books, and then she bites it.

i wasnt quite ready for claudine yet either. i agree on the amelia thing, but they'll have to bring the witches in at some point, because that's what's next in the storyline for Eric pretty much! they need to develop the Were storyline before getting into the faeries though.

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):
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...kie_Stackhouse

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?

Yes, Claudine needs to be TALL!!!!!!!!! that chick ain't cutting it.

i gotta say, the wooden bullet thing was pretty damn cool!

Has anyone picked this up yet? http://blog.zap2it.com/thedishrag/20...one-cover.html

I heard that ASkars refuses to wear a sock in nude scenes.

Claudine is supposed to be drop dead gorgous but that actress who plays her is kind of plain looking. Someone correct me if I'm wrong but last episode had nothing to do with the book.

Not a bit of it. I'm not crazy with how they're going about introducing the community of Hot Shot. I'm so over the Sam's family story line.

I HATE how they are portraying Cal!!!!!!!!

Nanners52674 · #10 08-22-2010, 10:02 PM

Can not stand what they are now showing as Sam's background.

IrishLake · #11 08-22-2010, 10:07 PM

All the more reason why books are always better than the movies/tv shows.

Season Finale, already! Wowsa.

ETA: Never mind.. something I heard said tonight, but they just showed a preview that said the finale is the 12th.

Pecan · #13 08-30-2010, 10:36 PM

How did I not find this TB thread earlier??? I love True Blood and Eric's FOINE self!!!!

Yes I'm also shocked that the season is just about over with already. It seems like it just started!!!

I finished book 1 Saturday night and book 2 last night (bought it after work, read off and on until 2 am, i'm geeky like that). Interesting. I like the storyline so far.

I hated Sam in this episode. All of the sudden, he has a crazy past? It wasn't alluded to at all in the first two seasons, which bugs me from a continuity standpoint.

I laughed during the re-cap of last week's episode when Sookie said, "I'm a fairy? How f-in lame!"

Yay @ Eric's plan, though it almost kills him (dang previews spoiled it, though I know they wouldn't get rid of him anytime soon). It makes me laugh when he has to bend his head down to look at people, especially Sookie. He just looks so lurchy lol.
