True Blood 2.08


Godric: Aiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeee!!!! BEST. THING. EVER. (is absolutely NOT allowed to sacrifice himself to save vampires from suicide bombers)

Eric's love for Godric: :D (Sookie ships 'em! Woot!) Eric kind of mutually PWNed this episode--I feel like Eric + Godric = greater than the sum of their parts!

Tara: :((((((((( NOT HAPPY. Cannibalism-enduced domestic/sexual violence very rapey. NOT HAPPY.

Jessica: Oh, darling! My heart bleeds for you! Most moving part of story all season and beautifully played (also I heart the writing that allowed that to be a problem).

Godric: You know... other than totally PWNing the whole show... I do have one question: what the fuck was he doing at the Fellowship all that time? Treating it as a zen-retreat? o.O Writing seemed sloppy (Church!dude seemed to be on good terms with him but then he was all 'will not negotiate'?): suspect this comes direct from books?

Sam: Bored. Don't care.

Lafayette: They need to give you a plot, dude!

Jason: Rocking back into form: hooray! Loved the cathartic rage against being taken in by cult. Loved 'let her go, fuckwad!'

Bill: Also rocking back into form after boring!Maker let him go. TOO hilarious in his growliness and Bill/Jason hug hysterical.

Boring!Maker I am oddly sad to see you go. Combined with Bill you bring the boring, but on your own you intrigue me and frankly I feel like your plot raises some legit. issues about Sookie's relationship with Bill that were somewhat lost thanks to the Boring you brought with you. *conflicted*

As you can see, it was an episode that provoked some violent extremes of emotion in me.

Godric better not die. :( Eric alone = more boring. :(

I really need to load up my TB icons... Only having 50 icons sucks!

I have this ... let's call it a "condition", where I know that the show is crack, and derived from crack, but because it is HBO I still keep expecting it to get better. *shrug*

50 icons is faaar too few! *nod*

let's call it a "condition"
OMG! *clings* You have it too!! I thought I was the only one. It's like... it's probably the crackiest crack of all time (though I watch Smallville so that's a BIG call!) but even still I keep vastly overestimating it (like I expect twists) and then being brought down to earth with a thud. Plus, it's the only show I'm watching at the moment so all my hopes are pinned on it.
