I Heart eric and is seems he will have a bigger and bigger role in the series....very Spike-esk in a few ways. I don't want to spoil anything for those of you that havent seen the show, but anyone else read the twilight series and get a strange sense of deja vu. I know the books were all written about the same time.....but its kinda odd..... Sam= Jacob. Someone can read thoughts, all except their love interest, etc. there are quite a few.

Did anyone buy Season 1 on DVD or Blu-Ray this week? I picked up the Blu-Ray. Can't wait to watch through the season again and get ready for Season 2 (starting June 14!). Love the packaging for the set as well. HBO always delivers high quality work.

Anyone else psyched for tonight? Unfortunately, I may not be able to watch it until tomorrow, since I'm the only person in my house that watches it and I may not be able to claim the TV, but regardless, I really excited! The season looks great, especially because Eric is in every episode (YUMMY!)! The only thing I'm worried about is Lafayette...I really hope he comes back, but some of the things I've read have made me slightly less optimistic for him .

I was counting down on my Twitter for part of the day, I was so excited. And I must say, the season premiere did not disappoint

I thought it was good. It opened up some new stories for Season 2: Bill's new charge living with him, Tara and that weird lady (and her history with Sam), and where the hell is Lafayette?

Easily the best episode so far. They really got a great start to the season.

I loved the premiere. Just a really fantastic episode all around. So happy this show is back! Almost done with my re-watch of Season 1.

I also got it on DVD. What were your favorite episodes Wyn? I think the one with her grandmother's funeral and the one before the finale were pretty damn amazing. Not that the rest weren't; those just stand out.

Not that the rest weren't; those just stand out. The one with her grandmother's funeral was brilliant. I bawled during the scene where Tara's mother showed up at the funeral, but that may be because every time Tara's mother appears onscreen, I get incredibly sad. I don't even know why, since it doesn't even hit remotely close to home, but her whole character is just so heartbreaking to me. The finale was great, too. I NEVER would have expected it to be Rene (and I'm sort of upset it was, since I always liked him). Also, the premiere was great. I didn't think it was the best episode yet, since they still had to set up the plot of season 2 (which they did very well), but regardless, I loved it. First off, I am SO glad Lafayette is alive! I wonder what they're going to do with him...I kind of hope he becomes a vampire. And Eric with the foil in his hair and the apron was HILARIOUS! Never mess with a guy with highlights. Also, the Bill/Jessica interaction was great! I thought she was really funny in the first season and still hope to see more of her in this one. Not a big fan of Jason becoming all religious, though...it almost seems like they're trying too hard to make him seem like a total asshole. Still, there's one thing I am SO curious about. I NEED to know the deal with Marianne! What the hell is she?! So far, all we've established is that she's an immortal (or so it seems, since she looked exactly the same in the flashback, but that could be the makeup department's fault) vibrating demon lady who has a lot of money. That certainly narrows it down [/sarcasm].

Not that the rest weren't; those just stand out. I agree, those are my two favorite episodes so far. The scene in Cold Ground where Sookie finishes her Grandmother's pie is so sad! The finale of season one was good, but I think Bill should have gotten more screen time in it. I'm not a big Bill fan, but I still think he needed more. The season two episode was pretty good! It set up many different stories. I loved Eric with an apron! HAHA! And Im kinda glad he is getting a new hair style soon, because I dont dig the long hair on him. But overall I am really in love with this show! Im trying to get season one on DVD as we speak. And I must add: Im going for Sam/Sookie! ;D P.S. : And is it just me, or did Twilight rip this book series off big time?!

I agree, those are my two favorite episodes so far. The scene in Cold Ground where Sookie finishes her Grandmother's pie is so sad! Is it bad that I laughed during that scene? I was mostly just thinking, "Damn, how did Sookie eat half of a pecan pie by herself?!" Still, in spite of my feelings toward that particular scene, I did shed a tear during that episode. P.S. : And is it just me, or did Twilight rip this book series off big time?! I first read this as, "Is it just me, or did this series rip off of Twilight big time?", and I was about to start on my "BUT THE BOOKS CAME OUT 5 YEARS BEFORE TWILIGHT" rant...good thing I reread that, because I was SO ready to vent! But yeah, Twilight does come across as a True Blood ripoff, only with all of its redeeming qualities, sex, and violence sucked out. Also, here's the trailer for episode 2: It looks SO GOOD! Lots of Eric yumminess! And I really hope Lafayette becomes a vampire, because the show could always use more of him.

I'm staying away from that trailer as I like to stay as spoiler free as possible when it comes to True Blood (I didn't read the first book until after the first season), as there are just so many surprises. I can't wait to find out what will happen to Lafayette either. Eric said in Season 1 that they would be back and knew who wronged them, so it is cool that they are bringing that plot point back.
This mystery with Miss Jeanette is great though, I wonder if it is a new creature that stole her heart? Maryanne is also a great character, I loved when she bitch slapped her butler. Also can't wait to find out what she is.

Yes, I think the next episode looks great!
Hmm, Im wondering if I should get the books. I love a good series of books to read, and I need a new one. But I'm not sure if I want to ruin the show for myself....

But I'm not sure if I want to ruin the show for myself.... What I'm doing is just reading each book after each season finishes. It will take a long time to read the series, but if you don't want to spoil the show first by reading the respective book, that's the best way to do it. I really enjoyed the first book too.
