True Blood series 2: will it suck?

True Blood series 2 has finally made it to Australian television. I had mixed feelings about series one, but I'm willing to give series two a try. So here we go (minor spoilers, for the three people in the world who haven't already seen this):

Episode One.

Sookie: OMG, it's a dead body without a HEART!

Me: Sigh.

Bill: It wasn't me. And it wasn't my pet vampire girl, either.

Sookie: You've got a pet vampire girl? You don't spend every waking moment thinking about ME ME ME ME ME? OMG Bill you LIED to ME ME ME ME ME...

Uncle Kiddy-fiddler: {remember me? I died in the last series?}

Sookie: Hmm, what shall I do with this unwanted inheritance? Tear it up? Donate it to a worthy charity? No, I know. I'll give it to my idiotic but dead cute brother, who'll no doubt piss it away on booze and drugs. Naked. Good thing I don't realise he's in the clutches of the Vile Church of Vampire Hating, or this would be an even worse idea.

Jason: Oh, look. Kool-aid. {glug glug glug}

Sam: {angst}

Sookie: You know, Sam, I feel kinda bad about treating you like a sack of sh*t...

Sam: Get lost, Sookie.

Me: Yay!!!!

Sookie: Bill, did you kill Uncle Kiddie-fiddler?

Bill: {tortured silence}

Sookie: OMG Bill you are a MURDERWAH!!! My untarnished conscience is... well, tarnished. I can't bear the sight of you!!!

Bill: But Sookie, I WUV you.

Sookie: Oh. Okay, then. Let's shag. In fact, let's make a really UNSEXY sex scene.

Lafayette: I'm not dead! Surprise! Instead, I'm chained to a merry-go-round in a cellar with a redneck who secretly wants me to blow him. This really SUCKS.

Eric: {glower}

TO BE CONTINUED...

So there you have it. This show is strangely entertaining for all its faults -- well, it only really has one, heroine-shaped fault for me.

Sookie is still whining. Eric has foils in his hair. And Lafayette is still there. I'll be back next week :)

  1. Can't wait to see how you write the MaryAnne line (no, not Mary Sue, she's a MaryAnne). I've just watched the finale & am mixed over it. Get why they did it the way they did but *sigh*. Maybe I'm just hard to really impress *lol*.

  6. Oh, yes. Whining Sookie drives me insane. The way all the other characters put up with her crap drives me even insane-er :)
    But just when I'm about to hurl the dog at the television in disgust, something cool will happen, and I have to keep watching :0 it's so infuriating!

    I have to love Eric, despite the foils, esp. if he wears any type of clothing that shows off his body. He is the only one that I don't want to slap senseless.

    :) oh yeah, I crack myself up. They say sarcasm is the lowest form of wit.
    That means it's still a form of wit, though. I'll go with that :)

  12. LMAO
    I was so bitterly disappointed in season 1 that I haven't gone anywhere near season 2. Your rundown, however, made me laugh out loud. And remember, tact for people not witty enough to use sarcasm. :) Stick with Supernatural.
