Give me a part of you for part of me

Sookie: He's your maker, isn't he?
Eric: Don't use words you don't understand.
Sookie: You have a lot of love for him.
Eric: Don't use words I don't understand.

TRUE BLOOD, YOU GUYS. *______________♥

Yes, I know y'all have been going on about it for ages upon ages. I was an idiot, mea culpa, etc etc. But that's all behind us now because OMG ADDICTED. I'm on 2x08 and I only started watching season 1 two weeks ago. Amazing.

Right now, it's at a weird place where I really could not give a shit about half the storylines (Maryann, Daphne, Lorena, even Tara's pissing me off, and Sam is booooring), but the rest is all OMGOMGOMG EEEEE. I LOVE and cherish Eric (ASKARSSSSS), Lafayette, HOYT OMG HOYT, Jessica, Terry, and Arlene. I feel mostly pleasantly towards Sookie and Bill and Jason. It's an odd mix, but the EEEEE more than makes up for the bleh. ASKARS I LOVE YOU SO FUCKING MUCH. (Though I will say he's much hotter as Brad, without the red-rimmed eyes.)

SO. YES. TRUE BLOOD. Come make noises at me now that I've seen so much of it! I don't have a lot of intelligent thoughts or anything, since it's TOTALLY ON CRACK, but I had to make a post since it's devoured me starting with my bottom. :D

Ooh and I have a shiny new Band of Brothers mood theme! HI LUZ YER FACE. <3333 I also added interest icons for Generation Kill, True Blood, and White Collar to my LJ sidebar. I need to make a new header but I just didn't get around to it this weekend.

The Pacific started tonight! I didn't get to see it because I don't even have network TV, much less HBO, but I will be *cough* obtaining it soon! SO EXCITED.

Ah, see, that whole issue you have right there is not anything I would ever pick on about the show. Sookie's mostly zen about her gift, and when she met Bill she was THRILLED that she couldn't hear his thoughts, but since then she hasn't made a big deal about it. She's considering it useful right now (where I am in the series) but has not whined about it being a burden in ages. In fact she met another telepath and he's all jumpy and ashamed about it and she's like "No we're awesome! Let's be awesome friends!" and I actually really enjoy her attitude about it.

I think I might be slightly in the minority in my general fondness for Sookie, but it sounds like she's probably better in the show than in the novels!
