    I HATED it! Thought it was a complete waste of time. Seriously nothing made sense and it is so far off the book. I thought it was just me but my husband and friends thought it sucked too.
    I never read the books so maybe that's why I didn't think it sucked. Most shows based on books stray from the books storylines so I guess that's why I never bothered to read the book.

    I thought is fairly interesting. It did a great job with setting up the story lines for the season. Plus it's always wonderful to see Eric.... :tongue:
    Oh God, Eric was beautiful in last night's episode. :love:
    Now I'm waiting for that beautifl 6 foot warewolf to come back..... I can't think of his name..... Yes....True Blood=My Eye Candy...
    OMG YES, the werewolf. He was a pleasant sight :3

    Could be, but it just seemed so far fetched and did not do a good job of explaining things. The previews did seem like it would get better, I guess I just expected more of the 1st episode.

    I noticed that they seem to have really forgotten the books with this one!. But then seasons 1-3 never really followed the books closely either. Loved the books - love the show. I just look at them as two different story lines now.

    Anyone notice thatBill is a little less pale than previous seasons....are they trying to make him look more human? hehe....mmmmmm fairy blood must put some color on your cheeks haha
    Bill is King, right? I really want to know what happened to the Queen. Maybe I forgot something happened last season?

    The end of last season, after the heart-breaking of sookie by bill, Bill heads home and the Queen is there and is like" ah Bill you double-crossed me'. And Bill says sometihng like "I have nothing left to loose". And they go at each other to fight. Since he is now king, my guess is she died.

    Yeah, the show is BASED on the books. I don't think it will strictly follow the books.

    I think it's funny how vampire hair isn't supposed to change, according to Bill in season 1, but yet it has. haha. Oh well. Loved the episode :)

    I've not read the books so I have no prior knowledge of what should be happening. Despite not having read them, I thought last night's episode was weak. (With the exception of all scenes with Eric, of course.)

    Haha, I know! I noticed the change too! But I must say (although I am not a big Bill fan), I love the new hair!

    I read the first book... have to say really didnt care for it at all... too much of a trashy novel... I LOVE what Alan Ball has done with the series, he's taken a really cool idea and made it 200 times better... and can I just say Lafayette is my FAVORITE character!!! "Hookah!"

    LOVE True Blood!!! Regardless of it being such a weeeiirrdd episode, I'm just happy it's finally started! And Eriiccccc...uhhhh..... I'm so glad he bought the house. :D

    I've read 9 out of 10 books...or 11? lol --- I LOVE that it's a different story. The same in regards to characters and certain situations, but the show and books are quite different. I love it because it really keeps it exciting and new.

    I love reading a book before I see a movie. In this case, I'm happy it strays. Because if the love scene between Eric and Sookie from book 4 makes it on the show..... I'd probably pause that ish and not get ANYTHING done. You know what I'm talking about
