i noticed my dvr wasn't recording so i went to remedy the situation and it said recording is not allowed

6/10/2012 9:05:26 PM

I have to wait for the HBOGo. Ugh, I hope they don't wait forever to post it!

6/10/2012 9:12:26 PM

There's no waiting it's on Go now. Sorry I should have added that earlier. I have to wait for the bf to wrap up diablo so we can watch it in 10 mins

A few thoughts:

- That makes three HBO shows that prominently displays incest
- I'm glad Russell is back, he has definitely been the best and most likable villain the show has had.
- I still don't understand why Sam is even nervous around the werewolves ... he could easily turn into a rhino or a silverback gorilla or something and just tear them in half.
- Now it looks like Terry has some kind of supernatural ability. In the tiny town of Bon Temps, the only full fledged humans are Andy, Arlene, Hoyt, and possibly Jason (questionable since he might still be some kind of were-panther).

6/10/2012 10:32:22 PM

It's a stretch to call that incest.

Buy i'm with you on everything else. The werewolves are not the big deal they make them out to be. Sam can turn into anything, this shouldn't even be an issue.

6/10/2012 10:45:59 PM

I'm assuming they are siblings through Godric, so it's not that icky

Last season they said Jason is not a were panther since you can only be were if you inherit it

yeah, he specifically said she was his sister in that Godric was her maker as well.

6/10/2012 11:09:13 PM

that was pretty good. agreed on the werewolves not being very threatening. it'd be awesome if sam randomly turned into a dinosaur.

6/10/2012 11:49:39 PM

potential spoiler
















im really pissed that Tara is still in the show.

6/11/2012 1:19:46 AM

spoiler






^ oh god fucking dammit.

6/11/2012 5:55:13 AM

I don't think it's a spoiler if it's already been shown lol

But yeah I totally agree! I was a bit too happy when they blew her head off

6/11/2012 6:33:03 AM

^agreed.

I thought it was a great season opener. I'll also say that in my opinion nothing that is going on with Terry is supernatural. At least I haven't seen anything yet to suggest as much. You might be looking into it too much.

6/11/2012 8:44:41 AM

He might just be affected by something supernatural rather than have powers of his own. Happens so often in this town that I'm amazed anyone still lives there.

It was an alright episode. You knew they weren't going to kill off Tara. Actually I had hope that they would since they spared Lafayette on viewer opinion alone maybe they'd kill her off on viewer opinion.

I think the response to this is that he has to have had exposure to and have studied the animals he's shifting into. If that were the case, I'd be at the motherfucking zoo or in Africa or something and turn into an elephant or a polar bear or a whale. I agree, Sam's an idiot.

6/11/2012 9:07:13 AM

It looks like the thing with Terry is some kind of curse -- he may not have any actual supernatural abilities but he definitely has more exposure than you'd expect for someone in a small town. Looks like his squad ran into something in Iraq... I swear if it is some kind of mummy curse or something this show will have officially gone crazy.

Agreed on Sam though. Although it would be cool if he turned into a dinosaur he'd probably have to be exposed to them a lot which obviously isn't an option. I, too, would think he'd have spent a lot of time studying the worlds strongest/fasest/most agile creatures. If he was able to switch between them immediately he could easily take out the entire pack of werewolves. Hell he could just turn into a whale and flatten all of them. Although it would be way too over the top for a show like this (which is saying a lot), if he could turn into a cheetah and hit top speed, then jump and turn into a whale he would could take out a few houses... imagine a whale flying through the air at like 70 mph.

6/11/2012 9:13:22 AM

Honestly, I don't think 70mph flying whale is "too over the top" for this show.

The method for shifting in the books is just that he has to see one right before he shifts. So, he kept a book of animals on his coffee table (open to the collie he liked) before he would shift. He shifted into a lion in the books, so I wouldn't think it's too far fetched to do that in the show too

And I don't think Terry is supernatural, but I think his new friend in town definitely has something off about him.

Yeah, I don't think he has any powers. But I could maybe see the idea that something happened in the way, which maybe caused him to go a little crazy.


Sam turned into something and stabbed the chick in season 2 or whatever. I don't see why he couldn't at least turn into that. I do seem to recall him not knowing he could turn into different stuff until around that time though.

6/11/2012 9:31:23 AM

I'm also annoyed that Tara is still around. I was glad when they deviated and kept Lafayette, but he's also started to get on my nerves lately. I want him to be more of Season 1 Lafayette and less of a shell shocked cry baby.

6/11/2012 9:43:55 AM

Pam saying "fucktarded" and Eric's ass.

That is all.

Wait. One more. I'd hate to be Russell's dinner menu upon waking up from his cement grave.

Now, that is all.



[Edited on June 11, 2012 at 10:02 AM. Reason : ]

speaking of ass, Eric's "sister" is hot as fuck. Ditto that naked female werewolf. Gimme some more of that!

6/11/2012 10:05:02 AM

Agreed. I was all myself.

6/11/2012 10:13:55 AM

He hit it to win it with his sister

6/11/2012 2:52:19 PM

6/11/2012 3:05:27 PM

Is Terry's old army buddy played by Matthew Settle? I think his name is Patrick on the show but he's not listed on imdb.

6/11/2012 9:20:35 PM

no, it's Scott Foley

6/11/2012 10:01:12 PM

I think it's Scott something from Felicity

6/11/2012 10:01:43 PM

That's motherfucking Bob Brown, you bitches better recognize.

He also played Eliot's goofy boyfriend on Scrubs.

6/12/2012 10:23:36 AM

6/12/2012 3:07:17 PM

Definitely Scott Foley.

6/12/2012 8:14:05 PM

Chris Meloni's vampire character seems MUCH faster than any we've seen so far.

Anywho! Yayyyyyy season 5! (so far)

Oh...I want Tara to stake herself. Pronto.

6/17/2012 10:00:59 PM

I think I hate vampire Tara more than I hated human Tara.

agreed. pretty impressive on the writers part.

6/17/2012 10:24:17 PM

So agree. I really don't understand...she leaves in s3, they blow her head off in s4...and now she's a counter sitting, grunting vampire. Blah. true death for the writers/Alan ball for bringing her back.

I'm very interested in what's behind door number 3 at the vampire authority hq.

6/17/2012 10:37:59 PM

God bless, will someone give Tara the true fucking death?!

6/18/2012 8:59:39 AM

This show has officially deviated 100% from the books. I'm at peace with it.

!st episode was good, but the 2nd got annoying. I don't understand what the authority is pissed with at Bill and Eric. I know they killed Nan, but the authority is making it out that they are not aligned with their mainstreaming efforts. Which they are. I'm confused to who is against the authority and how Eric's sister is one of them.




Also, I'm glad to see Doctore from Spartacus doing work.

6/18/2012 9:19:36 AM

Did anyone else laugh their ass off when Sam's woman opened the bedroom door to see her daughter/wolf puppy just sitting there? I just found it hilarious.

6/18/2012 9:57:14 AM

I thought that the girl was being kidnapped or something. And I also thought kids didn't phase until they were teenagers?

[Edited on June 18, 2012 at 10:01 AM. Reason : But yes, puppy in pajamas = hilarious.]

6/18/2012 10:00:57 AM

^^^vampire story deviation, yes...and i too am 100% at peace with it. Very excited actually.
but i do see one story that they might be doing that's still book related. I won't say further itt.

Also...I got that the authority is pissed at Bill and Eric bc not only did they kill Nan, but Bill didn't give Eric the true death as ordered by the authority, and they showed up to the witch store with guns blazing (where's that silly gif of them "dancing" due to the force field? I posted it I think ), and now they are somehow connected with Nora's plan to save them.

But I think Emma is like 10 or 11. She could be developing early (like some other girls do).

[Edited on June 18, 2012 at 11:42 AM. Reason : ]

6/18/2012 11:41:45 AM

Also, lol at the little kid vampire.

6/18/2012 11:58:43 AM

Hahaha yes! Slamming his little fist.

6/18/2012 12:07:20 PM

I think Nan also told the authority all kinds of things to save her ass as well, so they may be going straight off of that.

I had no idea Emma was that much older! hah, I thought she was like 7 or something.

And yes, the kid vampire was adorable. Petulant little bastard.

Law & Order - The Authority

6/18/2012 1:26:27 PM

Why didn't they go underneath the blankets when the UV lights came on in the cell?

6/18/2012 1:39:41 PM

Or take their jackets off and put them over their heads. Curl up under the bed, etc. Lots of things you could do to avoid the lights. That really didn't make much sense.

6/18/2012 1:45:34 PM

it was burning through their jackets so i'm not sure how much it would have helped, but i thought the same thing
