Eh, I was still into it. Maybe just because the first two were just that much better?

And what the hell with Daphne at the end? Looks like that minotaur thing took a chunk out of her back, as well...

I like that new vampire chick. I liked it that she's learning to have emotion like her maker. I know people like to see nothing but evil and blood and all that stuff, but there is enough of that with that Eric dude and his buddies. Nice to see something on the good side a little.

I know nothing about the Books, so this is all new to me.

Since her and the monster showed up at the same time, I assumed they are one and the same. Since monsters are made and not born, like vampires, warewolves, childmolesters, ect.

Everyone seems to be something they're not.

Yea, she is turning into a good character.

yea but she has the scratches on her back like Sookie does now, so maybe she is under the control of him/it??

Bingo

Except I think it's "her/it".......

I'm really loving this season. Jessica is a very very cool addition. I'm totally rooting for her whether she's "good" or "evil". And she's waaay hot.

Eric has me intrigued as well. I think he's going to play a big part this season, and not necessarily a bad guy part..

Eggs still has me confused. I have no idea what to think about him, but there's something strange up with him.

Maryann is going to start tearing shit up soon. I love the buildup they're doing with her.

Spoiler!

She's a Maenad.

In Greek mythology, Maenads were the female followers of Dionysus, the most significant members of the Thiasus, the retinue of Dionysus. Their name literally translates as "raving ones". Often the maenads were portrayed as inspired by him into a state of ecstatic frenzy, through a combination of dancing and drunken intoxication. In this state, they would lose all self control, begin shouting excitedly, engage in uncontrolled sexual behavior, and ritualistically hunt down and tear animals (and sometimes men and children) to pieces, devouring the raw flesh.

A maenad is a creature that requires offerings (or tributes) from other supernatural creatures who serve alcohol. If they’re not properly honored they tend to get angry and cause madness in people (supernatural and human) or even kill them.

Bacchus was the god of the grape, of course, so bars are very interesting to maenads. In fact, so interesting that they don’t like other creatures of darkness becoming involved. Maenads believe that the violence sparked by the consumption of alcohol belongs to them; that’s what they feed off, now that no one formally worships their god. And they are attracted to pride.”

Sam was obviously frightened by her, and giving her the money was a "tribute" to her. But she tells him that's not what she wants... so something else is going on there. I think she's affecting Sam a little bit already... He's getting moody. I think she may be slowly driving him mad. She feeds off the madness basically.

There were several pictures of maenads around Maryann's house. Including the huge one that Sookie and boytoy were looking at across the pool. If I remember correctly, it was this pic, which is Pan and a maenad...

Bumped for Vonnie.

I thought the first season was very good TV, not great.

This season has been fantastic so far and has the potential to be great.

I think Eric getting more screen time and the inclusion of Mary Ann has put it over the top.

As strange as it seems, I think the main character is my least favorite.

Who do you consider the main character?

Sookie's plaid shorts are going to the Smithsonian.

Not really strange at all, my fiance loves the show but can't stand sookie and bill.

Eric is becoming my favorite character. I think he's the kind that commands respect but doesn't abuse it. Like when he 'asked' Bill's permission to take Sookie to Dallas, when he could have just done it with/without it.

I'm all caught up, after being gone the last week 1/2. I guess there wasn't a new episode on the 5th?
