True Blood: The Complete Second Season (HBO Series)

Comment: I downloaded this season as I couldn't wait to view it. Season 1 was excellent, and season 2 didn't depart from the usual cliffhanger episode endings. IMO the best episodes were episodes 7,8 and 9. From then on I feel that it went down hill. I really didn't like the Maryanne storyline. I think they should've ended the season with the Godric storyline. The 3 episodes that I mentioned made it worth to see this season, IMO.
I like other vampire shows, but True Blood depicts exactly how vampires need to be depicted-bloodthirsty.

Comment: Delivered quickly and in good condition. Loved every minute of this and can not wait for the second season to be revealed!!!!!!!!! Love the story Lines!!

Comment: Michelle Forbes is so nice looking but her storyline was so tedious and unattractive like her terrible hippie outfits. However, Evan Rachel Woods was perfectly styled and given great lines in this season. I've never seen Season 1 but the relationship between Sookie and Bill seems to have run its course. I thought their relationship was a commnt on those simple romances that happen especially in isolated not well-off places between an older guy and young girl on the cusp where the girl's greatest attractiveness is her youth and the contrast of her youth to her beau's dotage. It happens frequently, people get married, women get widowed young and they think it's a happy ending IF they never leave their small part of the world. If they ever do get tired of each other, then the girl is going to look back and think, "Gak, that wasn't love at all but ...." I wouldn't buy this series but would strongly recommend scanning it for Evan Rachel Wood's jewel box performance piece. This show has a talent for the cliffhanger but I was fortunate enough to see all the episodes in one sitting on cable otherwise I would have been very frustrated waiting for the next installment. The cliffhangers are outsized compared to what is actually delivered. There was way too much of the bacchanalia storyline. This season left you wanting more of the Swedish guy and Evan Rachel Wood.

Comment: I just finish season two. UUUUUUGH. Okay, The whole god cowhead demon story arc was all jacked up. The writers should have left that crap in the back their minds. That was just bad and I got tired all that lame hippie dancing in every damn episode. I was so happy that Lafayette did get a little bit back to his old self again, I was really hoping the "poor me" syndrome wasn't going to go on for long.

I like how they are fleshing Eric out more, he's becoming more of the Eric from the books. Good job on them for that one. And I will say now that his hair isn't in his face completely, the guy they got for Eric isn't as ugly as I once thought he was. He's slightly attractive, so I wouldn't mind seeing him kissing or screwing another guy/girl. Still don't like the bags under his eyes though.

That brings me to another thing. I'm pissed, pissed, pissed that not one GAY scene was in this series at ALL. Two seasons, not ONE. GAY. SCENE. what the hell!?!?!?!?!!? I'm just like the Queen herself, I LOVE seeing two men together. If I've got to look at a bunch of uglyass straight ppl having sex, naked body parts everywhere, then I should be able to see some naked parts I actually WANT to see in just as many sex scenes. Eric is BISEXUAL, he LIKES men just as much as women. I really hope they stop throwing the homosexual words around in the show and actually start showing some freaking homosexuality!!! If OZ can do it, and Blood and Sand can do it and Queer as Folk can do it True Blood should be able to do it too.

I love Pam, and Jessica is growing on me. I enjoyed all of the scenes the vampires had, the show could use more of those. I did feel as though the Godric arc was rushed, but I think it was the best scene in the series the scene between Godric and Eric on the roof. Very good acting on Eric's part.

All in all, not the best vamp series I've ever scene, but I'm enjoying it well enough to keep watching.

Comment: Keep up the original music in the soundtrack! It makes for total awesomeness! I think the Song "Don't Say No" by Ryan Anderson Link should be an original for the next season. Check it out at LastFm. All I can do is think of Eric when I hear it!
