'Never, you bible banging c***s'

LOL, I ended up spitting tea out through my nose when heard this.

"Suicide is for Muslims!"

Me: :eek:

That was...interesting.

suomi

Yeah, that whole episode was a bit... wtf. I wish I could just stop watching it but I'm too much of an optimist, I keep hoping it'll get better.

EKRIUQ

This season I though started well but now it just seems to be loosing it some really dead end stories going on Terry and Arlene is a waste of time and I'm practically fast forwarding through it. Wolf and pack leader story line is boring but fairly story line I'm not too sure about that yet and even the vampire story line seems to have progressed very little in 7 episodes

More detailed thoughts:
The Ifrit thing is stupid. Maybe if it had just killed them there and then but it really shouldn't be a continuing storyline. The two guys aren't interesting enough to sustain a long-running "on the run" situation.
Tara as a stripper...lol.
The Lafayette thing was weird as fcuk.
I loved the shot of the vampires parading down Bourbon St, it was hilarious.

I know V gives humans hallucinations, so were we supposed to think that Lillith actually appeared or were they experiencing a mass hallucination?

The werewolf storyline is painfully boring but I like the KKK 2.0 guys.

I think it was just a hallucination since at the end of the episode Eric couldn't see her anymore after Godric appeared and he "sobered up".

Just imagine if all the actors weren't so ridiculously attractive how utterly lame this series would be

All the actors? Well, the male actors perhaps. That Alcide guy is ripped to be sure and all the wimmens seem to go gooey for Eric. Sam is fairly good looking even if he is a midget. My sister thinks Jason is the business too.

But the women seem pretty poor by TV's standard. All the waitressing staff are ugly so a missed opportunity there in my opinion. Pam is old, Tara has a goldfish face, and Sookie is fairly plain. I like Jessica but that's probably just my thing for red heads. She isn't that stunning or anything.

I think the female viewers definitely get the better deal. There is little eye candy for us guys in my opinion, atleast with the main cast. The recurring characters are the only saving grace. Eric's sister is the only woman worth watching this season. Your wan who plays Luna has it aswell. They are probably the best looking. The new pack lady that Alcide trained with is decent enough. Looks a bit haggard though. Slim pickings.

The English and Italian wans in the Authority are cracking and Lilith is unbelievable, as is Luna. Sam tends to recruit the less attractive women all right.

Cina

That scene at the end was ridiculous, even by HBO standards

"So HBO, we're going to have a load of vampires kill a load of people at a wedding"
"Hmm, sounds good, can you make the wedding crowd all cute and innocent looking?"
"Uh yeah, I supp..."
"Oh and throw a child being killed into the mix too. That worked well in Game of Thrones"
"Isn't that a bit..."
"And have a really attractive woman with her gash on full display too, just to keep everyone happy, cause the storylines this season have been a bit crap"
"Sigh ... ok"
"Has Anna got her baps out this season yet by the way?"
"No but surely we've seen them enough at this stage."
"... I don't understand your logic"

MagicMarker

What an epically shít episode.

Good Lord that shot of Jessicas ass when she was sucking that guy in her room when Jason called round :eek:

Brilliant shot aswell when Eric said the blood wouldn't do anything and it cut to them wandering down the street at Mardi Gras

The faerie stuff is so weak though, they should have made it more ancient Greek than this crap they're showing us with that ridiculous nightclub.

Jessicas ass
Nice cutting but looked like time filler or just a shake it up bit.

Fairy stuff; Greek look first then some star trek looking thing and now strip club. I think their saying fairys ain't what they seem
Making it up as they go is the problem because this show needs arch's and endings not weekly soap writing.
