[US] True Blood - Season 2 [** Spoilers **]

Who here called it that Eric could fly, way back when he healed Lafayette and told him he had to fly, then showed up in Dallas very quickly? I don't want to go back through the thread to find out, but good call .

So (and feel free to spoiler tag the answer if needed), in the books, can all the vampires fly or does it have to do with age/power? Cause Bill sure seems happy to use Anubis Air...

Jason and Andy are a great duo, though I still don't know where things are going with them. It was kind of ironic that Sam did not want to follow them, telling them they were going to get themselves killed, but it seems he is in more trouble now by going off on his own...

And WTF is that egg (?!) all about?

Though did anyone notice that Hoyt's mom seemed to be indicating that Maryann was expecting a child or something? Is that what the freaky egg is about?

Two weeks. Aaaaargh! :mad:

He has some plans for him. Also when Eric finished he said he 'has to fly'. Then there was a sound like taking off. I'm thinking that as the vampires mature they become more powerful and eventually gain the ability to fly. This would be why older vampires blood is far more valuable than newer ones.

It was a good episode but it didn't have the pace of the last few. Andy and Jason really worked well together. Jason had some great lines again. The scene with the both of them in the truck really was good.

The Queens court was interesting. She must have a lot of power as Bill went along with whatever she said. It was interesting that Sookie's cousin was there and then the Queen said that she can#t wait to meet Sookie before Bill left. It will be interesting to see if she has plans for her in the next season.

Loved the scene in fangtasia with Sam, Eric and the kids. I think that Same met Eric when he went into Merlotte's in season one with Pam and intimidated the rednecks who burned the vampires. Saying that they know when someone has offended against them.

Tara's mother was monumentally stupid to let her go. When Lafayette met MaryAnn and Karl I knew she was going to change him as he is only human. Karl didn't end up too well after all of his serving. Now Lafayette is going to be her cook.

I have a feeling that MaryAnn is going to use Sookie as the offering as she has just learned that Sookie has powers and so stradles 'both' worlds. That and the Queen said that the Maenads are constantly changing their recipes in order to summon their god.

I'm not overly impressed with either of them. Much prefer to see Alexander Skarsgård (Eric) win an award - he rocks. The whole tea-cup humans scene was priceless

He's a great actor, it's hard to believe that Eric and Brad (from Generation Kill) are played by the same guy.

To be fair, Its not that hard to play the cool, aloof badass. As good as Skarsgård is, he gets the best lines and some great scenes. Most of the Dallas storyline would be an actors dream...loads of range and different scenes to play.

Moyer has a good role, he should be doing better with it. He's very one tone. Leimrod put it brilliantly a few pages back with his "Sookie....I am Vampire!" impression.

Just watched all 23 episodes over the past 10 days. Gotta say it's an enjoyable show. Can't wait to see how MaryAnn gets taken out.

I take it that the big egg was just some bizarre trip on the part of Tara and Egg (coincidentally just after Jason had been talking about Sam laying an egg) or is that how shapeshifters are born...

I wish they would kill her off....but she's black so I'm guessing that won't happen. Definately my least favourite character and actor. I swear, the woman can't act. In every scene she is in, she is shouting and giving the audience her "surprise eyes" whether the scene calls for it or not.

Jason, Eric and Lafayette also bring comic relief.....and unlike her their lines are usually funny

Maybe it's just a pet peeve, but I tend to want to skip scenes with her in it. I don't skip em, but its a bad sign that she makes me want to. Only character/actor that really irks me on the show.

same here. She doesn't bother me. I mean her running off to save Eggs (curious name now that I think about it, lol ) was no different to Sookies shenanigans which have put her in danger.

I also thought she did a very good job at the start of this season. The look on her face when she seen the dead woman with her heart ripped out in the back of Andy's car was very believable.

I think there's like an uncanny valley for stupidity... the more stupid people are in a show the more irritating they are, but it eventually hits a point where they go from irritatingly stupid to hilarious. Like Jason, he has to be the dumbest person in the show, but I like him a lot more than Sookie.

I thought it was a clever nickname for a guy named "Benedict". Much more imaginative than "Ben."

What annoys me most is that her name is Tara yet everyone in the show seems to pronounce it Tera...:rolleyes:
