Pikey...(warning, in my address to Pikey on the book discussion issue there is a mention of something Pikey has already said which is a spoiler)

book fan myself, I think if you're at least gonna mention the books you only discuss parts of the book that's already occurred on the show (like Godric for example or as recent as Debbie). Quinn should not be mentioned at this point as that is definitely a spoiler for non-book readers. Same with the faerie sex. We know little about them at this point in the show as AB & Co. chose to introduce us to their world end of last season in to the beginning of this season and then chose to ignore it until the next to the last episode this season. Book readers will obviously know more. I think this should also be done b/c AB & Co. has changed a lot from the books to the show 4 seasons in, so at this point it's any reader's guess to how things will play out. /m2c

haha, yes the matching robes were pretty dumb.

Don't get me wrong, this show is terrible but that finale wasn't all that bad. At least Russell's back, Tara's dead (hopefully), and that scene with Eric/Bill was pretty bad ass.

I only casually watch while my wife has it on but what happened with Jason and the werepanther/ghost daddy story? Did they just drop that story line after he stayed up the whole night with Jessica? I can't remember, did they all die somehow or what?

^thank God.

do they each own their own robe? or because eric was at bill's, did he borrow one of bill's? if so, how was it that bill's robe would fit eric? eric is much taller than bill.

i know vampires have a lot of powers, but i didn't know custom on-the-spot tailoring was one of them."

As much as I would love it, I'm pretty sure Tara isn't dead. I feel as if she is too major of a character for them to kill her off like that. She'll probably be saved by one of the vampires or will somehow come back or turn out to be be non-human and thus somehow able to survive or something like that.

I did kind of like Jesus though, he was a good bf for Lafayette.

talking about things that are drastically different from the books is one thing, talking about things that haven't happened yet... (referring to Pikey's post on the previous page) is something else altogether.

If you go back through this entire thread, you see that one of the reasons the other thread was created was to keep book related talk out of this thread. Some of us are big fans of the show and like to read about and discuss what is canon for the show. A lot of us don't want to know what could possibly happen. And even if something in the earlier books hasn't come up yet, that doesn't mean it won't in the future.

Some of us don't even watch the previews because whoever edits them is an idiot and spoils the cliffhanger in the preview.

So I'm asking, please don't talk about the book in this thread, particularly things that haven't even remotely happened yet. This is pretty par for the entertainment section. And if you absolutely are unwilling to accommodate, at least use spoiler tags (which is expected in the entertainment section). And no, there are no rules on the internet... but that doesn't mean you're not being a dick by ignoring what has already been established over the past few years amongst the people who have regularly read and posted in this thread.

you guys are getting your panties in a wad over a television show about vampires. do you get this upset over in the soap box, or is social justice and freedom just not your thing?

Who gives a fuck. It's been proven that the TV show barely has anything to do with the books. It isn't spoiling anything.

Calm yourselves the fuck down.

So what's it take to get suspended by a mod in entertainment? Apparently blatantly ignoring their requests won't do it...

Using book discussion to speculate what's going to happen from here is the only thing to do in this thread for a year.

Unless of course, you'ld like to spend a year talking about how much the show sucks now and compare it to when it was exactly the same show a year ago.

And the year before that.

And the year before that.

Over the past six weeks I have watched all four seasons (never watched it before that). I have come to the conclusion that my favorite favorite characters are Pam and Jessica. Does anyone else think Pam is hot? Maybe it's just the shit she says.

I wish Pam had a bigger role in the show... in season 4 she became a little less one-dimensional, more vulnerable.

So I am finally getting to see season 4 thanks to my cousin and her generous gift of her login for HBOGo. I guess the only good thing about the season being completely over is that I can watch the shows back to back.

What a bunch of fucking weird shit going on. I purposely did not read any of the thread the last little bit just so I would not spoil it when I finally got to view it.

Anyway...BUMP!

I'm almost done with the 2nd Season of True Blood. Maybe I'll be caught up in time for the new season start date.
