a lot...wow! 54 comments! that might be a record :)<br /><br />a lot of people keep comparing Bill to Angel and Eric to Spike, the parallels are pretty obvious in many ways than one except for sex, where - so to speak Bill is more Spike (wild, dirt and blood everywhere...) and Eric is more Angel (very tender and romantic) That 'love making' at the end of an episode was unlike any other sex scenes in True Blood. <br /><br />Sam was so spot on Tommy. Not only the voice but gestures and manner of walking - simply great. <br /><br />Loved the episode.

I wanted to a...Wow, this article has many comments. I wanted to add my thoughts on the following review paragraph (as I wanted to explain to myself after watching the episode): <br />"After lying to the Authority to get Eric condemned to death, Bill changed his mind and let him go. Maybe Bill's full moon transformation was that he stopped being a jerk. Or maybe he's just still in love with Sookie. Bill knew that if he killed Eric, Sookie would never forgive him. I can't quite believe that he felt pity for Eric. Not after burying him in cement last season."<br /><br />I actually think it may not be any of those (sorry, Billie) - the way I took it: Bill is not a bad guy, and if he does certain things is because <i><b>he believes </b></i> they are the right things to do. He hated Eric and he was convinced he would hurt Sookie. And when he captured Eric - he thought Eric was faking the amnesia (mastered lying over 1000 years) - but when he realized that Eric truly did not remember - he could not kill him because Eric in front of him was not Eric that he hated and felt all other stuff for. For him killing Eric then would have been just killing some guy that Sookie just met and fell for - he was not evil to do that - that's what stopped him. I think he already had a resolve that if protecting Sookie meant not to be with her - so be it - so he would have killed "old" Eric to protect her despite what she thought (he tried that before). It's is this "new" Eric he could not kill. (which made me feel good about Bill).Banastalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17404758216804317890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-56959170528527813072011-08-06T12:51:10.883-04:002011-08-06T12:51:10.883-04:00I hadn't thought about dinner party guests!

Tyler treated Vicki shittily but I really don't put his behaviour in the woods as high as attempted rape. Drunk asshole teenager coming on far too strong with the girl he's sleeping with is more like it. If Jeremy hadn't interrupted, maybe it would have been worse but we don't know that. Vicki certainly wasn't overly bothered by it. I think his lack of respect for her, the way he insulted her and was ashamed of her was far worse treatment. Equally, the abuse Matt gives to his girlfriend Caroline and the appalling way Damon treated Caroline and his other compelled lovers is far more repellant to me than Tyler's oversexed attempts to screw Vicki in the woods.Erishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14972548668482540841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-11052437399126158572011-08-03T12:42:29.121-04:002011-08-03T12:42:29.121-04:00I think we need a separate post on dateable and se...I think we need a separate post on dateable and sexy characters!

Characters I would date:
1. F...Oh, I'm SO in!<br /><br />Characters I would date:<br /><br />1. Friday Night Lights - Coach Taylor, although it's hard to imagine him without Tami so maybe I should go for Matt Saracen instead. They're both SUCH good men. And I love how even though they can both be quiet or inarticulate, when they're with their women, they talk away non-stop. <br /><br />2. Due South - Benton Fraser. Again, such a good man. Good-looking, intelligent, educated, morally upright. And sweet.<br /><br />3. Gilmore Girls - Luke. He's grouchy but good-hearted and he cooks wonderfully. And he is not averse to incredibly talkative women, whatever he might say.<br /><br />4. Supernatural - Dean Winchester. He's a problematic one because unless he loved me as much as he loves Sammy, there'd be endless difficulties. Plus, he kind of has a death wish a lot of the time. But he's a good guy underneath all the angst and trouble. <br /><br />5. Vampire Diaries - Tyler Lockwood. Tyler started out as seemingly a total asshole but his backstory and his 'condition' have made him into a much nicer character. It doesn't hurt that he spends so much time with everyone's favourite baby-vamp, Caroline! I would marry Tyler in a heartbeat. Love him!<br /><br />Honourable mentions:<br /><br />Deadwood - Seth Bullock; The West Wing - Josh Lyman; Mal Reynolds - Firefly; Highlander - Methos; Battlestar Galactica - Helo; Wesley Wyndham-Pryce - Angel.<br /><br />Characters I'm wildly attracted to but would never date:<br /><br />1. True Blood - Eric. True Blood vamps are just too different to humans. They feel much more like a different species than the vamps on Vampire Diaries.<br /><br />2. Vampire Diaries - Damon. He still hasn't made the shift into doing good for good's sake instead of for Elena or for some other manipulative reason. Plus, what he did to human Caroline is shudder-worthy.<br /><br />3. Being Human - Mitchell. I love Mitchell, he's absolutely wonderful and he was trying so hard. But he's too much of a wildcard. I would never feel safe with him.<br /><br />4. ROME - Lucius Vorenus. He's far too tightly wound and when he lets go, it's frightening.<br /><br />5. Veronica Mars - Logan Echolls. Aside from his tendency to rush out and sleep with other people five seconds after any kind of rejection, his penchant for violence is off-putting. I would never imagine Logan hitting me, were I to date him, but I really don't like the idea that he would assault other people for doing things he disliked or hurting people he loved. <br /><br />Honourable mentions:<br /><br />Buffy - Spike; Coupling - Patrick; Supernatural - Castiel; Dollhouse - Paul; The Tudors - Charles Brandon.Erishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14972548668482540841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-14167226782911976782011-08-03T12:08:14.524-04:002011-08-03T12:08:14.524-04:00My top 5

In the book, they had at least gotten almost that far much before, and the chemistry between the two of them could only lead to that. I love Eric. He's intense, straight, sarcastic, charming and he'll do whatever he has to in order to protect or get what he wants. The new Eric is almost as loveable, especially because little by little, he will get a little of his old self. And he never lied to Sookie. And he almost got killed to protect her (and get his vengeance at the same time). Either way, I too want to make my list (which is not necessarily in this order):<br />1. Sayid (Lost)<br />2. Damon Salvatore (VD) - women sometimes have a tendency to try to fix the unfixeable<br />3. Alcide Herveaux(True Blood)<br />4. Derek Morgan (Criminal Minds)<br />5. NuEric Northman - but maybe that much sweetness could turn me into a diabetic...<br />Either way,thank you, Billie.

I <i>adored</i> Wesley, but he was some serious damaged goods and I doubt he'd be good dating material for anyone but Fred! :)Jess Lyndehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14165015932507376656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-15468738460227300302011-08-03T07:45:05.887-04:002011-08-03T07:45:05.887-04:00Okay, here we go:
