Half Truth

I’d say I’m a casual fan of True Blood. I don’t feel the need to watch it each week, but I care enough to keep up. What I cannot keep up with is the crazy fandom. Apparently, the books (which I really do want to read) go off in even crazier directions than the show and Sookie ends up in quite a few romances (or possible romances). Since I’ve not read them yet, I’m still all about Bill and Sookie. I don’t get the overwhelming love for Eric, nor do I see any Eric/Lafayette AT ALL. I mean I’m as much a slash fan as anyone, but it’s just.not.there. Also? How can you not appreciate Bill with his Civil War era speech when he says things like this, “ARE YOU GONNA LEAVE OR AM I GONNA HAVE TO THROW YOU OUT…. THROUGH A WINDOW…. THAT IS CLOSED!”

I can name several “flaws” of the show, but they’re minor apart from the fact that many people miss big moments because the lighting is so off. I know things happen at night (especially when dealing with vampires), but the scenes could be just a little bit lighter, no?

I’m very interested to learn more about Barry now. This was meant to be the big “reveal” (or so they say), and without spoiling myself too much too soon, I can’t really snoop around to find out his significance. Drats!

  1. So DListed says that Ensign Ro is a maenad. I kinda thought. based on the one ep we watched with the pseudo-orgy at the bar and all the food she ordered, that she was something along those lines. Those things are are a gigantic pain.
    :skull:

    1. I was like, “WTF, who?” But yeah, she is. I just finished the first two books and the show is taking TONS of liberties with the events in the books…on all accounts. 😆 Since Tara doesn’t even exist in the books (though there is a character briefly mentioned named Tara), the whole thing is just show canon.

      I’m enjoying the books and understanding the fandom a lot more now.

      1. As long as the liberties are done well and keep with the tone of the books I don’t have much issue with adaptions. And snerk, I’m such a misogynist “Those things”
        😆 .
