True Blood: WHAT IS THIS I DON'T EVEN!

Oh, True Blood. Just because I haven't seen it before, doesn't mean I ever needed to. The pacing is just so crazy off this season. I felt overwhelmed, crushed under an unpleasant pile of weirdness and one of Sookie's worst plans ever! Ah well, there are bound to be some... well, it wasn't exactly a stinker so much as it was BZUH?!

Feeling el crapola lately. I hate having a defunct brain, I hate it even more when it prevents me from doing even the fun stuff. Sighs.

Peace, Ghani

El crapola...I know the feeling. It sucks when your brain won't let you enjoy the fun stuff.

Re: TB

According to the newest issue of "TV Guide," Bill has cheated on Sookie with Lorena. Is that the BZUH?! you're speaking of? If so, well, of COURSE they're doing something like that, because of supposedly overwhelming fan sentiment that Eric is DA MAN for Sookie, because he's tall and blonde and shit. (We get it. The man is hot. Big fucking deal!) Still, it doesn't make me too enthusiastic for S3.

Hugs! Ah, I wish you didn't have to know the feeling, but I know you do, so... huge hugs. For both of us, LOL!

Cheating? Really? That's all they had to say about it because... yeah. It was disturbing, and awful. And it was meant to be. Bill has basically been backed into a situation, thanks to Lorena (who could have her head ripped off onscreen and used as a basketball at this point and I'd cheer, and not in a good way--I just want her to go away, and want it to be as painful as possible) where he was forced to renounce his fealty to Sophie-Anne and his devotion to Sookie. This is keeping Sookie safe as the king of Mississippi, so pleased with this, drops Lorena completely, whom he was previously using to get at Bill; one of the arrangements she made with the king was to be able to watch Sookie die. But now that Bill's loyal to him, he's dismissed Lorena (aaahhh, suck it, bitch!)

So, she still comes to his room to gloat. Bill's having a nervous breakdown. At first he starts attacking her (he's already set her on fire once that night), and then in an act of desperation and aggression and violence, he throws her down on the bed, rips her dress open and starts, well... And it looks like he's trying his best to hurt her. So when she starts moaning and whatnot, he actually (now this was the BZUH?! part) took her head in his hands and twisted it. Like, 180 degrees. She burbles out a disgusting goop of blood and a "I love you so, William," which makes him scream in horror. One gets the feeling that a great deal of their "relationship" was like this, especially in the later years.

I have a theory. I have a theory that Bill is not in fact working for Sophie-Anne as he is in the books, and they're playing on fans' expectations of that. That his research on what Sookie is, which was found in his home office, was because he was looking into turning her, to try to protect her. Because the king of Mississippi asks him why he doesn't, and his anguished reply of "I can't" meant more to me than just he wouldn't because of the obvious moral dilemmas.

Sighs. Alcide the werewolf's introduction was so rushed and botched, and I think that's suffering from the 'ZOMG, Eric is teh perfect 4 Sookie!' If you're a good guy, you're gonna lose. thanks for that lesson, True Blood! xP

Boy, that is TWISTED. And I completely agree with you about Lorena -- I loathe that creature, and when Bill sent her packing last season, I all but said aloud, "And never come back again!" But of course they do bring her back.

And yes, it does look like he "has sex with her" to hurt her. Unfortunately, Lorena apparently likes being hurt. Sicko bitch. GO AWAY! Gimme more Pam, I love her...and LESS LORENA! As in, NO LORENA!

I read the EWwwwwwwwww.com article you linked to. I gave up on EWwwwwwwwwwwww years ago (eight years ago, to be precise) but I don't mind reading occasional articles online. Of course they put in a dig at Bill: "He's so much more interesting now." Bleah, I'm so sick of "Bill is such a wet blanket." Maybe he's not full of snark like "sexy bad boy" Eric, but IMO he's plenty interesting.

The TV Guide article in which they said that Bill cheated on Sookie with Lorena was a mini-interview with the actress who plays Lorena.
