I think he's skilled I just don't think he likes doing it. I believe he's a self-hating shape-shifter. Once he found out there was another one is when he started to let loose and run free. Too bad about Daphne. I never understood her coming into Bon Temps, being a shape-shifter and being under Maryann's spell. Did Maryann 'make' her come to Bon Temps? Was she even a real shape-shifter?
She freely gave herself to Maryann and it seems, based on how Daphne was acting towards Maryann before Eggs killed her, they were lovers. But that could be my "Lesbian Goggles" which see Lesbians everywhere. Anyway, she said that Maryann had very little, if any, control over supernatural beings and that they had to come to her of their own free will and give in. Sam never gave into Maryann and that's why she's after him.

Yes, Daphne had to have given herself freely. Sam, on the other hand, isn't about to give himself to her! I don't blame him! She'll rip his heart out, then make a souffle out of it!

I'm also re-watching Season 1 and Sam goes off about Werewolves about how thier filthy and evil and it got me thinking
This show is what HEROES wished it could be
A story of people will superpowers and how the non-superpowered world has to deal with it

Fantastic!! Hilarious to see Tara taking another beating, and Lafayette kicking more ass. Didn't care much for the Godric/Jesus character...
"We are fighting for Christmas, Easter eggs.." Loved Nan Flanagan's reaction.
Same here. Enjoyed her brief scene with William Sanderson.
I'm guessing that it would have been too tongue-in-cheek if they showed Andy watching the very early Dirty Jobs episode with Mike Rowe knee deep in Bat guano. Hope Andy learns of Sam's shapeshifting abilities.
Season's gone way too fast...
