According to several people here, well....everything.

For me, if she turned down the whining and turned back up the "fuck you ya gah-damn bitch" snarkiness she had in season 1, she'd be A-OK in my book.

I just loved the way she told people off. It wasn't clever wordplay or anything, it was just blunt and straight-forward and that was all it needed to be.

^ Exactly. I liked the Tara sassy, not whiny and sad.

Eric calling Lafayette "RuPaul"

Im probably the only person that noticed that the actor that played Chip was from the movie "Monster Man" (which I thought that a awesome fucking movie!)

Biker Sookie looked deliciously trashy!

Damn, Pam looked GOOD!

Overall, another good episode but my only complaint with this season is that there's no real storyline. Were already 1/3 of the way through the season, and we dont really have anything. Season one had the mystery of who was doing all the killings and season 2 had Maryann as the main storyline w/ the FotS as the secondary story. This season so far is just "happening as it goes." Sure we have the introductions of the were's and Russell, but hopefully something develops soon.

Pretty solid episode. Seems to be setting up Russell as the main villain for the season.

Really liked this ep. It seemed to have all the finer aspects of this show in play. Great dialogue, interesting characters (which seems to be growing in number), and the general fucked up shit I expect from this kind of setting.

I don't care how they seem to be turning Tara into a damsel in distress, but other than that, I think this season is moving rather well. I also think the Post Mortem was an important part, even if it was an addendum. I really feel they kicked things into gear this week, hope it keeps its pace.

On a side note that's somewhat unrelated, having seen her dress similarly in Justified, Kristen Bauer (Pam) looks really good in tight pants.

About halfway through this past season. I'm pretty sure she was the woman in the ep. with the horsefarm, where she wore some tight jodphurs.

EDIT: Oops. Wrong, she was apparently in the second ep. of the season. Guess it was a different actress as well, but both looked good in tight pants, regardless!

I doubt anyone has a screen cap as it was a quick shot, but there was one tonight where she was tied in the contraption with her butt to camera. Blink and you'll miss it!


Maybe IMDB had the Justified listing wrong(if she's in the one I'm thinking). It was the one about an are collection, and would make sense as she is a horseback rider in real life.

Yeah she was in Justified. It took me about half a second to recognize her. And it wasn't the one with horses and art. It was the one where the guy his money from a robbery before getting sent to prison.

1) thats when I fell in love w/ Kristin Baeur :lol I might be able to get a screen cap of that tomorrow.

2) It was the second episode of the season. It was the episode where the guy escaped from jail to reunite w/ his ex wife and find his stashed money.

Here's an image of her I found searching on google.

So far it's the greatest show on earth compared to season 1 and 2 so I say keep it up.

Nice image. . I remember that ep of Justified. I think she was either the criminal's ex or the wife who found the money and used it for boob job. So Draven, I take it you're an ass man as well when it comes to the deciding factor if a woman is worth your time.

I have no idea what's going on with Bill. Why can't he leave?

To protect Sookie, Bill made some sort of oath of loyalty to stay.

I thought it was cool that the song that was playing while Bill was in the strip club towards the end was the theme music for the UK show, Luther.

I think this season has a storyline, albeit a bit more complex
Spoiler:
It's all about the vampires, who's been dealing V and why. Eric, and previously Godric, have been trying to find out since WWII who has been giving werewolves V which has now been uncovered as the King of Mississippi. This is the guy who has Bill captive and is trying to gain control over more territories but as to what purpose is not known.

Yea, I guess that would be a good way to look at it. I guess I kinda ruined it for myself by reading all the books, so I'm expecting certain things to happen differently.

She was also in one of my favorite comedies, Romy and Michelle's High school Reunion.
