I'm not sure I could post my co-worker's biscuits either...

Come on, obviously it's a water tunnel to the island of LOST. Jack may have saved the light from the MIB, but now the Vampires want in on it.

Re: True Blood -- "Hitting the Ground" -- 08/01/10
 

Ahh I see :) That's way it pissed me off. It most have reminded me of how disappointing the end of Lost was.

Re: True Blood -- "Hitting the Ground" -- 08/01/10
 

That was the only bad thing about this ep., Sookie's cheesy dream that looked like it should be an Enya or Lorenna McKennit video. I know what they were trying for, but just because they can doesn't mean they should.

Re: True Blood -- "Hitting the Ground" -- 08/01/10
 

While the dream was a little cheesy, atleast it did serve its purpose and give more information on her character and on her background as well.

Re: True Blood -- "Hitting the Ground" -- 08/01/10
 

It really didn't. It made no sense.
Maybe it does if you read the books, but I didn't.

Re: True Blood -- "Hitting the Ground" -- 08/01/10
 

Even if you didnt read the books, it should make sense. Go back and rewatch the episode. There are a few key scenes before the dream happens to add more to the mystery of who/what Sookie is. And then during the dream sequence theres some information that is slowly revealed about her parents and then she has been "there" before. I'm sure things will be clearer in the next few episodes.

Re: True Blood -- "Hitting the Ground" -- 08/01/10
 

Absolutely. They are not going to end this season without revealing that for sure. Damn, Debbie Pelt is just such a loathsome creature. I was a little surprised there was no Franklin Mott in this episode, but then it did end at the sundown after they escaped. Tara's non-decapitating-head-bashing is probably still giving him a little bit of a headache. Poor Zeljko Ivanek. He always seems to get bumped off every show he's on.

Pretty good ep :up:

Highlights:

-Sam turned into a sweet ass Pit Bull. That dog was gorgeous.
-Debbie...the actress that played her did a great job in that opening scene.
-The King...He's just awesome. I love him.
-The Queen with The King....Sophie's childish manners go well with The King's smug demeanor.
-Erik and Pam together again...YEAHEEAAHHA!!!
-Sam saving Tommy... Pretty cool to have family that cares
-That Summer chick....I'm in love with her and I didn't even need her cooking.


Lo's:

-No Jessica...come on! Really?
-Lorenna's death...I loved Lorenna and I'll miss her dearly
-ep Run time....come on! Really?

I really hope they build up the inevitable showdown with Eric and Russell. But FWIW, we have no solid evidence aside from the crown that he is the one Eric seeks. The individual who raided his home was cloaked, so it might very well be another.

Re: True Blood -- "Hitting the Ground" -- 08/01/10
 

I think the use of werewolves with Russell's brand is also a clue.

[Jason Stackhouse] Good point [/Jason Stackhouse]

Where have you been lately Mr. Marvel? You've become a rarity in these parts. ;)

Re: True Blood -- "Hitting the Ground" -- 08/01/10
 

I had to read that post again. I was like, "Russell Brand was in this ep?!" :lol:

Re: True Blood -- "Hitting the Ground" -- 08/01/10
 

Justified is on hiatus, so I don't feel the need to point out how hot Natalie Zea is every week. Although I feel compelled to do the same with Jessica on this show now.

Re: True Blood -- "Hitting the Ground" -- 08/01/10
 

I remember thinking it sounded like Talbot. In fact, I thought they were trying to make that really clear. Maybe I'm just remembering it wrong.

Re: True Blood -- "Hitting the Ground" -- 08/01/10
 

Below is a link to an interview with the actor that plays Alcide. Be warned though, there are SPOILERS in the interview!

That would actually be pretty cool, if nothing else Talbot could be discovered as the culprit at the last minute, he gets whacked, and we get to keep Russell around! :D

Re: True Blood -- "Hitting the Ground" -- 08/01/10
 

Okay, I was just in the check-out aisle and saw the new TV Guide that had a cover story on True Blood and whether people were team Eric of Bill. They had two different covers that had Anna Paquin with one of the respective actors. In each photo both actors had his hand more or less on her ass. Guess it's hard to resist copping a feel on her.

Re: True Blood -- "Hitting the Ground" -- 08/01/10
 

Just watched the episode. Was anyone else annoyed with Tara's plan to take down Alcide's ex? Her bright idea was to distract her by having Sookie scream. The only problem with this was she was already looking in the opposite direction and when Sookie screamed her focus turned to the two of them. Seemed a bit counterproductive to me.
