Thanks ZZ! I’m totally hooked to TB. I just purchased all the books Last Sunday and I’m on book #6 already. Love it!!! It’s almost laughable the way all the men/supes flock to that girl in the book. It’s like she has a magic cooter box or something.

I appreciate the way AB keeps us on our toes and doesn’t follow the books exactly. I just hope he doesn’t go off on a tangent with some random character from the book like he did with Maryanne. Or at least make it worth our while. I was so over that storyline! And the cast is a wonderful array of actors……not too bad on the eyes either! =)

Great read KF! I’m new to this site and I absolutely adore it! A lot of intelligent writing and great opinions (such as yours) makes it a really enjoyable place to come and feed my TB addiction. =)

LOL….we have learned to duck when you throw your books at us. And you KNOW….we love picking every little detail apart. Again, great read KF.

I have read some of the books – I am with CE here – liked the first 2 books. I also could not get the in depth on the clothing, hair or music – yuk! I also did not like CH’s stance with Bill. I don’t think she clarified him enough and concentrated on Eric. She has since said that she does not understand why readers do not see that Eric has evil in him and that she does not understand why readers don’t like Bill – eh! maybe because she wrote them that way! I can’t stand the Bookies saying “Read the books – you will hate Bill and Love Eric”! WRONG!! I love Bill -book Bill and TV Bill. I don’t want to know what is in store – I like the surprises that AB has for us. He may say “oh yes, I will be doing that” but when it comes on the screen, it really has a different slant! I love that!! I love his quirkiness and I love the characters on the screen! TV Sookie is much better than the book version, who I thought was a bit of a skank. As AB has said when he said that he will veer away from the books – “More power to the Bookies! They will have the books and the TV series!”.

Loved your article and the captions on the photos! Well done KF! I enjoyed your take.

Can’t call myself a bookie, although having read all the books I am informed about what happens in CH’s world. I do enjoy the fact that I realize when things have diverged from books – makes it all the more interesting when I know that it’s TB writers and not CH moving the figures around the chessboard.

Thank you again KF for writing such an awesome article. I wish we could make it mandatory reading for several of the folks out in the True Blood Sookieverse.

Sorry TC, Han shot first in the original. They tried to soften it up in the ‘remastered’ version to make Han look more sympathetic. Piffle.

Thanks for sparking the geek in us KF!
