nije baš teen.... prebrutalna je.... sex i krv

opsjednuta sam serijom

The setting. Bon Temps, Louisiana is, as all of us non-Southerners (and proud) already think, a microcosm for how things are done in the South. And, if you live in the South, let me let you in on what non-Southerners think of your playground: You all have domesticated retard accents and live in a part of the world that thinks it’s still 50 years ago. Also, you’re all dumb as bricks and isn’t Jamie Lynn Spears the vampire Queen of Louisiana? Now, let the intelligent discourse with the rest of America begin!But seriously, all of that and more is why the setting of True Blood works so brilliantly. This show couldn’t survive in a New York setting and while it probably could survive in a place like California, it’d be a different beast all together. And the surface of things it’d slide down would probably be a Bret Easton Ellis vehicle (starring Amber Heard!).Sookie Stackhouse. Someone once told me that your ultimate main protagonist for a multi-character piece should be primarily a cipher with only the occasional flashes of personality. Anna Paquin accomplishes such a task both gracefully and, at times, elegantly. Also with quite a bit of nudity. In fact, the whole show is just filthy with dirty sex, a point I can’t stress nearly enough.Bill Compton. Sookie’s undead lover and neighbor, and Paquin’s real life fiance. Even though Bill, played Stephen Moyer, has a very creepy and mean look on his face most of the time, in reality, he’s actually fantastically emo. And not even in a brooding David Boreanaz/Angel kind of way, but more in a mopey and dopey and kind of way. If Sookie could hear Bill’s thoughts, it’d probably be him muttering, “I do not know what I’m doing” and “Boy, I feel stupid right now” over and over again, just in a silly accent.Eric Northman, played by Stellan Skarsgard’s son, and Vampire Sheriff of “Area Five” and the owner/manager of the vampire bar Fangtasia in Shreveport (and sooner or later, bound to reveal an affection for Sookie a la Spike from Buffy). I’ll say that again: Fangtasia. The place looks like a Disneyfied Vampire McMuseum crossbred with a S&M parlor. As Bill tells us early in season 1, when referring to the bar’s name, in vampire culture, puns are considered the highest form of sophisticated humor. I told you that vampire culture was amazing! Speaking of which…Music. The show’s musical selections work nicely, mixing the typical bar band bullshit that’s appropriate setting with an effective score (I really like the misguided love theme/Let’s Get High! score for Jason and Amy). Each episode typically gets it’s title from whatever song is playing towards the end of it, but more importantly, when it comes to the vampires, I love that they all seem to have the worst taste in music. Bill, especially, who seems to listen to weird world music, including one scene where his driving music with Sookie is bad Norwegian throat gargle pop. And Eric likes to take baths while listening to old Swedish love songs.Vampire blood, or V-Juice. When a human is injured, drinking the blood of a vampire can provide nearly instantaneous healing properties. It’ll also drastically increase your senses, your libido, and send you briefly sailing into a fantasy world of hallucinations. So, of course, it makes a wonderful drug.Sam Merlotte, owner of Merlotte’s, and Sookie’s boss and the holder of a mostly unrequited crush on our heroine. Sam has a secret he only reluctantly reveals to Sookie towards the end of the first season: He’s a shapeshifter, capable of copying just about any animal he can see, but he prefers dogs, mostly because “everyone likes dogs.” Personally, I don’t think you can trust a guy named Sam because they’re typically shifty geeks, but this one’s alright. He’s also briefly secretly fucking…Tara Thornton, Sookie’s best friend since they were kids. Tara’s the kind of girl that’d rather not let anyone get close and in doing that, she tends to let her mouth run away from her. She bounces from relationship to relationship and job to job, the only constant in her life being her friendship with Sookie and the idea that she’s fucked up and always will. Briefly finds a little bit of inner peace when she undergoes an exorcism involving ipecac and peyote and knifes a fantasty version of herself as a little girl to death. Then finds another brief bout of inner peace when hooking up with the mysterious Maryann.Lafayette. Lafayette is easily one of my top favorite characters on this show, a man who’s into everything and almost everyone and too often seems too smart for the rest of this show. Lafayette works at Merlotte’s at night as a short order cook, works on a maintenance crew during the day, and is also Bon Temp’s primary V-juice dealer and male prostitute. And Tara’s cousin. In a lot of ways, Lafayette kind of reminds me of Sayid on Lost. If people listened to him more often then perhaps shit would run just a little smoother.Jason Stackhouse, Sookie’s brother, and the town’s number one male bimbo. His primary talents appear to be drinking, putting his dick in any woman that moves across his field of vision, and being a bit on the stupid side. In season one, he’s the focus of the investigation into the murders since all the dead girls are related to him (usually because he was fucking them). He then goes on to become a V-addict and possibly find love with the gorgeous and sociopathic Lizzy Caplan. Ah, Janice Ian is all grown up. Unfortunately, despite her carbon footprint being minuscule, she’s killed off both here and in Cloverfield, and will hopefully stay alive into the second season of Party Down, where she’s fantastic.Jason falls into something like slot 5 or 6 of my favorite characters on this show just because of how amazing dumb he is. It makes perfect fodder for idiot adventures! Trying to make something good of his life after the fuck ups he lives through in season 1, as of season 2, he’s trying to find enlightenment (as of where I am so far) in Texas with the anti-vampire church called The Fellowship Of The Sun. He comes off as pretty much every other dumb Christian jock you’ve ever been forced to talk to, and where I am in the episode order now, he’s also about to fuck the minister’s wife too. It’s good to have you back, Jason.Jessica, the girl Bill was forced to turn into a vampire by his elders. She’s his “daughter,” or “progeny.” He’s her “maker” or “sire.” There’s an interesting exploration into what’s it like for a human to experience the turning into a creature of the night, the explosion of hormones and sensations and confusion that comes with it. But mostly, when I look at Jessica, I think: Hot, evil ginger. Is she seeing anyone?Michelle Forbes. There needs to be some kind of rule of understanding that any semi-decent genre show or show that people can get seriously hardcore nerdy about will someday be blessed with the presence of Michelle Forbes. And would be lucky to have such presence. In fact, the only holdout to this rule is The X-Files, which could have seriously benefited from Ensign Ro putting in an appearance, you know what I mean?“When someone offers you an entrance where you are standing naked with a pig, you don’t say no.”-Michelle Forbes, on why she accepted the role of Maryanne on True Blood. So true. So very true.To appropriate a Buffy term, Michelle Forbes is the “Big Bad” during season 2 of True Blood, a mysterious woman with an almost satanic kindness and understanding of people. She likes to lift people up, and throw wild parties that turn into bacchanals and orgies. She thinks in Latin monologues and does this sexy vibrating thing that can only be bad news for those around her. She’s got a mysterious past with Sam Merlotte and though they haven’t revealed it yet where I am in season 2, it’s only inevitable that they show us that she’s a maenad, one of the raging women who followed Dionysus and killed Orpheus. But man, those ladies knew how to throw a party. Hell, this entire show knows how to throw a party.
^^ morah ovo prikeljit iako je na englskom :Dma razumijemo se mi

Dobre slikice, čak izgleda dobro serija. Jel to igra na TV-u?

Koliko znam - ne.

Sazad ima 3. sezone

Pogledala sam od 3. sezone 6 epizoda - još mi ostalo 6.
