eric northman is da man!

The first episode really sucked until Eric showed up! AND IT WAS THE VERY END OF THE EPISODE! I freaking watched the whole 55 minutes of crap and then the last minute the exquisite vampire showed up with his unfinished highlights, tin foil in between his goldilocks and his huge appetite! That's what I call a vampire.

I truly don't care about Sookie/Bill, really. How cheesy and fake that "I love you" scene was!? I know they're a real life couple and all, but dude, I'm so sorry, I just can't see the chemistry between Bill and Sookie! Even Jessica and Sookie had more sparks than Bill (I'm not counting the sex scene. It was good. GOOOODD.)

BUT ERIC! OH ERIC! How dare you make my metrosexual vampire get up from his tedious process of getting highlights!? YOU SHALL BE BROKEN INTO LITTLE PIECES AND EATEN! and that's what he did. ♥

haha. I love Eric/Sookie in the books, but I'm worried that by making Eric the cause of Lafayette's (a much loved character) suffering, that the show is setting him up to be disliked. Idk... I hope that we get the same awesomeness of the books though.

I'm oh so fine with the suffering of any kind in that show! Vampires have to be wild and cruel at some point, right? Bill is the ultimate gentleman but whatever.. I really want to read the books, but I want to skip the Bill/Sookie parts too, it's just too much work!

hahaha. In the books, Bill/Sookie are pretty much over by the end of book 3. But yeah, the author keeps on keeping the hope of Bill/Sookie fans alive by inserting lines and scenes that give them hope that they could get back together. Bill is truly reprehensible in the books though, imo.

yeah i know, he was actually the bad guy in the books (well sorta, from what I've heard..)
Maybe I should skip the first 3 book and ask you guys to summarize it for me, then read the glorious Eric/Sookie ♥

haha. The 2nd book has like 2 good Eric/Sookie moments and the 3rd book has a few great moments too. Book 3 is when we get to see Bill for the ass he truly is. Uuuuugh. I hate Bill so much. As a whole the series is a really fun read. It gets ridiculous at times, but it's still a lot of fun.

I'm shipping Lafayette/Eric. I'm hoping they don't stick 100% true to the books, since the characters are already a little different and it would b a shame not to explore all the available possibilities.

I heard Lafayette/Eric was coming up very soon!

LOL! I know, badass Eric and definitely shame on them for interrupting his highlights. XD

<3333

I've seen everything but a bad ass vampire getting highlights was absolutely refreshing!
I wish we could have seen Spike getting his hair bleached in Buffy too!! =))

LOL Definitely! :D

I LOVE ERIC SO FREAKING MUCH!

I'm biased against Bill/Sookie because of the books, but, yeah, that "I love you" scene REALLY didn't work for me.

LOL I'm biased against them because YOU'RE BIASED! You poisoned me against Bill/Sookie while you were reading the books! =)) But I definitely don't complain because what is hotter than Eric/Sookie!??!
I watched a sneak peek for season 2 and don't remember the whole thing but Eric was telling Bill that he can get Sookie whenever he wants, which made me go "YESS!!" with so much joy!

HAHA! I'm sorry! I must learn to control my psychic powers! ;)

AWESOME! I knew Eric/Sookie hasn't really gotten much screentime together, but they would be SO HOT!
