Somebody should make a  :nelson: with a yarmulke on his head for occasions like this.
To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?

Season opener was as much :bleeding: as it looked from the trailer, but I still think it's gone off the deep end. We'll see how it turns out I suppose...
True Blood's season openers have never been very good, except the very first episode of the series... Well, I was in for quite a shock.  Being used to cable tv shows and going to that...
I'm hopeful this season will turn out better than this week's episode wich was boring, and oh so predictable.

I suppose I will watch anyway if it's crap.

Typo, I meant "wasn't" but yeah, it certainly wasn't the high light of the show.  :D

True Blood is rapidly turning into Supernatural. But I guess it's necessary because Supernatural was turning pretty stale with every episode being a new monster hunt and not really going anywhere. Eventually you probably also run out of excuses to film Paquin's tits, and have to actually add some sort of development.

True Blood?

Yeah...it's been going downhill since season two. Season one presented us with a nice premise, but since then it's been ...meh! Vampires were one thing, but now we have shape shifters and witches and whatever those were in S.2 and werewolves and fucking faeries. It's really become just a show for teenage girls

and gays.

The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

Does sound kind of interesting.
Though they gave away the entire film in that trailer.

It's not a film, it's a show.  The logo at the end is NBC's.  ;)

Knowing NBC they'll fuck it up and cancel it before it goes a full season. :(

I keep watching True Blood. S4 1st episode had some cool bits, and lots to hate. Part of Liking that show is done by thrashing it with your friends. I will watch the whole season complaining bitterly the whole time about whatever stupid storyline they get Tara involved in.
:p

Should just be a movie, though.  I cannot see this lasting for all that long.

What TV needs to bring back is those Mystery Movie shows where three shows alternated in a weekly 90 minute slot.  You could do this show really well in, say, a season's worth of 8 ninety-minute episodes, and not lose the benefit of advertising the uber-show when you pull the plug on a sub-show that has told its story.
The future is all around us, waiting, in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.   -G'Kar

:yes: I used to love when they rotated Columbo, McCloud and I think it was McMillan & Wife.

Banacek was good, as was the one with Art Carney and the rabbi.  Quincy, of course, became its own show, but was better in smaller doses, IMO.

I'll never forgive them for how they handled Kings.  Bastards. :mad:
