    Yep. Don't see how they will get any new viewers. If you haven't been following this from the beginning (or close to it), there's no way you can keep up w/ all the BS.

    Lots of stuff happening, but I'm not sure where it's taking us.

    The Tara/Jessica dynamic and the Hoyt thing is the least annoying part of the Tara storyline so far.

    The best way I can describe this season is a car wreck. I know I shouldn't stop and look at it, but I just can't turn away. What the hell happened to this show?

    I agree with most of what's been said here for this season. It's just getting too hard to follow now. There's so much going on I'm beginning to lose interest. I'll tough it out for the rest of this season and see where it goes. I order HBO pretty much for this show then cancel after the season is over. Not sure if I'll order up next season if this doesn't start getting better soon.

    It actually seems to be turning around. The ending of the last episode sure puts a different spin on things.

    I'm actually not sure I like this direction. Russell as the main villain for another season? I'm hopeful Lillith or someone claiming to be Lillith would show up instead... Nora seems convinced something big that's been a long time coming is happening... but I just want to see Russell turned to bloody goo.

    I'm not sure what to make of the fairy stuff so far. Sup-killing humans... meh. Maybe they can kill some of the goddamn fairies?

    Im with you. Why are they rehashing the Russel storyline? It wasnt even that great the first time around.

    There are so many other things they could have explored... now the show just feels totally lost.

    Im sure Russel will need to be killed again

    Its getting harder for me to care with so much going on .....

    Sookie and her powers
    Lafayette and his powers
    That cook who has problems with some super natural power
    Shifter hunters
    Tara's mommy problems
    Wolf fights with V
    Now Russel not being killed
    Old sheriff using Viagra

    Also how can I forget when times get hard Godrick stops by.

    Amen. I'm watching it for the sake of watching it, but it's not grabbing me at all. I don't care what happens to anyone in any of the storylines that are going on.

    A main character ( or two) needs to die... as in die and never come back on this show ever again in any type of story line EVER. That should help clean things up.

    Once again, I swear that I won't watch this show only to give in on Sunday. What once had the potential to be an amazing series had completely turned into garbage. This series needs to be put of of it's misery. I have never been more excited for a series to just be over with.

    Okay, my rant is over. Just had to get that off my chest. Carry on.

    If you haven't watched this from the beginning, you're going to be pretty lost on some of the back stories (e.g. the whole Bill/Eric/Sookie thing).

    That being said, even Tara doing a pole dance doesn't stop me from wanting to stake her. Damn she's annoying! And Sookie trying to 'use up' her power.

    oh, no.. I started from the beginning. I don't ever cut into the middle of a series because they usually don't make sense that way

    You'll love the first three seasons... and then you can walk away after that. This show is a complete cluster **** now.

    Where did this Lilith storyline come from?? Seriously, everything I like about Eric and Bill's characters is being decimated this season. The dialogue, the back stories... It's a complete mess. No integration of plots. Completely erratic storytelling.

    Charlaine Harris should het to kick Alan Ball in the nuts for what he did to this series.

    I'm only watching because I'm "committed" to this damn show.. but I'm not sure I'll be back next season.

    Pretty much what everyone else has said about this season... this show has been pretty bad for awhile.

    Still disappointed in the lack of Sookie tits thus far

    Okay, so the ghost who killed Sookie's parents is a vampire and is now after her? Dumb dumb dumb. It's gonna take an act of Lilith to save this series.

    My impression of this season is they writers have run out of ideas and story line. They are just throwing everything and the kitchen sink at you to make a show. They seem to have 7 or 8 sub plots that are not connected and are not going anywhere. This season made me move on.

    It just keeps getting worse. Although, there are still some good lines.

    Andy: "Let's go butt plug."
    Pam: "My mad face is the same as my happy face."

    I thought to myself, please don't let them have Sam kiss himself on the mouth. As he was bending down, I thought that was exactly what was going to happen. Laughed my ass off when she turned back. Thought about the princess kissing the frog!
