True Blood is SHIT.
First season: good
Second season: I could write a better storyline when I was 5 years old.
Makes me RAGEEEEE.

Because it isn't.
It goes on about nothing. Nothing EVER happens. Even when something SEEMS like it's gonna go somewhere, it's like the writers are saying to us, "HELL NAH, SUCKAZZZZZZZZZZ."
(Among other things)

I'm going to have to respectfully disagree, I absolutely love the show. However, even I am getting tired of Maryanne....I think its time to move on from her...

I completely agree. 2nd season is bad...although I still do watch it. 1st season is 10 times better. |

Fair enough. But honestly, I don't think I've ever seen such a poorly written/executed season in a long time. In fact, I will say that it's WORSE than Season 5 of House (and I LOVE House and hated season 5).
For example. We all know the concept of foreshadowing. We learned it in what, grade 8 at the most basic level? Well, the writers certainly don't.
I could name off dozens of different times where a character in the shows makes it seem like something is gonna happen, or they build something up, and something completely different happens. This is fine, because who likes a show to be predictable.
But what happens next is NEVER better than what you thought would have happened, and it is a TOTAL waste of an episode or it just completely doesn't add to anything.
Example 1: Remember when Godric got captured? They were talking about what could have done it. Erik said, "Nothing human..." which would obviously lead us to believe that "omg, something new and exciting is gonna pop the eff out of nowhere, and it's gonna be godly." WRONG. Turns out, it WAS humans, and godric went willingly, and he dies in the end anyways. Waste of what, 3/4 episodes?
Example 2: This is like, the last 2 episodes aired. Lafayette, Tara's mom (name escapes me), and Sookie had managed to get Tara out of Maryanne's clutches and spent the entire episode basically trying to get her to snap out the spell she was in. They finally managed and blah blah, all goes well... only to find out an episode or so later, that she just gets recaptured again without even a flinch from maryanne.
I could go on.
I hate season 2. So much.

Yea, I've heard that too and it COMPLETELY baffles me. How this show is more successful than Sex and the City, I don't know.
It's horifying. All of the subplots are USELESS. They are JUST filler for the episodes, and they NEVER lead anywhere.
I could kick a dog. D:
Edit: I still watch it too Kevin, but for only 2 reasons:
1) I ALWAYS finish what I start 
2) It HAS to get better. I mean, it certainly can't get worse. >_< It REALLY can't.

It's in the Basement of Togo Salmon Hall (TSH).
When you're in MUSC, you want to walk towards Union Market. There is a set of stairs going up and outside, one going down and straight, and one continuing down into the basement of MUSC. You want to take the ones that go down and straight into the basement of TSH. 1280 is on your right-hand side. The door still says Quarters.

And for everyone else wanting to discuss True Blood, please make a new thread! This one has derailed from the initial topic a lot!
