So I just got back from my weekly meet up of friends, home made pizza and "True Blood" and I'm wondering.
Wondering, why is the same-sex stuff so mild, compared to the opposite-sex stuff.
I mean, Russell and Talbot have been together for 700 years, I've yet to see them even peck, and don't tell me there's modesty there.
Lafayette and Jesus were like two virgins fumbling in the car. I asked my buddy K, "Why are they stalling?" and he gave me the same baffled look I had.
Eric's flirting with the royal couple is really funny. Hilarious even, especially because his smile is creepy and demented and doesn't reach his eyes.
And still, we've seen a shit-load of innuendo, an erotic dream that was based on puns ("The water is hard in Arkansas". *cringe*, but still hot).
In this same episode we see Cooter and Debbie making out with blood all over them, that kid's ass as he was fucking his girlfriend, Tara and Frank had a vicious scene - OMG! Tara is my freakin' hero! She's so awesome!
And of course, Sookie and Bill, the it couple.
Fuck, Lorena is insane! Not that I felt too bad for Bill (I'm not fond of the duplicitous tool that he is)
Regardless, I'm seeing a whole lot of toning down queer sexuality or making it about the laughs, than I like.
Though Lafayette and Jesus fighting off those homophobic assholes hicks was golden.
Don't go away Jesus!
All in all, it was a great ep. Tara bashing Frank's head in, fucking great! Eric flirting with Talbot and Russell, priceless! Arleen and Jessica, so cute!
Oh and of course, Lorena's immortal line to Sookie:
"I'm going to rip out your ribcage and wear it as a hat"1
Which I, dear friends, quoted along with her. Dude, Buffy. Buffy!!!! On my "True Blood"!!!!!!
*Squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee*
Footnotes
1) Originially said by Buffy to Whistler in Season 2 Episode 22 "Becoming, Part 2". It is a line that has been with me since I first saw more than ten years ago. I scared my friends this evening my squealing so hard when Lorena said it. It was awesome.
