You know, best episode of the series is right.

yeah, I agree too.

 

[teiresias]

what? i got no such implication. they were just partying upstairs. it just seems like a regular basement in a house

You were saying?

I don't know about best episode ever. I'm really finding Jason's storyline cringe-worthy, but maybe I just don't realize that this is how these kinds of people really behave and so it just seems ridiculously over the top and embarrassing to me.

I'm really liking the all of the other storylines in the show though, and . . .

. . . OMG, that guy all trying to get with Tara is hooooooooot!!!!!!!!

 

[gdt]

Just wanted to pop in again and say that LaFayette was especially good this episode.

 

[charsace]

If I could be Jason for a month I would die a happy man. So many fine women.

 

[VegaShinra]

Great episode. Eric is the same as ever and Jason is looking to get into some trouble on his religious retreat. Next week should be awesome.

 

[Jibber Hack]

Loved tonight's episode. Anyone catch the song in the credits tonight?

 

[Fatalah]

I've always enjoyed the LaFayette character, it seems like he's the most together out of anyone. Great episode tonight.

 

[giga]

Everything is awesome about the series except Tara and her freakishly toned love interest.

 

[Tokubetsu]

I'm really anxious to see how Lafayette gets out of all this shit. Like someone said earlier, he seems to be the only one with a full deck of cards. His "Survivor first, capitalist" second line fits him fucking PERFECTLY.

 

[Skittleguy]

Wow, the guy with Tara is wow.

Edit: Mehcad Brooks. He was in Desperate Housewives or something. But yeah, wow.

 

[Blackhead]

Ok i might just check until the end of the season because of the cliffhangers

Spoiler

then I watch the preview for next week and I cant wait

 

[Mercury Fred]

Damn this show is on fire!

Totally love Michelle Forbes in this. Can't wait to see where her story goes.

And the Bill / Eric / sales clerk scene was great-- "ohhh, I get it..."

 

[polyh3dron]

Holy fuck so Bill has to kill Jessica's whole family now? That's harsh.

 

[ralexand]

Agree with those saying best episode... has everything I love about the series, lafayette, sookie's titties, that hot cougar, the hot girls in Jason's subplot, Eric, and lafayette!

 

[Ashhong]

You were saying?

lucky guessss

I had to go look it up. I was laughing at it (in a good way, though) too much to not find out about it:

Chuck Prophet - "You Did"

I had to pause the show once Sookie and Jessica went to her old house. It was so tense and uncomfortable for me, cause I just know something bad was going to happen. Sometimes when a scene unfolds like that for me, I have to take a breather, as weird as that sound!

But I agree with most here. This show is just getting better and better!

 

[Double D]

So, I just jumped on the bandwagon a week before the premiere and did the on demand thing. I'm current now, and have to say that this is one of the most enjoyable shows on TV.

Anyways, I have a question: What the hell is Maryann?

[hiryu]

Another really great episode. This season is on fire so far.

he'll just glamour them into thinking they were never there.

 

[Paznos]

That's exactly what I was thinking he would do.

Thank you!

 

[OmniGamer]

. . . OMG, that guy all trying to get with Tara is hooooooooot!!!!!!!!

Yeah, as mentioned, Mehcad Brooks...he played one of Alfre Woodard's son's in Desperate Housewives' shitty season 2...and he also was in an episode of Fox's "Dollhouse"...kinda shirtless, but with annoying black stripes covering his body due to the window blinds.

Great episode, I love me some highlights-getting, track-suit wearing, redneck-killing, tall nordic buff Eric. And Pam is always great too.

Jason, though in this necessary but annoying Jesus Freaks storyline, at least still manages to satisfy his quota of exposed manflesh

I'm vowing to stay spoiler free regarding Maryann...what she is, what she can do, etc...she can change Sam to his dog form...makes me wonder if that pig she was with is another shapeshifter who she has perhaps kidnapped and keeps in pig form. Or hell, if her or her "kind"(if there are others like her) are somehow responsible for shapeshifters in the first place. I wonder what the sexual pheremone spell, her interest in getting Eggs and Tara to get it on(*slaps Carl* "NO ONE NEEDED TOWELS!"), and her massive calorie binge, are all about.

Loved seeing the Jessica scene at her home...interesting that Vampires can glamour a human into inviting them in though...seems like a cheat...perhaps it only works on young minds like Jessica's little sister.

 

[squicken]

The dude with dark hair that has some homo-erotic tension going with Jason totally looks like Nathan Drake.

Seriously that flag-football CTF was like a Schlitz Gay montage.

 

[evilpigking]

Liked the ep a lot, the whole darker tone of the show is fitting nicely. Needs more Jessica though...and a bit less Tara.

 

[OmniGamer]

I like Tara, even during her always-pissed confrontational moments, though thankfully she's moved on from that, or at least is trying to, but who knows what this Maryann and Eggs stuff will throw her way. She's barely shown now anyway since 3 of her major plot points, her mother, her crush on Jason, and her no-strings-turned-strings-turned-off relationship with Sam, were all resolved...make that 4 things if you add her relationship with her cousin Lafayette.

As for McDonald and Jason, i'm getting a Frank Grimes/Homer Simpson vibe...the hard working straight as an arrow type has to watch the charming idiot get treated favorably and get everything effortlessly...wonder if he'll have a similiarly hilarious and/or fatal Grimey-styled meltdown.

 

[shintoki]

Please tell me LaFayette is gonna be okay =[

If he is gone, I don't know what I'd do.

 

[Wilsongt]

Well... I think they're going to do just what he asked them to do.

 

[Ravager61]

Just saw the episode. God damn do I love this show. Its just so over the top. Anyone who says they dont like it because its cheesy or whatever just doesnt get it.

There are so many ridiculous moments that make me lol. Jason playing capture the flag in slomo with God Bless Texas playing in the background, Bill shopping for girls clothes, jesus asked me out today, etc.

 

[Brian Fellows]

Jason playing capture the flag in slomo with God Bless Texas playing in the background,

I had that song stuck in my head at work all night. :lol

 

[Spotless Mind]

Second episode was MUCH better than the premiere and thoroughly entertaining, barring maybe the Jason stuff. Everything with Lafayette and Eric was gold. Quotable lines galore.

Lafayette rummaging through the guts was soooooooooooo good.

Best campy moment of the season is still Maryann's "Nobody needed towels!!!." *slaps servant* Fucking hilarious delivery. The scenes in the bar were also great. You can tell Michelle Forbes is relishing this role.

 

[Brian Fellows]

Personality wise Michelle Forbes would make a perfect Cersei Lannister in A Game of Thrones. Too bad she's not about 10 years younger and blonde.

 

[fanboi]

HOLY SHIT you are right!

I thought I recognized him...

 

[shintoki]

Well... I think they're going to do just what he asked them to do.

I feel that...But I'm still worried. =[

 

[sun-drop]

holy crap that was good. i thought ep1 was a bit ho-hum ..but this ..yeah ..prob maybe the best episode yet. awesome stuff ...right from the 1st min.

 

[Cornballer]

Great episode. The whole thing with Eric's hair cracks me up, and you just knew that Jessica going home would end up horribly wrong. Dumbass move on Sookie's part. It'll be interesting to see where they take Lafayette from here.

Good call. She has the attitude down perfectly.

 

[The Take Out Bandit]

Well, just watched the first season.

Interesting so far.

Spoiler

Although it felt like they were tossing Rene under the bus at the end because they wanted a shocker for the killer.

LaFayette rocks.

Sam is cool, but he needs to learn to turn into a Grizzly or a Lion.

Spoiler

OR A RAPTOR!

I'll check out the second season; but expect it to veer into crapsville quickly.

No way. They seem to be developing a good story right now.

 

[Gallagher]

Was a really nice episode. Can`t wait for episode 3.

 

[Clevinger]

I just watched the first season and I was surprised at how much I loved it. I figured I would hate it.

Really fun and funny show that doesn't take itself too seriously, yet still has some good dramatic parts with good acting.

 

[Mr. Durden]

Wow this was such a great episode. Lafayette is really a great character, can't wait to see what happens to him.

 

[Incognito]

Finally got around to watching last week's episode and damn, what an episode! The scene where Jason is in the bathroom and closeted gay dude walks in and says, "Jason Stackhouse, you think you walk on water?"

"No, that's Moses," sez Jason in all seriousness.

"No, idiot, that was Jesus."

Jason mouthing WTF in the mirror... :lol :lol :lol

 

[Costanza]

New ep tonight!

 

[Costanza]

reminder: 2 minutes to go

 

[Costanza]

WTF

 

[Costanza]

One week break? Huh, I can't remember an HBO series ever doing that.

 

[Judderman]

One week break? Huh, I can't remember an HBO series ever doing that.

Probably b/c it's 4th of July weekend. Good episode btw, weird that noone was posting in here

 

[Zabka]

Might be a response to the massive spike in Season 1 DVD Sales along with the holiday weekend.

Great episode, by the way.

 

[Costanza]

Yeah, I didn't think about July 4th. That makes sense.

 

[Tucah]

Great episode, relatively minimal Jason which I liked. Still could use even less Tara, but I'm curious to see how the Dallas stuff pans out. A change of scenery, even if temporary, will be very nice.
