I’m finding this season dull and unpleasant - I went and re-upped HBO for this???

- The Authority: what a motley crew! Underwhelming is right. The leader, though very well dressed, is too foul-mouthed and lacks charisma, he’s like a rich, mean CEO everyone hates. (and for chrissakes, stop torturing that poor female vampire, I HATE that stuff and they’re sadistically dragging it out.) I DID enjoy his killing off that annoying child. “I’ve got Sweden all sewn up” (words to that effect) :rolleyes: - he was a cute little kid but what made him so special as to be a big shot Authority??? (guess now we’ll never know).

- Pam: About time she started being a ‘maker’ and just didn’t leave Tara to figure it out on her own. And if she ever bumped into a wall, I think chunks of her makeup would break right off.

- What the hell are they doing with Terry’s war story? Are they going to drag in another ‘supe’ from Iraq? A ghost? That part was like a completely different show and went on too long, I hope it’s worth the wait.

Oh, there’s a lot of little things I don’t like this season, it’s like all different writers are writing all different stories, and none of them are particulary interesting. There haven’t been any awesome moments to remember, so far.

Oooh, I like the Tara angle! I’m hoping for that. 😃

But I didn’t think the attraction to fairy blood had anything to do with sex, so I don’t see why any vampire at all wouldn’t want to eat Jason, and not just the ones also wanting to suck him dry in other ways.

> I can’t remember, but does the maker-makee bond go both ways as far as knowing who’s in trouble? I’m guessing not, as Pam would probably have worried less, or more, if she’d at least had an idea whether Erik was safe or not.

In the books there is what they call a blood bond and can sense terror, happiness, general location, pain and so forth.
