IT'S UPON US! SEASON TWO OF TRUE BLOOD
Written By “Eye’s on Bill”
Come home, children of True Blood! Come in off the lonely streets that exist only between seasons. Come in and sit. Calm yourself down from the Screaming-Crazies that have ravished you during the long stretch of episodeless months. Rest your wandering souls and regain your lucid composure. You will soon need all your wits about you, for our time has nearly come. In less than a week, it will finally be here. It will finally be upon us! All prepare for the beginning of True Blood, Season Two!
Leap before you look. Count those eggs before they hatch. Throw the baby out with the bathwater! Let nothing stand in your way. Cancel your Sunday happenings. Align your satellite dish or reinforce your cable connection. Distance yourselves from loved ones and other life obstacles! It’s time to throw ourselves at the mercy of Alan Ball and the entire True Blood cast, and you can’t do that with commitments and obligations clouding your view. It’s time, once more, to submit yourself to the reckless abandon that is your unhealthy and all consuming love of True Blood!
When we last left Bon Temps there was a body, a bewitching, and a newly sired penance. Who was that seemingly lifeless body in Andy’s car? Who and what is Maryann, and why is she vibrating with a pig? How will Sookie handle the news that Bill has a teenaged vampire daughter? There are so many questions to be answered, and even more that could be asked. Who is this Eggs character, and will he seduce Tara? What’s with Sam stuffing the bags with money? Will there be snogging between Arlene and Terry? It’s just to much! How have we managed to bear it all?
With the June 14th premier of True Blood: Season 2, will also come the introduction of all that is new. All reports suggest more violence, more sex, and more blood! The clips and photos which circulate show us changes in our favorite character’s appearances. Bill, somehow even more handsome than in Season 1, Eric looking trendy with shorter hair, and Sookie looking extra country bumpkin are just a few of the sights we are to enjoy. Whispers of show altering events have loomed for quite some time. How solid will Bill and Sookie’s relationship be? What will happen in Dallas? It’s going to be an up and down rollercoaster!
So, now it brings me great pleasure to, once again, begin a little True Blood forum tradition. It’s time to start the countdown! Here, post your last minute rantings and ravings! Let the momentum build until you burst!
It’s Upon Us! True Blood: Season 2 begins this Sunday. June 14th!
It’s only 6 days away!
