What is Sookie Stackhouse?

PLEASE: NO SPOILERS! and yes, I am shouting. I love that show!

Well, it’s kind of impossible to tell you what she is without spoiling anything for two reasons. One, it will SPOIL the story for you, and two, the story lines in the book series are sometimes vastly different from the TV series. There are all kinds of characters we should have met already but haven’t, and there are sub-stories that never occurred in the books, but are main focuses in the series. If you change your mind, I can tell you “what” Sookie is. Otherwise, all I can say that her bloodline is not of the known human world.

Okay, that’s good enough.

I had this spoiled for me in the comments section of an io9.com post. I’m hoping the show goes differently so I feel less spoiled.

So she’s an alien??

@Deepness No, she’s something far more…Celtic.

Sookie Stackhous is a human….... a character in a tv show….....

I am a sucker for spoilers, I try to find them out all the time lol. I haven’t read the books, but talk to people online who have. I haven’t gotten a straight forward response on what she is….but if she isn’t human, doesn’t that mean her parents weren’t??
Also, I think her brother has something as well but I don’t know what,

I’m going with an angel, or some other sort of benevolent being.

She is a mind reading vampire

She’s just annoying at times.

I didn’t know the show was based on a book series. Wonder how that information escaped me… Anyway, I must leave this thread, as I think I’ve read too much.

True Blood! She’s part fairy from what I have read online.

@bennihan- No. That’s Lafayette.

WTF? Why does everyone feel the need to spoil it for others?That is what the PM is for.

@tinyfaery I think the point of the question was to discuss it, as in spoil it…if you don’t want to be spoiled, don’t read.

Spilling the beans is not a discussion. It says not to spoil it in the details. And, was your comment necessary? It has to do with you because…?

@tinyfaery Because I was part of the thread…I still don’t think what was said really spoiled much. I wasn’t saying it to be sassy, no need to be mean.

@casheroo, the original post asked for an explanation of what Sookie is, WITHOUT SPOILING THE STORY. Said it plain as day. In this instance, the point was NOT to spoil it. Did you read that part?

@Shegrin I’m sorry if someone ruined the series for you. Guess you can’t watch it anymore since to you, you were spoiled. I wasn’t, what was told doesn’t tell me a lot.

@casheroo, you said: “I think the point of the question was to discuss it, as in spoil it…if you don’t want to be spoiled, don’t read.”

The original post said:“If anyone has read ahead and can tell without spoiling things, what is Sookie Stackhouse?”

I think the point was to maybe get a tip that they were thinking in the right direction without finding out anything about future story line possibilities.

Nobody ruined the series for me. You might try reading every post to this thread from the beginning. It might clear things up.

Jason Stackhouse’s memorable line: “I love the smell of nail polish in the morning”

I love TB and have not read any of the books.
I want to take a guess that she was a Vampire in her past life, and she reincarnated back into her family lineage.
I got a kick out of Grans and the cook, I forgot his name. He cracks me up everytime!

I will not spoil the show for you by revealing Sookie’s background but what I will say is, It shouldn’t be any surprise if the shows producer, Alan Ball decided to flip the scrip and recreate Sookies Background. Sookie is human however, she is much much more. You will find out exactly who Sookie is toward the very end of the third season. However, if you do discover who and what Sookie is prior to the shows revelation, be for warned that Alan Ball may recreate her background to spruce up her story line in an attempt to throw fans a curve ball. You may go into the show thinking you know something only to find out things have changed. Just a little warning to those who think they know, but really don’t.

I know exactly what sookie stackhouse is! Shes human with powers yes, yet why has Bill Compton been keeping a file on her and her family? Take a guess! Anyhow: spoiler alert- beware! Sookie stackhouse comes from a long past bloodline clan of mystics with the powers to return an immortal and other creatures back into a human being again. This is why Bill Comton wants her so very much. He hates drinking blood, or killing humans, he is mainstreaming, he has always hated being a vampire and wanted a way out of his misfortune. He has hated his maker for what she done to him, hated loosing his human family all those years ago, so hes been seeking a mystical creature that has the ability to change him back into a human again. He never knew of sookie, but he was seeking her blood line, her true family tree, and then, there she was. She is very powerful and no immortal can kill her. She grows in power until the series climax. Wink! I wont leak anymore. OR SHOULD I? Enjoy!

^^ Totally did not read past “spoiler alert”.
@nznat Thanks for the warning and welcome to Fluther!

ask me if you want to rest of the leaked info i have about sookie and true blood in general. Its very cool indeed!

oh, forgot to say, i am a close friend of anna, im also from New Zealand, and the true blood info is very interesting indeed. :-)

I wont release “all” details. I’ll only say it in a manner that will give you “an idea” of what will take place. Sookie will be revealed in time to all, and will become extremely sort after by all immortals who want to become mortal human beings again, just like on the X men movie when they had found a cure to the mutant syndrome. Many lined up to be cured and many resisted it. In this case, it will be the same, yet there will be a big battle as many try to kill her to stop any cure taking place. And then there will be many who will try to protect her from harm, as they want to be cured. As you can see, she will end up in the middle of everyone and everything. At the same time, she will be growing in power and slowly starting to be able to use those powers at will. This will take a good few episodes and draw it all out, as the show does, but she will slowly become able to start to use the powers to cure the odd vampire and werewolf and shifter, etc. She will create such a clash of emotions within immortals, because they wont want to give up their powers, yet will have such a need to become humans again, lots of tears and emotions for those on the verge of the cure. She will become like a god as such, looked upon as absolute royalty and protected by the highest leval of the vampires, yet the true original vampire will slowly also be revealed, you will ofcourse be drawn into this, not guessing who actually “is” the first vampire, the king “or queen” of them all, you will never guess who it is, and you have already scene them in the current episodes, its a big twist indeed. A very good twist too. As sookies powers increase she also has to control her emotions as her powers make her very much manic with them, and she has bursts of anger and destroys a few in horrid ways who appose her. Shes not out to harm, but anna, or sookie, shows her award winning acting aswell as time goes on, when she brings many more emotions into the series. Quite a twist. There is a whole lot more to come of this spoiler, beware. The climax of the series is pretty amazing really, its a big X men climax type of thing, with her in the middle of a middle earth type of battle, and the show pulls out all the stops with special effects and confrontation, and shes shows both sides, good and bad who she actually is beyond her abilties to turn immortals back to human again. We find that is only a little power compared to what you will see soon. Who actually “is” the first vampire afterall. A big Wink!

The head vampire is a half breed, like in underworld. As if they were the creator of both the werewolves and vampires. She “wink”, or “he” wink, is a headlining act in the show – someone you already know. It will surprise even the most dedicated fan of the series. Lets just say, bill dies at the hands of “it”, and sookies madness takes her over near the time of the big battle, only that she starts to forsee things before they actually happen, so her battle with her madness and reality takes her on a path to actually change the outcome of what she forsees. She has to choose between bills death as a mortal after she changes him back to human, or keeping him as a vampire that will actually save him from a certain death that she had forseen. MEanwhile, the sherrif conspires to kill sookie with a special weapon that was discovered while he was away searching for it via more info that bill had within the file he had on sookie; its sookies only way of dying and the one who kills her, takes all her powers and ends up ruling over all immotrals – sort of like that of the chronicals of riddick, he ended up ruling over all the negromongers. Yet sookie still cannot see into the thoughts of vampires, even with all her powers, that still alludes her, so she cannot see her own fate at the hands of the sherrif of area ”...wink”! What sherrif you may ask? wink. The shape shifters that start to converge on the residence of sookie become allies to sookie, as they have never done her any wrong, she uses them like the vampires use werewolves, to do her bidding. They are reluctant as she is becoming very unstable, yet they serve her, as they know it could work out in their favour after the battle is over. They too are at odds though, as some want to be human, and some still want to keep their powers; there are some arguments around that with the shifters, but nothing too much. Who is the head vampire? Who, you may ask? Think about it for a minute. NOt a werewolve? And someone we all know so well! Cant be the sherrif of area 5, he was created by goddrick. Who created goddrick? Think longer about this. Did you see how far sookies file went back into her past, the file that Bill was keeping on her. Did you really see into that file on the show, or was it only in front of your eyes for a second. Was there lots more pages of how far back sookies file went. Who could be the first vampire? WHo? Did sookie have a past, was the file on sookie correct, or was there missing information in bills file on her. Was she at the end of the file, or was she at the beginning of her family tree? Wink! The answer has still not be given here. The mind bending continues! Its amazingly written, you will be blown away thats for sure. Amazing who the head vampire really is!

@nznat is this from the books?

Charlaine Harris has stated before that much of what you see on True Blood is new to her. Assuming that the series will completely follow the books is foolhardy.

@AstroChuck Yeah, that’s why I asked if it was from the books since I’ve heard they aren’t really following it: just using it as a baseline or something.

@casheroo- I’m assuming since @nznat mentions Godric it must be stuff about the HBO series as Godric isn’t in the books (Eric’s maker was an ancient Roman named Appius Livius Ocella in the Sookie Stackhouse novels). Which makes me wonder how Anna Paquin (nznat mentions being friends with her) knows the ultimate destiny of her character as usually actors are kept in the dark about upcoming seasons for spoiler reasons.

actors are “not” kept in the dard. Maybe here and there, but over there and elsewhere they get all the info so to know there charactor very well. :-)

who is lafayettes new interest jesus or rather what is he

NZNAT – Phenomenal insight! I am trying to figure out who the “original vampire” was and based on just about everyone I remember getting turned into walking zombie-like creatures during the second season by the “maynaud” the only ones that seem credible to me are Sam (how can he be if he was “born”) – though he seems the most logical, especially the way he instantly disciplined the dog fighting with his “brother” last episode, unless it is his Mom, who only appeared in season 3, but I doubt her because she seems too dumb and gave her child away, Jason Stackhouse – who just does not seem to know what he is doing from day to day so I can not see him being it, Detective Andy Belfour – very dark hourse candidate seems too drunk and stupid to be the original vampire; the vampire queen of Louisiana Sophia, maybe and she does know about Sookie, she could just be going along with Russell right now; maybe Hadley is playing along – but I doubt it because she did allow herself to get bit by Eric and bled – so I have to believe is is Sophia! Any more insights NZNAT. I do not miss an episode and “knowing” what may happen does not spoil the series a bit for me. Thanks!

@Vampire- As we see all those people walking around in the sunlight I wouldn’t imagine it being any one of them. The only one I can think of is maybe Nan Flanagan, the American Vampire League spokesperson. But I doubt it’s her.

I don’t think it’s Sophie. I think it may be the crazy Vampire that’s trying to marry Tara—Franklin Mott. He appears in the novels though, but that doesn’t mean that they can’t take him and make him into something different.

i need to know everything i watch the show religiously and nothing is a spoiler to me. ill watch it time and time again after i know but i have to…please share everything you know

DItto, I enjoyed reading. Share more if you would, please.

One thing I forgot above is the obvious first vampire choice now is Russell – so it can not be him. I do not see it being his partner or Franklin because they are fairly new and have only had bit parts. The hint above from NZNAT is that it is somebody fairly obvious that we have seen plenty of and know. I sure am still guessing

I believe that Sookie’s blood type (based on the last episode) holds great signifiance and could be more powerful than V

Maybe its Tara, who said the King has to be a man and who said they have to be a vampire?

After Lafeyettes mothers comment on his being powerful, now I am thinking it might be him??

I feel like a kid on Christmas. I want to know more!!!!

its getttin crazyyyy i wanna know everything

jesus i think is the original vamp he glamoured laf;s mom and everything

and who is the weird redneck drug dealers what and who are they that they have a scent?

I believe that the weird drug dealers are werecats, werepanthers or something along those lines.

jesus is a witch I believe

Final Vamp must be Hesus from the care facility. He “knows” of lafayette’s powers, he has the ability to glamour lafayettes mom, and his friggen name is hesus. Why wouldn’t hollywood take that shot?

2nd guess: It could be Jason, supposedly in the books he is able to partially turn into a panther or something. It makes sense, if Sookie can turn them FROM supernatural TO human, then Jason must have been the one who turned them FROM human to Supernatural. The fact they don’t know their past is really just a well thoughout narrative. Jason has not been bitten by a vampire and IF the “hints” are accurate and Sookie is the top of the ‘tree’, then Jason is her equal counterpart at the top of the tree. In this episode he also keeps saying “You don’t know who I am” maybe out of naivety or not but it is compelling.

I really don’t care if NZNAT’s post is complete BS or not. I like his/her version and would like to know who the final vamp is. Spoil it please nznat!

yes nznat what you said right wrong or otherwise is a story id like to know so please spill everything

we’re all waiting nznat

and laf had to invite jesus in to his house

he just asked him to come in or did I miss him trying to leave?

i dont remember it exactly but i know it stood out to me that he invited him in without there being a situation in where he had to he wasnt coming in though

The thing about hesus is that he wasn’t there from the beginning of the show (episode 1). The bigger spoiler would be if the person was in the show from the very first episode. If Sookie is just relearning her powers then so should Jason. Has sookie ever read Jason’s mind? Not that it would matter because the original vamp was half blood and may not be immune.

yes sookie read jasons mind about him killing taras boyfriend remember

in sookies living room tonight with balfour

I was thinking about jason and what he could be, then I thought I remembered seeing him punch, kick or shove someone and they flew as if he had super strength

nznat you around?

+1 for Jason, the Maynaud creature didn’t effect him and the story line generally leaves Jason away from supernatural beings so as not to create conflicts of interests.

I am going to assume Jason until told otherwise. Now I can sleep.

it did affect jason at the end if affected everyone when they were ready to give the sacrfice

i apologize for my mis-spellings watching entourage and side tracked by true blood

Nznat posted this info a week ago. Unlikely he’ll/she’ll respond.

doody

blah, books say that jason was turned by ‘crystal’s boyfriend’ into a were-panther.

what is the difference between them and werewolves

instead of turning into wolfs they would turn into panthers

no idea. The ending to the books hasn’t actually been written yet so its all a complete mess but the book sookie is supposedly from a line of fairy royalty and that her parents were murdered by crazy faries. jason is half fairy too or some crap and there are witches comming in the story (possibly hesus). So, if they are a main character all along, they would have to be put under the influence of maynaud. Sookie and Bill weren’t. Everyone else was?

I think they are going in the direction with Sookie that Nznat was explaining, because last week when Bill almost drained Sookie, Tara kicked him out into the sun and he didn’t really burn right away. Its probably because he drank so much of Sookie’s blood, and she can make immortals mortal…

I love True Blood, no matter how absolutely terrible it is. But everyone speculating that they’re faeries is kind of ridiculous. I’m not sure whether or not they’ll put it into the show – because everyone will go… Faeries..?

Tonight’s episode sure looked to be heading in that direction, though. Sookie dancing around a beautiful nature scene with a magic pond and lots of girls in light and wispy clothes? Seems pretty faerie-ish.

Weeks ago, Jason mused that the first vampire was Jesus of Nazareth, and that Lazarus was Jesus’ first progeny. Jesus Velasquez is olive skinned, and is easily being hinted to have knowledge of darkness and light. He spoke to Lafayette of letting his nature not get corrupted, which is a nod to the Christian Jesus’ teachings.

And we need to remember, this is all written by Alan Ball, whose prior works consist of “American Beauty” and “Six Feet Under,” both of which were marvelously written and famous for challenging perceived realities. I think a Vampiric, homosexual Jesus who falls in love with a flamboyantly gay black chef in Southern Louisiana is right up his alley.

If there is any truth to Nznat’s colorful writings, then I will place my bets that Jesus is the original vampire. It fits with the Last Supper nicely enough to give the theory credibility, and really, is there any other way to drive the ratings up than to make use of religious or moral controversy?

This has it all. Give it 5 minutes after airing the gay, bloodsucking (among other things) Jesus and you will have an explosion in the media.

The only snag is the dates, or so it would seem. Perhaps Jesus was a vampire from 4 or 5 thousand years ago, and he only decided to become publicly viewable around 2000 years ago. It would explain his feats of water walking and changing water into wine (etc), as well as his abilities to resurrect. We would have to assume that as the original vampire, he is able to walk in the sunlight (since perhaps his dual nature protects him).

There is one other hint that Jesus is indeed the first Vampire. Godrick (whom I loved, and was sad they allowed him to pass) mentioned him, wishing that he could have known him. But I would assume that the original vampire would have a vested interest in obscurity. Who would want every vampire knowing who you were?

There’s potential in Jesus, as ever. =)

Plus he’s smoking hot. I loved him in “Weeds.”

Go for it, Lafayette! Your father in law could be God!

It can’t be Jesus.. He’s a brand new character and Nznat said that it was an original obvious character. If Sookie has powers, then Jason must have them, too… But i seriously doubt he has them considering he’s too ignorant about everything going on around him. I thought it would be Pam.. but I’m just not sure. I haven’t read the books, either. I want to read the books, so it would save me from not knowing.. but i just want to know. Here’s a list of EVERY character that has appeared on TB. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0844441/fullcredits#cast I honestly don’t know who it could be

I don’t think it could be Pam, since Eric is her maker, right?

Whos the lead vampire?

Its barry…remember him? where does he fit in with all this? is he part fairy too?

it’s eric. check out the book review here:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/1841493708/ref=s9_simh_gw_p14_i1?pf_rd_m=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&pf_rd_s=center-2&pf_rd_r=162G4N36FWVZHHF6YA5F&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=467128533&pf_rd_i=468294

it cant be eric in the tv show we see him before he is turned, and he is currently trying too get the crown from his life before vampirism, plus we know godric is his maker

I sure hated to see Godric pass. If Jason is the original vampire he still has not woken up and continues to go through life from moment to moment like a teenager. I look forward to next weeks episode. Sam and Jason and Sookie plus vampires were the only ones in town who did not turn from the “maynaud.” Thinking about it now I believe Belfour did. So it is Sam or Jason so I have to guess Sam, though Sam sure is hiding any vampire abilities right now. Come to think of it, Jason has to be out because Sookie read his thoughts yesterday. I do not remember Sookie reading Sam, but I forget all the specifics. Hopefully, someone in the real know will chime in. Series is great.

jason did go under the maynauds influence and sookie has read sams mind in seasons past

Thanks for the clarification – so I am back to Queen Sophie hiding in the wings, but maybe not….................

of course..i really think its jesus i know it doesnt go exactly along with what nznat said but the facts are right in our face…he had to get invited in to lafayettes house and he glamoured his mother and is just vampire like…right?

If I had to guess who the head vampire was, I would have to say it was Lafayette. His mother, very early in the season had seen dogs(wolfs/shapeshifters), vampires, and the mention of cats(werecats), however, in the last show she had said that Lafayette has great power and that she needed to protect him. I think that Jesus is a hybred vamp or witch or something and he is there to protect Lafayette. Someone had mentioned that they thought it was Sam but Sookie did read his mind earlier in the season, however, she has not read Lafayettes. But who knows. For all we know it could be Sookie herself.

on the topic of sookie, i really hope sookie and eric northman get together. he is a hottie and i can tell he cares about her. he did, afterall, have her cousin warn her she was in trouble. thoughts as to whether or not this will happen in the show?

Jesus is a witch and the Lafayette idea, I think is correct. They never have shown sookie reading his mind. I know that for sure.

When Lafayette leg was hurt, how did it heal?? Was it fast? Do we know?

The book says “eric” was put under a spell by a powerful coven of witches to forget his past, then the witches came after him. If Hesus is a witch, this would be a small twist in the show but maintain the basic storyline.

I am strongly leaning toward lafayette (for ZNAT’s storyline anyway).

if lafayette is the head vampire it makes the story more complicated. think about it. that would mean tara is not human either as she is his cousin.

But Lafayette has a mother who ‘protects’ him. She might just be an old witch and Hesus is the replacement. Tara had “irressitable” blood too (by the vampire’s head that was smashed in). At this point, if you think anyone is human you’re probably wrong :) She may be under a spell too. Who knows.

Lafayette originally died in the books, guys. I know people who have read the books, and it was supposed to be him in that car, not the lady. If he is something, the guy who writes the show is making it all up.

She is a fairy.

FYI guys, MaryAnn was a MAENAD. Not “maynaud”, or however it kees getting mispelled. The whole maenad storyline in Season 2 was taken from the Greek Tragedy “The Bacchae” by Euripides. I actually asked Charlaine Harris how she came up with the Greek maenad as her representation of evil in the second book (and this was before Season 2 had started for True Blood.) Charlaine had come to the Houston public library in January 2009 and about 200 of us got to hear her talk about the book series, what she thought of the tv series compared with the books, etc. I recorded her whole ‘talk’ with my Flip video—didn’t know if it was worth putting up on youtube since season 2 has already happened.

Hey, maybe its Jessica’s boyfriend Hoyt??

@rosiebud we know Hoyts mother, although it could turn out too not be his mother, who knows.

Who the heck knows, I am sooo confused….

Did anyone notice, and maybe the answer, why Eric’s nose and ear was bleeding when he asked Sookie’s cousin to give her a message. I don’t remember him being in a fight or the reason for these injuries? Also there was another inconsistency that I can’t remember right now.

How about the old sheriff??

@rosiebud i considered him, but he was affected by the maenad, and sookie has read his mind a few times.

anyone have any idea when it will be revealed? i want too mark the date on my calendar!

Eric was bleeding because when vampires stay up all day with out sleep that happens to them its called “the bleeds”. I found that out on jess’s site have a look on there she might drop some hints in at some point…....http://babyvamp-jessica.com/

oh and also i sent nznat a message asking to tell me some more stuff about true blood and this is what was sent back…........... “yeah will, i guess i have to reveal who sookie stackhouse “is”, and also who the first vampire “is”. Remember, the first vampire is not just vampire, this is important to understand. We keep thinking of a vampire, but we have to realise, where did they come from? Where did the werewolves come from? There must have been something that brought them to be in existance. What is a fairy? Is it a fluffy light bringing thing of good? Why on earth would someone think that? Are they not rife with emotions aswell. Can they become unstable? Can a fairy / angel fall from grace and fall into the darkness. Will they take with them their fairy powers when they fall into darkness. Will this not create a new race that is half this and half that? Will there be a fight within them, that brings them into an unstable nature? Who could it be? A main cast member we all know so well “is” the first vampire. Everything will be revealed”

Great answer, NOT!!!

So its God??

I think that Sookie Stackhouse (Or the original vampire) is a Djinn. A Djinn is a creature of of Arabic, Islamic and Ethiopian folklore (Zaat). God created Adam from red clay (Adam literally means red clay) and the Djinn from smokeless fire. A Djinn is a spirit creature that has the power to move between both the spiritual and physical worlds, can read the minds of humans and can take on the form of anything spiritual or physical (shapeshifters). The saying be careful what you wish for comes from the Djinn folklore as Djinn are known to take the words or wishes of humans and use them against them to cause havoc. It is also believed that witches get their powers from the Djinn who like to use humans to carry out their plans. It is possible that the Djinn went to Maryanne in the shape of her Bull God and granted her those powers knowing that she would use them to cause trouble.

Djinns do not have to be Bad. They have free will and can be good or bad. If a Djinn mates with a human their offspring will have the power to shapeshift; usually in the form of Dogs (domestic, wolves, hyenas), cats (domestic and wild) and serpents (fangs anyone). These offspring can aquire a taste for the blood or bones of humans. These offspring can choose to cause harm or help to humans as they have free will. It would make sense that Sookie would be a good Djinn because all of the minor Djinns are drawn to her. They are drawn to her because she is a source of power. They feel a connection to her because she has the power to make them completely human if she chooses to. It is possible that Sookie is a the offspring of a line of good Djinn who have choosen to fight against the bad Djinn and their vampire and shapeshifting offspring. Since they all have free will this would explain why some of the vamps, shapeshifters, witches are good and some are bad. Sookie and the Good Djinn is the only thing that can defeat the Djinn that created all of these supernatural beings.

Did anyone notice that they DID NOT show Franklin turning to mush after Tara bashed his brains in. Dead vampires turn to mush when dead. Maybe Franklin is still alive? Russell’s life partner (or his dead life partner) said he was still cleaning Franklin’s brains from off the ceiling. If Franklin turned to mush you would not know what his brain matter was or his face on the ceiling. Just another thing I have been thinking about..

Seeing as the world Charlaine Harris has created draws alot from the World of Darkness roleplaying game setting, I’d have to say that the original Vampire was a woman… For those that know of the WoD, the first vampire being Lillith… the woman Cain runs into after fleeing once he’d killed his brother Able. (The Mark of Cain being the two teeth marks on his neck) So I’d have to asume that the first Vampire will be a woman…

My bet ? Sarah… oke you see her standing outside in the daytime, but I can’t remember ever seeing her in direct sunlight…

I agree, I figured Franklin wasn’t dead. I loved the campy aspects about Talbot, though. I’m going to miss him, and the fact that he was so upset about Franklin’s blood in the guest linens just makes me chuckle.

Jesus is a witch or the first vampire. The new waitress is a witch, that’s a guarantee. Eric is not the first vampire (in the television series). Tara and Lafayette’s family are witches or something similar, although this is not at all represented in the books.

Nznat’s last input actually follows more the lines of the novels, where the fairies are involved in a bitter war. The main dispute centers around pure-blooded fairies and hybrid ones. Faeries were the ones who actually killed Sookie’s parents in the novels, although I’m not sure of the reasoning. What I can tell is that Sookie is partially a faerie, although her telepathy stems from something else entirely. Telepathy is NOT a faerie property, unless I’m mistaken, which means there is something else to Sookie besides her faerie blood.

Regardless, what you have here is a piece of sh*t town in some tiny Louisiana parish that has almost no normal humans residing in it; at least few to none that meet the line-of-sight of a camera lens.

I’m still adamant that Jesus is the first vampire. He’s a hybrid of something, that much is true, if he is a vampire at all. But with the possibility of sensationalism and press given from Jesus of Nazareth being the first vampire (and all the biblical lore that would support such an interpretation), I can’t imagine Alan Ball missing such an opportunity.

=)

@fallengrace The more Nznat replys with a million random questions the more it seems that his story is made up. Not sure why keeping it a secret is a big deal. Revealing 99% and then holding on to 1% seems silly. Anyway, I’d guess Lafayette.

It is a story on TV so it is subject to artistic license and will continually change. If Nznat wanted to say, that would be great, but I’m guessing its more exciting to see people speculate for him/her. No biggy. I like nznats story though, it is kind of like the Sopranos, writing the ending to a decent plot is important.

It’s been interesting reading all of everyone’s opinions. I have watched the show since episode 1 and have been obsessed ever sence. To be honest I thought Twilight was copying True Blood because I had never heard of it and thought Twilight was annoying haha.

But anyways…after reading everything I honestly don’t know who it is there are a few possibilities. There is some evidence but I don’t want it to be Jesus and don’t think it is because he JUST was put in the series. I definatly think he is not just a gay human but I don’t think he is the almighty first vamp. Lafayette? Maybe but he died in the books, and it seems that the TV series story line tends to differ from the books in a lot of cases but not all and if I remember right Lafayette drank Eric’s blood to heal from the leg wound. The show hasn’t showed Sookie reading his mind but I don’t remember there ever really being a reason for her to. It’s a definate possability but I’m not sold on him. Of course not Erik…I haven’t read the books but I’ve heard that Jason doesn’t have as big of a part in the books as he does in the Tv series, which makes me belive that either he his character has a big part because the director is making him into something big…or just to make the story better with him being funny, hot ect. It can’t be Sophia I don’t think because Erik a few episodes ago turned on her and let her know he is stronger/ older ect…and he was made by godrick. So I think it could be the King who Erik is following around (I forget his name) because he has the werewolves wrapped around his fingers, and he told someone I forget who that he has been doing it for a long time. He killed the other really powerful law enforcment vamp with no remorce. Ohhh another reason it probably isn’t Lafayette, he was doing that other vampire in the first season, and doing vampire blood…he got jason into it in the first place, and why would he need a supplyer if he was a vamp???? So I think it’s between the “King” or Franklin because we really don’t know much about him and I definatly don’t think he’s dead….but maybe not king because he diddn’t know who sookie was and wasn’t looking for her because of her powers. Sooo Franklin…or the story will have a MAJOR twist and maybe it is like Jason or this Jesus dude?? But Jason had never done Vamp blood before and was only doing it to get with Gwen. I don’t think it could be him then, and he did get all dark eyed and crazy because of Maryanne. Sam is not a vampire he is a shapeshifter…Maybe it really is Sook I mean right now it seems pretty logical, maybeeee but she almost died two episodes ago, bill told her he cannot give her the life he wants her to have with the whole growing old ect but i guess we will find out HOPEFULLY in the next episode what sookie really is and then a lot of questions will maybe be answered!

ohhhh yea and what is barry then, that hotel dude from the second season who could read minds?

http://truebloodguide.com/cast-character-bios/sarah-newlin-anna-camp/

If you look at the link above one picture has “Sarah” with teeth. Is that a hint of something to come? The Fellowship of the Sun thread has been gone for a while so I do not think the first vampire is any of them but do agree with the poster above who said it must be a woman. Did Lafayette’s mother go under the spell of MaryAnn the menaud (thanks for the spelling correction)? I think she was away at the institution then so perhaps we have to keep her in the picture as a possible. Also, as per poster above, what about Barry? Maybe he will never return, or will he?

you can tell sarah’s teeth are fake in that picture. I dont think she comes back.

i wanna know what happens!!

where is nznat!! i need to know more!!! who made the first vampire?

I think that the first vamp is Lafayette. I think Jesus was sent to protect him. Because when Lafayettes mother said that he was something special, Jesus replied with yes he is.

I stumbled over this site/thread during a google search of Sookie Stackhouse. I have to say, all of your opinions and speculations are just as exciting as the show itself. Too much fun. =)

cheers.

I really am beginning to think it is Hoyt. He has a calm about him and has proven that he is not as dumb as he acted in the beginning.

I vote Jesus as the first vampire, even though he hasnt been around since the beginning. other than that I think that its sookie or Jason with the reverse lineage unless they are re-encarnated or are doing it over iwth no memory. But the thing is that Tara, Jason and Sookie have memerable childhoods. Every one of the main characters has been explained and in the books the “first” is still alive at this point so it cant be Lafeyette. Belflur is jason and Sookies cousin too. but he was affected by the maenad. What about the King of Louisiana? he has been shown in past episodes as being around for a while and he challenged the Magistrate. Also Sam is suggested to have been an orfan, but never proven and we arent even sure that his “parents” gave him up. not that they gave up some child Even though they are shifters too. But another interesting fact was that the maenad was after Sam as him being very important .. even though she has done that before. also he wasnt effected by the maynads power. Or the Queen who knew what faires were and what they where capable of and also knew what the maenad was and what to do about it. So in the end I am looking out for the King, Queen, Sam, and Jesus. But as far the clues given my bet is on either the Queen or Sam.

one last interesting thought… if sookie can give life then can’t she take it away too? if she make immortals into mortals she should be able to make immortals too. Plus she has powers from more than fairies… as a fail safe her true form could have made her and wiped her memories and lived inside of her as a subconciousness and it slowly emerges. and put a part of herself into jasons body. Jason a morphing creature, she can give life and take it away, mind reading and that power thing with her hands. all together makes a poewrful creature

jason is nothing without her as he keeps saying!

I really dont think it is the king, queen, or Sam. Rosie, i do think it could be Jesus tho

but Jesus is not a main character. he has only been around for thee or four episodes.

Are we all just assuming that @nznat is right when s/he says it’s a main character that’s been around since the beginning? Or have I missed something else that supports that theory? Because I’m really liking the Jesus angle.

Anyone can come on here and give their opinion on what they think. Does not mean its true, only Alan Ball and his team of writers know for sure.

Only four episodes remain in this season…they better let us know (if there really is a first vamp in the show) who this first vamp is and what Sook is! I don’t want this season to end like the last two seasons…Me going CRAZY over what is going to happen next and waiting 9 months!

That is how they get us back, anticipation!!!

Actually the show is not even 1 hour, between watching past episodes (like we don’t know what already happened) and all those commercials, what is it 45 minutes, tops!

I just hope they fill the 9 months of waiting with another batch of Minisodes… The ones they made between season 2 and 3 were really great… Especially the Jessica one…

Jessica’s Minisode

How come I don’t remember that? What were they?

I just looked them up. Wow! Never knew about it. Were they on the same time and day as the show?

no they were in the cable tv entertainment menu.

You can find all of them on Youtube… I only discovered them recently :)

I found 6 of them, is that it?

The one with Bill and Eric with Pam was really good. Sookie, Tara and Lafayette was ok. Sam was way too dark but kind of funny and the one with Jason was stupid, except for the part when instead of saying Confucius he say Confusion. He sure is dumb as a stump…

@rosiebud yup there are only 6, atleast that I have found… If I find more I’ll message you the links :)

Lets just hope they do it again between season 2 and 3 to soften the thirst for more True Blood :)

I can hardly wait until Sunday comes… I am totally addicted…

From Answers.com:

“True blood means that you were born to a certain clan or life style. like if you lived in tribes and your mother was from one tribe and your father was from another, you would be half blood. If both your parents were from the same tribe, you would be true blood”.

I joined because of this thread! Thank you!!!! =)

Lots of new people on this thread. Welcome to Fluther!

@CutestManda same here :)

i was just thinking of how neat it would be if sookie got pregnant. by bill, the werewolf she has befriended, or anyone else. what kind of powers would the baby have? i dont think it will happen. was anything like that in the book? i should read the book. i keep hearing good things about it.

How can Bill have viable sperm, he’s dead? Maybe if she gets pregnant by Alcide she will have a litter of pups? LOL!!

LOL!!! I’ve actually thought of that before. ....babies. not pups. I think it may happen at some point. Not really soon though. It’ll be a while.

Naaa, I doubt she’ll get pregnant… it would be giving the show way to much of a “Twillight” feel.

Still, I’d prefer them to have her become pregnant then to allow Paris Hilton a ghuest starring role like she wants…

I mean… what ?

Paris Hilton, no way!!!! That would ruin everything, cheapen it….

@rosiebud yeah, my toughts exactly… I soooo hope they don’t offer her a part

Paris wants in

Clearly it is Lafayette. He is the head vamp. Russel has never met him. His story is tangental to the main story so he can be easily integrated into the main plot at any point. The “authority” has only been around a couple hundred years so it is probably a conglomeration of older vampires or humans for all we know.

Assuming Nzant is right, Lafayette is it. I’m 98% at this point and that is good enough for me.

who called it that franklin was not dead. i kind of had a feeling too because tara was still dreaming of him. the show is getting so good. i can’t believe they have not revealed what crystal and her “kin” as she called them tonight are. i know, but waiting to see it revealed. i like the preview part where eric says he wants to kiss sookie. anyone have ideas of what will happen next week?

That would be the worst thing if Sook got pregnant! Like someone else said it would be like Twilight and Twilight is soooo cheesy!

I have an original character to throw into the hat of ‘original vampire’... Sookie’s Grandmother. Maybe she wasn’t killed by a ‘serial killer’.

It would be more fun if you got to keep the ‘powers’ of the vampire you killed. Similar to Highlander. That could make for some interesting plot twists..

oooh i agree. i loved highlander!

That or it’s Hadly (spelling?) the “slave” girl of the Queen… oke, we saw the Queen feed on her… but who says she wasn’t allowing the Queen (a younger vampire) to taste some old timer blood ?

Franklin’s dead now. =)

redcrazy4u, I called it. I knew it, with this show you have to pay careful attention because ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN!!! I guess its safe to say Franklin is dead now. Jason is really starting to kick some butt now, big time. He is just running around with that shotgun. What the heck got into Sam, I never saw him act so violently before. Maybe because he was called a pussy and he is a dog?? haha

I think he needs to cut his brother loose, that guy does not have an ounce of gratitude in his body. Plus, I think he is totally nuts, broken goods.

I liked that crystal jar that Russell is carrying Talbot in, poor guy really loved him.

I CAN’T BELIEVE THAT WE HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL NEXT WEEK TO FIND OUT WHAT SOOKIE IS. I will go out of my mind if I don’t find out…

Hehe, I knew they were gonna put if off for another week… Sam rocked, as did Jason pulling a Clint Eastwood on Franklin…

God I love this show… and now, for the weather… Tiffany ?

:)

I don’t think Franklin is dead. (I haven’t finished today’s episode yet).
But when Tara smashed his head, he didn’t explode. Remember later in that episode, when Sookie killed the vampire in that shed? And she blew up?
She told Tara thats what a dead Vampire looked like.

And what is up with Sookie’s cousin and her son? Do I sense something about to happen? What did her son tell Sookie, “She did it” or something like that when she was dragging him out of the aquarium?

Oh! I called it! Just finished the episode. The end KILLED me. Its obvious that Sookeh is a faerie. I mean, what else could it be?

Could the original vampire not be the Sheriff? Did anyone else see him eyeballing those vials of blood?
Not to mention hes been a “main” character all seasons!
Hmmm. And now its obvious that Jesus is some kind of panther.

Does anyone have any ideas about what Crystal could be?

That is right, didn’t he say they were sent somewhere? Maybe he gave up drinking to start on V?

@meagan I could tell ya what Crystal and her family are but it’s a huge spoiler…

I’ll give you a hint… Sam could smell her family coming the first time they entered, and they knew he was a shifter…. The one she was promised too told Sam’s brother something to the effect of : “sit down, little puppy”

So they aren’t gonna change into dogs… I’ll let you guess the rest, but there is a saying that goes : fighting like…... and dogs….

:D

This thread is very interesting indeed. Lafayette I very much doubt that he is the head vamp, remember how they slapped him around and tortured him when they kidnapped him. In the books the head vamp is if I read correctly a blind vamp that lives in a cave somewhere. Did anyone consider that nznat has made everything or most of it up. It is the internet folks, people make up stuff cause they like the attention and messing with people.

Crystal is a were-cat (or were-panther or something, watch the minisodes to see her in panther form on HBO On Demand). She’s also completely nuts, and not a good “long term” girlfriend in the books.

Yes, Sookie is a faerie. However, the telepathy isn’t a faerie trait (in the books), so she’s something else as well.

I love Russell. Way to make a real scene, and the Vampire Authority will now have to get involved quite seriously. Love it.

@Erulin This whole thread is a spoiler. We already know they are were-panthers or were-cats. In the books crystal becomes jasons ex wife and has a kid with him making it a telepathic panther or some crap. Jason is also turned into a werepanther at some point.

@TTech
It has been stated over and over again that nznat’s ideas are unconfirmable and possibly BS. We were just guessing as to Nznat’s version of the story line because it is fun and a decent story line – true or not. Also, Alan Ball has already deviated from the book so the head vamp is whoever he wants it to be. The idea about the head vamp is that he/she is under a curse where they cannot remember who and or what they are. AKA. Hesus is a witch to protect him from becoming self aware.

@SolsticeRG This most recent episode was just a filler. It was incredibly boring. Russell’s TV appearance was the best part though.

@JustGuessing Agreed, last nights episode was a total snooze, with the exception of Russell’s newscast and Jason’s shotgun antics. =)

@justGuessing

Would not Lafayette then still have his strenght which he obviously does not (and after living so long a variety of other abilities) and if I remember correctly he was physically hurt in the show. If he were a vamp or whatever he should have self-healed. And, like Sookie, in times of danger I would imagine that his abilities would randomly pop up like Sookies light.

It is a tv show so they can write it however they like. Andy belflur has a broken arm, so he would be out. And hoyt wasn’t very early in the show. Also, we really don’t know the timeline on Lafayette being hurt. It does take a vamp a while to heal.

The only interesting thing I found that franklin was clearly a very old vampire due to the length of his fangs. I am sure there will be some side story repercussions for killing him.

In addition, this is hollywood. As talked about before, wouldn’t a gay original vamp protected by a gay guy name hesus be shocking to the general public? That is what they want, the insane.

Wow, reading this thread was amazing & makes me look forward to the next episode a billion times more. In regards to the ORIGINAL vampire – I think the Jesus storyline is great, and I’d actually like to see how the writers would pull that one off. BUT! Sticking to the hints, I think it’s Sookie’s Grandmother.

http://www.thefemmebot.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/13-FamilyTree-e1277155096917.jpg

link to the image of the family tree. Notice how there is a divergence above earl stackhouse. It is possible the grandmother is the top of the family tree.

If the book does indeed indicate the original vamp is blind, the grandma could potentially be blind.

Not a bad thought. A shocker for sure.

The grandmother angle does create the suspense of choosing between bill or the grandmother. If sookie has to stop “it” as nzant says, it is more difficult if “it” is the grandmother.

I just reread the thread (sorry @justGuessing now I saw that people already mentioned that it all might be BS) and you and @SolsticeRG make very good arguments for Jesus to be the head vamp. Quite a few clues here and there really could be interpreted in a manner that would point to him. Very kewl if it is him and he is not just a witch. But then again @badminton80 also makes a very good point about Sookie being a Djinn. So confusing :) I did not read the books only read the summaries from people and plots (now I think I remembered wrong, it might have said that the blind vamp in the cave was the oldest vamp not the head vamp) but obviously Alan Bell changed so much…

justGuessing, where is the rest of Sookie’s family true?

I think I can add some light to the image (found here: http://www.thefemmebot.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/13-FamilyTree-e1277155096917.jpg).

The reason it diverges above Sookie’s paternal grandfather could be that he was 100% faerie, and not partially (as Sookie herself is).

I will say this, we’ve managed to get confirmation on at least one part of Nznat’s theories: Sookie can make Vampire closer to human (at least if they drink a brick-ton of her blood). This isn’t what Russell is looking for, it’s what Sophie-Ann is looking for.

So with that having been said, I think it is indeed possible that Sophie-Ann is the first vampire. I’m not giving up on the Jesus angle, I love his character and the press it would generate could be astonishing, but Sohpie-Ann could easily be playing the entire situation. Remember how Godrick just let himself be captured? As could Sophie-Ann have let herself be put into marriage with Russell. If she’s super old (and not only 700 or 800, as she lets others believe), then she is surely quite cunning and forward thinking. After thousands of years, what’s a few more in terms of waiting, eh?

At the time Nzant posted, it was obvious that Sookie can turn vamps back to humans. Bill, after being kicked out of the truck, does not instantly die after draining sookie’s body. That happened before his theory.

They are continually foreshadowing in this series. But, what I am watching for are all the nuances that allow the story to progress. Like never seeing the grandma’s body or lafayette saying “Goodbye Mrs. Larabie” or whatever. Those are the cues to watch for.

Also, the red heads original husband. She said he was “Pure evil”. Pure evil could be the head vamp but that story line is boring. Sookie’s grandma is interesting but unlikely. Lafayette is still the front runner.

You must realize they will throw a “hard to explain” curveball with the headvamp character to throw you off the scent.

I don’t think Arlene meant her very first husband (God only know how many there was) but the last one Renee, who turned out to be a psychopathic killer who killed Granny.

@justGuessing Vampires can’t reproduce.

what if it ends up being Arlenes baby!? ... Renee only reborn by arlene

Renee was not a vampire, just your regular run of the mill psychotic killer. Or am I forgetting something?

I thought the last episode was the worst in a long while. Sam and Russel did things that were out of character and implausible to me. Russel getting on TV and killing the show host on national TV after giving 500k to the organization seems so out of character for him. Sam smashing the probable panther shifter father and putting him into the hospital also was very out of character for him. Bill going to fairy land was very good and Sookie with Hadley’s son thread was fine. Franlin’s return was scary (excellent acting) and I am sure glad Jason finally killed him. Jesus and Lafayette – give me a break already. They are not the first vampires either one of them. Lafayette was under the menaud power and was also tortured almost to death by Eric. I am sick of seeing them make out as well. Keep them in the closet. Now, two episodes when Eric killed Talbot – that was how it should be ie. scare you that Eric would have to go gay and then turn to the kill to get the crown / hurt Russel. Out of characters we know I still have to go with Queen Sophia until proven otherwise.

What about Nan Flanagan as the OV?

Hmmm….. Now that’s entirely possible. I had never thought about Nan being the original vampire. It opens a lot of possibilities there…. Plus she’s a no bullshit bitch. I like her.

Did anyone think about.. Tara’s mother?

Hmmmm….

Sam has been rather violent lately, and it is hawt. I thought from the beginning that Nan was the head bitch in charge. I like her a lot too. She’s a whole like me. LoL I don’t really think that Lafayette’s mom is the OV. That would mean he would be a half-breed and there is no evidence of that. Especially when he WAS under the Maenad’s influence. But I suppose that wouldn’t be impossible if he WERE a half-breed. And I rather adore Lafayette finally having a love interest. They both deserve it. Let em out the closet to play! I agree that Bill going to faery land was cool and can’t wait for them to actually confirm what she is. Sookie’s Gran being the OV is absolutely ridiculous! They carried her out in a body bag! Rene ain’t it either. I’m also wondering what’s up with Andy eyeballin that bag of V vials. I can’t wait til Eric kills Russell….gawd Eric is gorgeous! and I am REALLY GUNNA MISS TALBOT!!!! I absolutely loved him!

I’m sorry this was so rambley for lack of a better word I was trying to get all of it out of my head before I forgot it! You guys are great BTW! I have so enjoyed this thread!! =)

Andy is an alcoholic who stopped drinking, but it was never mentioned he goes to AA meetings. Soooooo, he will replace one addiction with another….

Once he starts doing V, I bet his broken arm heals real fast too!!! LOL!!

Werd. LoL

Yeah… as an addict myself all I can say is once you look at something with “that” look in your eye it’s only a matter of time before you do it

I don’t get how Renee could be the father. She’s what? 6–12 weeks pregnant? So, since Gram died, all that Maynad (or however it’s spelled) and now all this drama has happened?! Really?

Who knows what the time frame is? Could be only 3 months for all I know, since it never snows or seems to get cold who the hell even knows what month it is??

These people in Bon Temp lead very very busy lives, don’t you all think now???

How did I get a gelly fish as my avatar?

Muhaha, I just found some more shorties for those that haven’t seen them :)

Six easy steps to survive a werewolf attack

You can find em all on youtube by searching for True Blood Postmortem

Just re-read my last post, I meant to say don’t you think that all these people lead very busy lives?

For funsies:

http://ihadheard.com/2010/08/sookie-stackhouse-gets-dpd-on-the-cover-of-rolling-stone

The link was for a newscast with Flanagan and a congressmen not about werewolf attacks, No matter is was good, so realll!!!!

Wow I was outta town and JUST got to watch the new episode! The frst Vamp can’t be Sophie Ann…Eric is stronger and older then her and he was made by Godrick. I don’t thing it’s Jesus and definatly not Lafayette, I think it’s gotta be Nancy Flanigan. She is a really powerful vamp obviously. And her maker is never mentioned ect. Haha I’m going to miss Franklin, and Talbot. Can’t wait till next week! And with the whole time period thing the show never jumps time, it ALWAYS picks up right where it left off so this whole 3 seasons I think have had to be about 3 months in “True Blood” time.

@tblamer88 Did you missread the entire discussion? We were trying to figure out Nznat’s idea for the true blood series based on the information present vs the information of the show.

@tblamer88 ~ We were all just having fun tying to figure out nznat’s storyline as well as what’s gunna happen with the Alan Ball vs the Sookie Stackhouse novels storyline. Just a friendly discussion and opinions/intrests in we think should happen. Its not meant to be taken so seriously. Take deep breaths and cool yer jets, turbo lol. Its all in good fun. =)

If it wasn’t for nznat’s opinion we would not have nothing to talk about. LOL!!

Well, two more days and I guess we’ll get an explination… unless they leave Bill and Sookie out of the entire episode :)

Not that I see it happening, but an episode dedicated and fully centered on our favorite and ever so cute Baby Vamp Jessica would be much appreciated…

ONE MORE HOUR N.Y. TIME!!

holy cow…eric and sookie finally kiss! the kiss wasnt as good as i expected but i wanted it to happen anyway.

who else was freaked out by russells encounter with the hooker?

Also, i think angel and lafayettes experience on V was interesting. apparently it meant that they both had powerful relatives?

ok…so why did eric turn on sookie? i guess he realized what his assistant (forgot her name) was right. give her to the king and save himself. anyone have any thoughts?

Yugh. This show may just be jumping the shark. Sad panda. Not a great episode.

But we have confirmation on this thread’s actual question: Sookie Stackhouse is a faerie.

Didn’t Bill say something about her being part Alien also? What is up with that???

it wasnt the best episode but a lot happened . sookie was revealed, crystal was revealed, they spoke about jesus and lafayettes family, tara kissed jason, jason admitted he shot tara’s ex, russell went crazy, sookie and eric kissed, etc.

Blah, Blah, Vampire Stuff, Blah

I can’t tell you how much I enjoyed Sookie’s reaction to the faerie news… “I’m a faerie? That’s so fuckin’ lame!”

Anyone have an opinion on that alien thing Bill mentioned?

as a cat lover, I wouldn’t mind a girlfriend like Crystal :-)

its settled, russell is the original vampire…eric said hes “the oldest and most powerfull vampire in the world” so its GOT too be him right?

I think of I found a huge an error in the story line… In the first season Sam ‘invites’ Sookie to read his mind anytime she wants. If he really did kill two people would he jave really done that ? I mean, would he have risked her finding out in some unguarded moment ?

@willo142 That Eric knows off, ofcourse… who’s to say Eric knows everything… Russell is 3000 years old, Eric ‘only’ a 1000. So it’s possible Eric isn’t fully in the know.

OH come one, another secret Bill. Havent we heard a couple of times already “dont trust Bill”.
I wonder why Eric chained up Sookie. Does he expect she’ll start firing lighting out of her ears if she gets pis*ed off enough and in doing so help him with Mister badass King Russell?

Eric wants Bill’s help that’s why he went and saw them. When they pretty much told him to get lost Sookie had to go and find out what Eric meant about “not trusting Bill”. By locking Sookie up Eric knows Bill will come after her and because Eric needs Bills help he will threaten Sookie’s life in order for Bill to help him. Eric is much older and stronger and he will remind Bill of that when Bill will say something like “I will die before I let u do anything to her” blah blah same old line Eric won’t kill him but will guarantee Sookie’s safety if Bill helps him….

I recall Jesus saying “aren’t you going to invite me in” when he showed up at Lafayette’s house…right (vamp?)? What a fun discussion! So, what is everyone still thinking Lafayette and Jesus story is?

what about sookies grandma? how does anyone know she is really dead? and there had to be something for her grandfather to want her being a fiery, right?

Ok, so many things.

1) The alien part. Sookie is not “also” part alien. See, she asked Bill what the other names for faerie are, and one of them is alien. It doesn’t mean that she’s an alien AND a faerie, it means that the Vampires aren’t sure if faeries are even FROM Earth. Thus Sookie may indeed (according to Bill’s very limited knowledge) be an alien. This is somewhat supported in the books, since there’s a whole other dimension, or world, that the faerie folk inhabit. So yes, by some stretch of the imagination, they are aliens. I actually figure there’s another explanation, but I’ll save that for later in this response.

2) NZNat is full of crap. It’s ok, really, since we had some fun. But the whole discussion about the “first vampire” seems 100% irrelevant at this juncture. Both Jesus and Lafayette descend from witches (not the same thing as Wiccans, as the new waitress is) and I’m already seeing the storyline develop here. Jesus was overly dramatic in his “don’t let the dark side getcha” diatribe to Lafayette, and then we see that his grandfather was a dark wizard (but not Voldemort). Lafayette will (in the next season, I suppose) activate his magical heritage and either become pure evil or Jesus will. Whichever, the one who doesn’t will have to stop the one who does. Regardless, Jesus will die. It’s just the way this show works.

3) Sophie Ann. She’s got something up her sleeve, still. She’s been waiting on Sookie, which really doesn’t make too much sense, but there’s a reason for it. Honestly, if Sookie is a faerie (or even if she possibly was, according to Sophie Ann’s knowledge) then the Queen would have (in all logical reasoning) just gone and drank her up without much hesitation. She’d walk in the sun for a few minutes and realize the burn began. End of story. There was no need to send Bill to romance her and confuse us all. So either there’s more to this, or Sophie Ann is a complete idiot (hard to believe at 700 years old) or the writing of this show is just bad (not entirely impossibe—did you see season 2?).

4) Eric chained up Sookie. Yes, this is weird. He’s got a jones for her something bad, that much is obviously true. This seems to indicate that he’s got something planned, although to the person who suggested it was bait for Bill—what would be the point? Bill is 100% worthless against Russell. Period. Bill’s about 120, and Eric is about 1,000. It’d be like an adult human attempting to get help from premature newborn infant against a rhinoceros in a blood-rage. Really, it wouldn’t be of use. However, Sookie seems to have some abilities that Russell either respects or covets, and so there may be an angle to work through. He’s chosen a stupid prison, though, since Russell can waltz in any time and grab her up. Perhaps Russell still believes that the VLA is protecting Eric, we’ll have to see.

5) Sookie’s grandmother is dead. Really dead. Gone. She will only appear in flashbacks.

6) Sookie’s grandfather (Earl Stackhouse) was part faerie, at the least. His death has not been completely explained, and I do think he’s destined for a return spot. Either he is 100% faerie and faked his own death, or he was part faerie (and actually, could still be alive). If you want to look for Sookie’s grandparents, he’s the one to expect.

7) This season is about to wrap up fairly quickly. Russell will be killed, Eric will be revealed, and (god I hope) Jessica and Hoyt will find some measure of happiness. They’re easily a more interesting couple than Sookie and Bill. Jessica is darling, and Hoyt is that “ever-strong” man who wants nothing but to stand by his love. Plus she kills and he’s got an IQ slightly above a tomato. Still, I dig them.

8) Jason is an idiot. And don’t get me wrong, I love Sookie; she’s totally awesome. But I would never take advice from her on moral or relationship issues. Jesus, they should have just wheeled Tara into an insane asylum rather than have Jason tell her, now of all times, that he was the one that killed “Eggs” (a deplorable nickname, to be sure). Idiots, the both of them. That wasn’t something that helped Tara, it destroyed her. She’s had a rough week.

9) Crystal is “a whole new dimension of trash.” Truer words…

10) I dig Nan. Really, she’s a no bullshit bitch. I hope she survives this season.

.

I need to think about this, but I like your style and non nonsense response…

I pretty much agree with everything you just said. I couldn’t have said it better myself. =) you are my hero as far as this thread goes.

Seems I was partialy right according to the new Post Mortem… It’s not Lillith but Cane himself who is the first Vampire and the Mark of Cane the bite of Lillith (as per the Bible)

The New Post Mortem

OK so just to go off the page a bit, in the last episode Jessica said her nails will grow back, like she meant straight away like her virginity does?? If so why does Eric’s hair not grow back, that doesn’t seem to add up right. Im reading way to much into it I know, but it seems once your turned you stay looking that way for ever. Jessica was a virgin when she was made she will always be one, so really they shouldn’t of changed Eric’s appearance.

These kind of questions are best avoided or in the end you just end up with too many inconsistencies and it might ruin the show for you :)

Spoiler guess here: So the reason why sookie gets locked up is to offer her to Russell. Russell will drink her blood and become temporarily human. Eric will kill him then. That is how he can weaken and defeat russel.

Bill will eventually heal sookie just before it is too late.

And that should pretty much end your season.

Damn I’m good.

haha, are you sure you are not a writer for the show?

I did not like the way Sam’s brother was lurking behind those bushes watching Jessica and Hoyt..

OMG!!

wow what an ending on tonights show

JustGuessing: Almost, but no cigar. The blood doesn’t make them human, it literally acts like vampiric sunscreen (lol to Sookie). The older a vampire is, the faster he burns (re: Godric). Eric will take longer to fry, which gives him a slight edge to escape once Russell is bacon.

There is literally 5 minutes of action left in this season, everything else is a prelude to next season (the demonic face that Jesus had, the white trash were-panthers, the football team, etc).

See you all next season!

^ what he said

Geez sorry for taking a guess at what might have happened clearly some people have seen more episodes than others

So what do you guys think is the deal with Jesus ? Is he really evil or is it just symbolic, like representing a bad influence? It scared the heck out of me with that face..

I am thinking that maybe Lafayette and Jesus’s ancestors practiced different forms of magic. LaLa’s was White or Good and Jesus’s was Bad or Vodoo. It will be a battle between good and evil and we all know Lafayette will win… IMO…

whats up with godric in the next episode?

What are you talking about? Godric isn’t in the next episode.

They did show a quick scene with Godric in it last night.

Yup i saw Godric to, maybe he comes to Eric is some kinda vision when he is burning up.

Sookie is part fairy. Didn’t you guys see the new episode?! Sookie’s fairy and telepathic bloodline also runs through other parts of her family(the ones that are still alive). Her brother Jason does not have fairy powers.

@emandem- This question was asked a year ago. No one knew what Sookie was then.

emandem, welcome to our blog. Did you read all the previous posts and dates they were written at all before you posted?

Hi Everyone, I check back here all the time. Never missed an episode, and no…have not read the books- yet. However, has anyone discussed who is Russell’s maker? Does anyone know?

Good question, no I don’t recall it ever being mentioned on the show. I also have not read the books.

What was the deal with Crystal’s father not liking the idea of getting vampire blood to restore him after Sam jumped him? Why would the Human / Panthers not want vampire blood? Perhaps they just do not want anybody knowing about them? If Crystal has to breed her cousin to keep their kind going there can not be too many of them. Perhaps they were also wiped out close to extinction by vampires or would quickly become dependent and hooked to vampire blood like the werewolves?

I would think that having vampire blood mixed into his own blood no longer makes him “pure”. He now has mixed blood and his pedigree is no longer pure were-panther but sort of like a mutt…

So, I guess this blog is finished. Too bad, I enjoyed it!!

Well, they showed a repeat last Sunday, but there will be a new one next week. :)

Last true blood, nooo!! I cant wait till summer for the next series, I’m gonna have withdrawals

Me too!

If you are having withdrawls it would be a good time to feed your addiction by reading the Books :)

I have the books, have read 4 need to start on the rest. I never get time tho :(

Sookie ends up in Fairyland, or perhaps she is depressed and is dreaming….........No Bill in Sookie’s life after she threw him out of her life after Eric forcing Bill to come clean. Bill starts off next season in a death match with the Queen of Louisiana. King of Mississippi is presumably trapped in quicksand for about 100 years, or not…......... Eric was rescued by Pam from the cement and will have next season to get back at Bill / continue their hatred for each other. Godric has reemerged as an angel or at least in Eric’s mind. Perhaps he will have an increased role next season. Tara is now running around in a decent old Mercedes – hopefully she will somehow get killed off next season. I hope they just forget about her mother. The cook homo is having V withdrawl. The partner homo admits he is a witch. They will explore that avenue next season, unfortunately. Jason is now going to protect the panther clan, at least until his girlfriend reappears next season. Andy Bellefleur may try V? Sam got his money back by killing or at least maiming his brother. Maybe Sam is comming back to normality? Jessica and Hoyt are together, but why that wierd broken / laying doll when the scene shifted from them. I guess it portends bad things or at least a fractioning of their relationship next season. Hoyt’s Mom is now joining the Fellowship of the Sun, looking to get Jessica. Perhaps that could be interesting next season. Alcide now owes Bill nothing and presumably is going back to Mississippi to run with the dogs, but maybe there is an opening to revisit Sookie. Nan Flanagan is speaking for the Vampires and is relatively removed from Bon Temps. Arlene can not get rid of her evil baby but that is a thread I would like to see die….....

Next season I look forward to seeing more of “Fairyland” and watching Sookie’s powers grow. I look forward to Sookie and Bill getting back together. I look forward to Bill and Eric’s rivalry, Eric’s dungeon and club. Seeing more of Pam would be ok. Seeing Jessica and Hoyt work out would be ok. I would not mind seeing Hoyt turned into a vampire by Jessica. I look forward to the over all guidance of Godric the vampire angel. I look forward to seeing how Sam straightens out his life. Jason and the Panther thread, maybe ok. In any event I look forward to the twists and turns of next season. Like posters above I can not wait!

…

I thought the season finale was a little… anti-climatic. It was a bit disappointing, too much like a regular episode.

@augustlan Ditto. I didn’t feel any ummph from it. Is that a word? It definitely needed some more drama.

@casheroo My husband didn’t feel the ‘oomph’, either. I hope the show hasn’t already jumped the shark. That would make me sad.

@augustlan- Isn’t it your job to make your husband feel the ‘oomph’?

@AstroChuck Hah! I suppose so. :D
