Tomorrow night im leaving for a 4-day trip to Disneyworld then from there im going down to Miami for a 7-day cruise of the caribbean islands with my family. I'll bring my Macbook with me so i'll be able to get on from time to time to chat but I doubt i'll be able to view the next 2 True Blood episodes (in peace anyways) meaning im gonna have to stay away from the forums till I get a chance to watch them when I return.

i'll miss y'all!

Such an amazingly poignant episode.

It really says somthing about the quality of the show when they can pull a heavy episode like this only 6 episodes into the first season. Most shows are still "breaking in" the characters in the middle of the first season, but were so past this that it feels like we already know and have a deep connection with every one of the characters (as if we've known them for 3,4 seasons already)so when a tragedy happens like this it hits you even harder and you sympathize so much more with each character. Some people complained in the beginning of the series because there was too much character development and not enough story, well I think everyone can now appreciate why the story was handled in such a manner and the storylines now 'shine' because we know each character all the more.
