Waiting sucks is RIGHT!

We know we don't have too much longer. We know that we should just wait patiently and not cause a fuss.

We know, we know.

BUT WE CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE! WE WANT OUR WEEKLY DOES OF ASKARS NOW!!!

From what we've already seen of season five, there is nothing not to love about the return of True Blood this summer. Sex, suspense, supernatural stone cold foxes galore … and did we mention, Russell Edgington is BACK! And he's bringing Chris Meloni with him!

Oh, this is too good!!!

Ch-ch-check out the video (above) to sink your fangs into the latest trailer for the new season.

The blood is pumping now! Let's get this season started!!!

Hmmmm! I don't know, doesn't look that promising. This show was the very best, season1.
So glad Russell's back though.

I sure hope Sookie this season has her zapping ability at her command. I am so sick of her just not understanding it and it 'popping out' every now and again. She could be very useful and a powerful ally with it under control. And that's it. The rest of the upcoming season, from what I have seen in trailers, read elsewhere, man, just sounds like more of the same soap opera horseshit that has infected the show since season two. Season one was the best by far in balancing character development with an interesting season story arc. There were hardly any wasted moments on insignificant side stories. Now all we seem to get are the side stories with an itty bitty little thread of an arc supporting them. Well, the thread is going to snap, show runners, if not this season then full out flat on it's face next.

I really think that is Eric kissing Sookie and I think that is Bill kissing Nora (Eric's sister through Godic). I think the backstory with Eric and Pam will be great. They will destroy this season if they have Sookie go with Alcide, it was bad enough how they ended it last season.
@lastonestanding—It would be nice if Sookie finally gets her powers under control, it is starting to get a little annoying already.
I am sorry that I blame Alan Ball for a lot of the past seasons messes, but in reality it has been his fault. He has had this thing for Bill and Sookie and has never denied it, even knowing that the majority of the fans wanted Eric and Sookie. I am hoping now that he has stepped down (finally), the writers and directors will bring us back to character driven story lines.
No matter what though, this is the only show I watch on television, so June 10th cannot come quick enough.
