Another excellent trailer: It makes it look soooo good (as well as insinuates that we might be getting to the end of the series)

Ya'll ready for the new season to premiere tonight? I'm curious to see what Jurnee Smollett brings to the show and how it will be without Alan Ball.

I had no idea that they were doing this live show with the cast. Who is this Retta person? This whole social media thing is so odd to me. I am tech say, but social media is beyond me.

Alex Alex Skarsgard is very funny.

Wow, the threesome with Alcide, Hurricane, and that other chick was pretty hot.

Retta Ann! She was on talking Dead and she's a reg. on Parks & Rec -- she tweets about the shows she's watching and I love that more networks/shows are including her.

Also, how is the show?

It is okay so far. It has had its moments, but overall it is just alright.

Jason is so stupid. LOL!

Better than Ball or too soon to tell?

To soon to tell, but the stories in this episode were tighter than the usual scattered episodes Ball subjected us to. I will never understand how the same man who gave us the amazing Six Feet Under is responsible for the hot mess that is True Blood.

LOL its such camp -- SFU and TB are at opposite sides of the television spectrum. But the mess this show has become since like S3 has been too much.

Thank god for the previews bc I forgot alot of what happened last season

Sam's gf is dead....its about time

"I dont know about the world, but Im about to end your face" LOL "Who the hell is Mary Poppins and can I kill her" Love Pam

Why the heck did Sookie tell Eric to stop the car when Bill came out of the building. I was like no idiot, keep driving!

It was ridiculous that Sookie told Eric to stop the car and he did. RME. However, I was surprised when she staked Bill to save Eric because she is always going on about loving Bill.

Oh, Retta and the fangs was cute and funny.

Is Tara still alive? That's really all I care about at this point....with this being the last season Im really rooting for her to survive and live after the final credits roll...if only to spite the haters on ign....

Tara is still alive. It has not been confirmed that this is the last season, but it does seem likely.

Didn't she die last year? I haven't watched the premier yet but I thought she was shot on screen by those Obama people or something. Gah I better watch the recaps before the episode, I always have trouble remembering details.

Is it noticeable so far that Alan Ball isn't showrunner? Or is it the same campy fun but bloody mess as usual? I do kinda hope this is the last season--it seems weird to say, but I think the show is running out of steam.

A show like True Blood can only last so long. Something "major" happens in every episode to the same handful of characters. That just isn't sustainable for more than...5 years. So let's see how this season pans out.

And no, Ball's presence isn't noticed at all. The show is still insane and bloody and all over the place.

I can't believe they expect us to care about Alcide or the werewolves, there's barely a story there. I did like his new girlfriend calling herself his headbitch but that is not a story.

It's hard to care about any development outside of the vampire world. Werewolves, shapeshifters, fairies? Don't care.
