Season 3 followed the plot of Book 3 of the Southern Vampire novels. Werewolves n were-panther were introduced, fairy godmother, as well as the Vampire King of Mississippi, Russell Edgington, whose character was ambitious yet merciless. Crystal was Jason, Sookie's brother, new girlfriend in this season. her family of were-panthers were from Hotshot, an isolated area out of town. Sookie discovered that she was part fairy, which explained the power she experienced in Season 2 (2009). while the past seasons focused mostly on Sookie's love affair, Season 3 (2010) did not. vampire Bill was summoned at the early episodes, to meet with vampire king Russell. Sam revealed to a few close friends of the shape-shifter he was, while tracked down his past families. Tara was again faced with various life challenges, both emotionally n physically, threatened to haunt her forever.
one of the most adorable couple in the series worth mentioning, has to be Hoyt n his vampire girlfriend Jessica. they were the most believing couple, having the best chemistry. they broke-up for the last season after challenged by Hoyt's mother, n finally decided to continue dating at the second half of this season. vampire queen Sophie-Anne battled Russell, pulling vampire Bill n Eric along with their political warfare. while the vampire politics continued to bore me as it did last season, it was fun having the whole series expanding its coverage, focusing on more than 1 type of supernatural being!

Not a fan or frequent watcher of this series but that synopsis indeed sounds interesting.
ReplyDeleteI was just offered today to translate TRUE BLOOD for the readers in my country but I refused since I'm not into vampires :) Hope I won't regret my decision :)
ReplyDeleteYeah, the synopsis sure makes it sound interesting.
ReplyDeleteI tried to watch this once, in the beginning, and it drove me crazy. YOU make it sound great. =D
ReplyDeletejacc:
ReplyDeletei myself often only watch series that are completed, even for anime! i can barely stand being left hanging.
dezmond:
translate? as in subbing its series? with english? or translating its novels?
lina:
it was one of the most interesting season if compared to the previous 2.
rashelle:
thanks! i agree on the first few episodes of Season 1 being very intimidating. it was so freaky i had my second thought. but really after that, it wasn't that scary anymore!
translating novels :) I'm a book translator. And my publisher has convinced me to do it, so I will be translating your favourite saga whole spring and summer :) If I become a vampire you will be my first victim :)))
ReplyDeleteOMG! The last picture....look at his hand...and he is laughing? T_T
