Personally if I was Sookie I dont think I personally could forgive him but Sookie has proven repeatedly that she forgives way to easy. I things if Bill had explained everything as soon as he developed feelings that Sookie would have probably forgiven him right away knowing that he had to do what the queen commanded. I think what hurt her the most was that he would have never told her if it hadnt been for eric. As for the show, I've learned to try to look at it completely different than the books because the first episode of this season blew the book out of the water by not killing Layaffete. I like Bill in the show just not in the book. I love the whole storyline with Jessica. I think its cute watching bill trying to be a father figure.

I will always be a Bill/Stephen fan no matter how the show develops. There is nothing wrong with loving Eric but come on people, stop with the snide remarks concerning the amazing actor Stephen Moyer and his wonderful portrayal of Bill just because you have a thing for Eric. You people give fans a bad name. Enjoy the show for what it is. Thanks Carole, you took the words out of my mouth. I will always be a Bill/Stephen fan no matter how the show develops.

The Eric/Sookie fanatics seem to hijack any topic and use it as an opportunity to viciously jump all over Bill and/or Stephen Moyer. That's fine to have your opinion and be pro-Eric, but remember that we're talking about the show. There are plenty of us who have read the books and prefer Bill. His supposed "weak character" consists of following his maker, whom he cannot say no to, or following his vampire nature when starving, neither of which seem to be that unforgivable. As for the "betrayal" - there are a thousand or more love stories which start off with the lovers getting together under false pretenses or deceptive circumstances but falling truly in love (Taming of the Shrew, Can't Buy Me Love, etc. etc.), but I don't see the same kind of vitriol directed at them.

Once again, the show is not exactly following the books, it shouldn't, it stands on its own. I love Bill and Stephen Moyer who plays him so well. It hurts to hear him called names, he does not deserve that. I am also a fan of Eric, and you all must be patient. I believe Eric will play a much bigger role in the seasons to come. So please stop with the name calling and awful comments, they are immature and uncalled for. Just enjoy the show and be grateful to HBO, Alan Ball, and all the wonderful actors who bring this amazing story to life. I do not understand all the anger here.

One if you've read the books I don't see how anyone could like Bill. Which is something I don't see them changing in the book. As for Jessica, it would be better if Sookie was in the picture more because she is someone Jessica could relate too. I actually would have to agree with Maggie.

Its too bad that you feel the need to belittle someones opinion. Its ok to disagree with me, it is not ok to call names. As an adult I would have thought you would know better.

It just makes you look psycho. Was this very cute and witty piece about Eric in any way shape or form? No. So run along. Thank you for the funny little editorial, I liked it.

Just can't stand the character and frankly, Sookie is much better suited to Eric! As too Jessica, if Bill would get a clue and have Sookie be a more active part in Jessicas life, then Jessica's transition would be much smoother! Bill, ick!
