No, you don't have to love them but UNLESS you've read the books you have no argument as to whether they are being played as they are written. It does. I wasn't arguing about whether or not they're being played as they are written, I'm arguing that they suck, and you seem to have a problem with that. What I don't understand is why it matters that they are being played as they're written, when apparently, the entire rest of the show is different from the books. Everyone is like "Sookie is not supposed to be a bombshell!1!" and "Bill is not supposed to be a hunk!!1!" And yet, Tara and Lafayette are apparently not even supposed to be in it at all, so if they can make them a part of the cast, I don't see why they couldn't have done something extra to make Sookie and Bill not so bland.

I haven't read the books, nor do I intend to, but from a strictly tv viewer perspective...Sookie, Bill and Jason (to a lesser degree Tara) leave me a bit cold and I find them more than a little bit annoying to be honest. THe love story between Bill and Sookie is just so overwraught! It is almost toooooo much! I like the supporting characters better than Sookie, Bill and Jason. I don't give a flying fuck how they are written, my opinion is based purely on the characters I am seeing on the screen. And based on that: Lafayette, Sam and Maryann are what keep me interested at this point.

She has several boyfriends throughout the books and isn't with any of them for a huge amount of time. She's a girl in her 20's dating like a girl in her 20's (plus blood drinking).

I don't get it. SO what if Sookie doesn't appeal to everyone? The beauty of an ensemble cast is there is something for everyone.

I like Anna Paquin's earnest approach to Sookie. She centers the series. Give her some credit -- this is not easy to do, and a lesser actress would be chewing up the scenery in this role. She's not unlike SMG using Buffy to center BtVS -- and then let the whacko sidekicks run the show. Until it's time to strike, acting chops-wise. Bill I could take or leave. He's no Spike, that's fer sure, but he is slightly more interesting than good Angel in the early days. Maybe that's why I'm not alone in fixating on Maryann. Or those of you with Lafayette for that matter. Eric even. It's going to be the Scoobies and Big Bads that illuminate this series, and Sookie as portrayed is spot on for making that happen.

Spoiler tags please! J/K. ;) I love EVERYONE on True Blood. Well, maybe not Andy.

LOL at you asking this question. :) I like Sookie and I don't mind Bill. I just can't stand them together. Their relationship is too one sided. Bill does something, Sookie gets pissed so Bill apologizes. He's a pussy whipped Vamp.
