Line 45:
** Essentially all of the vampires receive this sort of treatment from their fans--none of them are decent people, and all of them have spent decades (or centuries) torturing, murdering, and raping innocents. Arguably part of the appeal of True Blood is that they're all pretty bad, and fans learn to accept that. But there are those who don't, and downplay all negative or evil aspects of their favorite characters.
* [[Disproportionate Retribution]]: From the episode 39 commentary, Jason {{spoiler|getting gangraped by the women of Hotshot}} is supposed to be comeuppance for him objectifying women. [[Sarcasm Mode|Because, you know, you totally deserve THAT for being a horndog.]]
* [[Dropped a Bridge
* [[Ear Worm]]: Several, from the [[Theme Tune]] "Bad Things" by Jace Everett to Snoop Dogg's tribute, "Oh, Sookie".
* [[Ensemble Darkhorse]]: Lafayette was a minor character in the books, however, his popularity lead to him {{spoiler|''not'' being killed off}}.
Line 80:
** Bill, Eric and Pam arguably count as well. They never got any comeuppance for attacking and terrorizing Marnie back before she had any villainous intentions--even the curses that Eric and Pam received were removed.
* [[Kick the Dog]]: When {{spoiler|Hoyt breaks up with Jessica, he scathingly throws in her face all the things she'll never experience as a vampire, like having children or sex without a hymen}}.
** This may be [[Kick the Son of
* [[Les Yay]]: Back in season 1, Pam helps Sookie clean up after she is nearly killed by Longshadow, she lingers while extracting a piece from Sookie's cleavage. She then smiles and says "I'm beginning to understand the fuss everybody's making over you." Cue the ''awkward'' pause.
** When Daphne told Maryann how much she'd missed her.
Line 120:
* [[Rescued From the Scrappy Heap]]: Jessica, though still sometimes annoying, has gotten much more sympathetic since she visited her family. Not to mention her developing relationship with Hoyt is seven different kinds of cute. Others liked her better when [[Worldwide Punonemon|she had more bite]].
** The general response to season 4 is that Bill's much more interesting, fun and cool without Sookie weighing him down.
* [[Rooting for
* [[The Scrappy]]: Lorena! She's back in Season 3, and is just as annoying as ever. {{spoiler|But now she won't be a problem, having been staked by Sookie as of Episode 7.}}
** Tara, to some.
Line 167:
** Season 4 Finale "And When I Die": {{spoiler|Jesus' death, Hoyt and Jason ending their friendship, Sookie having to say goodbye to Adele's spirit, Sookie dumping Eric, and Tara's [[Heroic Sacrifice]].}}
* [[They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot]]: Not so much a plot as a character. Franklin, the psychotic vampire detective! {{spoiler|May he rest in peace}}.
* [[Trapped
* [[Too Cool to Live]]: {{spoiler|Godric}}
* [[Uncanny Valley]]: Instead of stylizing the characters, some of the comics' art styles tend to try to appear as realistic as possible and yet still manage to be cheap enough for a monthly production. The result is...not very nice to look at.
