For the person who ''gave up on True Blood'' halfway through Season 1, why are you even putting your two cents in? You said there should be action and there should be this and that. Um. It was the first episode. Can't much happen there that leads into the entire season. If you've read the book series (and I'm guessing that you haven't) you would know what this season is based around. And common sense should tell you that they can't include every single aspect of action/mystery into the first hour. We have 3 more months to get to the conclusion. Let it ride. I thoroughly enjoyed the premiere. It was one that proved that season 3 was going to be crazy and exciting!
