John Hodgman was on the cover of the Improper Bostonian this month (that's a free local magazine, for those non-Bostonians among you) and there was a little bit of the interview that just had to be transcribed ( Read more... )

Me too! I don't get why everyone complains about her. She's my favourite. Well one of them.

I love the show but have spent like zero time in the fandom. So people complain about her? Weird! I mean she's a total bitch but in a completely awesome entertaining way. She's one of my favorites too, although that show is so good I have like a million. XD Eric is my favorite-favorite, but then there's Pam and Lafayette and Gordic (Godriiiiiiiic! *weeps*) and Sophie-Anne and...yeah, the list goes on and on. *grin*

Well I don't spend much time in fandom but I spend time on ONTD even if I don't watch any True Blood comms atm. People HATE her. I think it's a lot because of the actress no matter what people say about being able to seperate it. I don't know but apparently she dated ASkars and is a bitch or something? No matte what people say about disliking her because she's different from the books I still think it's because they don't like the actress.

Personally I didn't know the actress at all before she was on True Blood and I don't really care for the books so I loved her.

Oh I love all of those too except maybe Sophie-Anne. Ah it's been so long since I've watched True Blood. That's what a long break does to you I guess.

I knew the actress but only from Across the Universe/ I thought she was fine in that; I had no strong feelings about her either way, so I guess that would work not to prejudice me for or against her character and as a result I could just enjoy her.

I don't care for the books either. I saw the show first and liked it so much I thought I'd give them a try, but...I got through the first one and tried the second, but I got as far as them killing off Lafayette and went D: then flipped ahead and realized Godric wasn't even IN IT and went fuuuuuck this. *g* I think the show is ten times better.

I thought Sophie-Anne was the queen? I know they never name her in the show but I thought I'd seen her referred to that way and I thought people knew it from the books. It's quite possible I'm confused, though.

Aw finally! Everyone is raving about the books but I think it's just barley better than Twilight. I don't know I started the first book before the show was even announced and I didn't like it. I'm not about to like it now because I watch the show.

There you see I forget stuff all the time. I confused her with that other woman...that icy one. D: I guess I need to re-watch.
