*Quotes about B/S*
"Part of the appeal of the story is that its a Huge love story"
- Alan Ball

"He respects her so much, she is different from any mortal or vampire he has ever met that he can't stop thinking about what she is.
He respects her and doesn't want to take her onto his side, i think he is different in that aspect".
- Stephen Moyer

"It's a big old fashioned romance."
- Alan Ball Interview

"One of my favorite storylines in True Blood that I get to work with musically is the relationship between Sookie and Bill. There's just something very organic about it, very melodic, and it seems to really accent the journey they take together."
- Nathan Barr, Composer

"It's a really compelling story. There's a very interesting love story at the heart of it."
- Alan Ball

"The [sexual] tension between Bill and Sookie is quite palpable,"
- Stephen Moyer

"We've all seen vampire/mortal romances on the small screen before, but the chemistry between Sookie (Anna Paquin) and Bill (Stephen Moyer) on HBO's new vampire thriller "True Blood" is so palpable and intense that those other pairings seem paltry by comparison, making this series one of the best this fall."
- det News

“There's an immediate fascination and attraction between Bill and Sookie..."
- Anna Paquin

“There's an immediate fascination and attraction between Bill and Sookie if for no other reason than anyone else is terrified of him and she's just dying to go up and take his drink order,”

"She falls for him and it's the first relationship she's ever been in and for the first time ever she can just relax," Paquin has said of her character. "But it's dangerous because he's a vampire and there's a lot of controversy surrounding that particular issue in their society.

"She instantly connects with him in a way that she's never been able to with anyone else. "

- Anna Paquin

I'll add in stuff as we go along.

***Andie*** · 10-15-2008, 11:27 PM

Thanks for the new thread Jen

The opening post looks pretty good

for 10 threads

**Guinevere** · 10-15-2008, 11:29 PM

Thanks Andie! I still have things to add in, but wanted to get it posted first.

***Nad*** · 10-15-2008, 11:32 PM

Thanks for the new thread, Jen

**DanceWithLife** · 10-16-2008, 12:13 AM

Awesome new thread! Thank you!

If you want, I can try and help you with some quotes

**Guinevere** · 10-16-2008, 12:21 AM

Yeah, that would be great.

I am currently going through the EW interview, so if you could find any other quotes from other interviews, that would be great.

**DanceWithLife** · 10-16-2008, 12:27 AM

I'll start my search

**Guinevere** · 10-16-2008, 12:31 AM

Awesome, Good Luck!

Here are some...

"It's a big old fashioned romance." - Alan Ball Interview

Awww, Jenn the OP is beautiful. Good job hun. I love it.

sanna_o75 · 10-16-2008, 01:56 AM

Ooh, thanks for the thread! Yay

The opening looks great.

I still think everyone who posts here regularly should write something about why we love them so we can put that in the opening-I have already written mine

Can just be a few lines

Also, another suggestion is that we can put the nr of the thread in the opening aswell. Like for example "Welcome to the 11th Bill & Sookie appreciation thread"

I havew another quote by Anna to put in the opening

Quote:

“There's an immediate fascination and attraction between Bill and Sookie if for no other reason than anyone else is terrified of him and she's just dying to go up and take his drink order,”

is_love · 10-16-2008, 02:24 AM

I found a quote.. if you want to use it.

Quote:

She falls for him and it's the first relationship she's ever been in and for the first time ever she can just relax," Paquin has said of her character. "But it's dangerous because he's a vampire and there's a lot of controversy surrounding that particular issue in their society.

another one.

Quote:

She instantly connects with him in a way that she's never been able to with anyone else.

You can take what you want from it and use it. Both quotes are by Anna.

**Guinevere** · 10-16-2008, 02:25 AM

I've added in the quotes.

Sanna - I agree, i think we all should write something about what makes B/S so special to us.

Cathy - Where are those quotes from?
