Sookie Stackhouse:
[after chasing off the Rattrays] Oh, bless your heart. I am so sorry I didn't get here faster. You'll be okay in a minute, right?... Do you want me to leave?
Bill Compton:
No. They might come back and I can't fight yet.
Sookie Stackhouse:
[a dog begins to bark and runs up to Sookie, licking her face] Oh! Hey, there, dog.
Bill Compton:
He's checkin' on you.
Sookie Stackhouse:
That's just some old dog that hangs around the bar sometimes. He must live nearby.
Bill Compton:
[still staring at her] Oh, no doubt.
Sookie Stackhouse:
[goes to remove the plastic tubing on his arm, and he quickly pulls his arm away] I reckon you're not too happy about being rescued by a woman.
Bill Compton:
Thank you.

It is hard to judge an entire series by one episode, but there is strong hope for this series.
Oscar winner Anna Paquin (The Piano, X-Men, X2) as Sookie is excellent. She had powers that are not explained in the first show, but that is not what her special. She just has sweetness and honey dripping from her mouth and makes you want to immediately take her home to momma.
Brook Kerr ("Passions") really caught my eye. She is just so darn funny and really keeps things rocking.
Lois Smith (Five Easy Pieces) as Gran also seems to be a character that is going to make this show interesting.
There is a great mixture of humor, sex, and passion that should make for a great series.
