Plot hole: In the episode where Jessica went home to her family's house in season 2, Bill said "someone who lives here must invite me in." In this episode, Russell Edgington's wolf (Coota) invites Russell into Alcide's apartment. Also, in Season 6 Sarah Newlin recinds Jessica's invitation into Jason's house (which only Jason should be able to do).

New World In My View - S2-E11

Character mistake: When Bill mentions to Sophie-Anne that drinking the maenad's blood poisoned him, she says that vampires can only feed off human blood. However, across the show, we've seen vampires drink from fairies, werewolves and even the blood of other vampires, like Lilith's blood. (00:05:50)

New World In My View - S2-E11

Continuity mistake: When Jason is impersonating the God Who Comes, the position of the blue rope tying Sam to the roof of the car, keeps changing position between shots. For example, when Mike Spencer says, "You're the God Who Comes?", the rope is under Sam's chest; in other shots, it's behind his neck. (00:33:30)

Beautifully Broken - S3-E2

Continuity mistake: When Bill dines with Russell and Talbot, Talbot takes a sip of carbonated blood and puts his glass down on the table, on his right, next to another glass.

Beautifully Broken - S3-E2

Continuity mistake: When Jason is talking to Andy at the Merlottes', he sticks his fork backwards into his sandwich. A couple of shots later, the fork has mysteriously disappeared, and there's not even a hole or mark in the sandwich. The fork reappears a few shots later. (00:36:10)

More quotes from True Blood

The First Taste - S1-E2

Trivia: In this episode, when Sam is talking to Sookie in his office asking if she can hear his thoughts, he tells her she always has a job working at Merlotte's. Once Sookie leaves the office, the camera pans to a painting on the wall of a dog protecting the little girl. It is kind of a foreshadowing that Sam is a shapeshifter (he shifts into a dog) who is always looking out for Sookie and she is not even aware of his supernatural ability.
