True Blood

Show generally

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).

Mine - S1-E3

Revealing mistake: When Sookie finds Dawn dead, in the close-up of Dawn's body, you can see the actress' pulse at the base of her neck. (00:50:55)

Kylantha

Scratches - S2-E4

Revealing mistake: When Lafayette unlocks the door to let Tara into his house, you can see that he barely touches the lock, and is merely pretending to turn an already unlocked deadbolt. (00:17:55)

Kylantha

At Last - S6-E4

Continuity mistake: When Andy's half-fairy daughters attempt to buy alcohol at the convenience store, they place a pack of beer on the counter. In the next shot, a pack of cigarettes, on top of the beer, appears out of nowhere. (00:13:20)

Kylantha

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)

Kylantha

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)

Kylantha

I Don't Wanna Know - S1-E10

Continuity mistake: During the trial, when a vampire suffers the punishment of having his fangs wrenched out with pliers, the amount and position of the blood on his face changes repeatedly between shots. (00:23:35)

Kylantha

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)

Kylantha

Life Matters - S6-E9

Plot hole: When Sarah Newlin opens the roof to let The Sun into the white room we see all the vampires feeding on Bill, so they can survive The Sun. But why is that even necessary when Bill obviously entered the white room, and they could also just get out of the room?

Scratches - S2-E4

Continuity mistake: When Jason is in his bunk house at the Light of Day institute at the beginning of the episode, as he takes off his tie one of the buttons of his shirt is undone. A couple of shots later, his shirt magically buttons itself back up. (00:01:45)

Kylantha

New World In My View - S2-E11

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Tara is handcuffed to the table by Lafayette and she is asking her mother to let her go, her strap of her vest top keeps moving up and down her arm.

She's Not There - S4-E1

Audio problem: When Jessica is talking to Pam at the ladies' room at Fangtasia, as Pam says, "You have no reason to feel guilty", her head is seen from behind, but the words don't match the motion of her jaw. (00:45:25)

Kylantha

Burning House of Love - S1-E7

Continuity mistake: After Sookie discovers that the rednecks are plotting to kill the vampires, as she attempts to get Sam to intervene, Sam places two mugs of beer on the counter. The mugs keep alternating between being full and half full between shots. (00:39:00)

Kylantha

Authority Always Wins - S5-E2

Continuity mistake: When Jason is confronted by the son of Sharon Singer at the sheriff's office, his arms keep changing position; most notably, when the kid attacks him, Jason's right arm goes from being over the kid's arm to being pinned between shots. (00:25:30)

Kylantha

Eric: Godric could have been king of Texas had he wanted. He could have been king of any vampire territory anywhere. He is twice as old as I am and very powerful. There are none above him in the new world.
Bill: Well if he's so powerful, how could they abduct him?
Eric: Now that is what worries me. If one such as he can be taken by humans, then none of us are safe.

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.
