[oo2] true bitch


True Blood is without a doubt the bonafide most buzzed about show of the summer, so it only makes sense that both the show and its bitchy, bratty, and frequently bare-all females (not to mention A-Skars) are on the mind. The irony is that out of all the women on the show (and there are many to fawn over; from tempting teenager Jessica to the frighteningly religious Sarah Newlin) the inarguable HBIC is the one with the least screen time.

Seriously, whenever Pam gets a scene let alone a line of dialogue it is a cause for celebration, because you can be guaranteed that whatever sardonic wit-icisms come out of her mouth are sure to leave you hanging high and dry.

One of the most memorable Pam scenes in season two thus far is when Eric sends her and vampire compadre Chow to find any trace of the mysterious beast that slashed Sookie earlier that night. This is much to Pam's displeasure as she stresses the fragile nature of her newest pumps to Eric's deaf ears. When Pam returns, shoes effectively ruined, despite Eric's admittance that "those were nice pumps," it does nothing to quell the uber-bitch-face she throws his way.


Let's also not forget the time she fixed Eric's hair. All while workin' a velour tracksuit better than any of those desperate housewives of New Jersey would ever dream to. Might we also add, she did a damn fine job on that haircut.


Another moment evidential of her queen bitchiness is in season one when Pam pays Bill a little visit in the graveyard while he undergoes the process of turning Jessica into a vampire. Perched proudly on the grass, Pam ignores Bill's emo-vampire self-loathing (oh the pains of granting eternal virilty!) and instead offers him a satisfied "thank you" in response to his earnest quip regarding her lack of humanity. She also kicks Jessica's dead body into a hole in the ground.

Finally, the scene that sent shivers down the spine and made us bow down in awe; after Bill kills Longshadow and Sookie is sprayed with the vampire's blood, the girls find themselves in the Fangtasia's bathroom on cleap-up duty. After Sookie ignores Pam's advice and offer of a fresh change of clothes, the vamptress dully drops,

"There's vampire in your cleavage."

Pam doesn't skip a beat before sliding in with a smooth, "allow me," and physically picking up Longshadow's last remains with her perfectly manicured nails before carelessly tossing the vampire bits aside. Bad. Ass.

  1. ily, Pam.
    Im in Australia, and It's only halfway through Season 2, but Pam is, by far, my favourite female on the show.

    Best. Bitch-Face. Ever.
