First Word

The supporting characters in books and film matter just as much as the stars. These characters, if they're really good, steal the show or "chew scenery". I thought it would be fun to review my favorite supporting players and start with the girls since I almost always start with the guys. So, here we go: Pam and her "maker" Eric. Pam, True Blood and the Sookie Stackhouse Series -- who doesn't just love snarky and sensitive Pam. Sensitive you ask? Yes, when she cries over the potential demise of her maker Eric Northman, you see all of the love come out. She's a good girlfriend, too. She helps baby vamp Jessica in True Blood by providing her with "girl" talk and advice on how one disposes of a body. Her endless snarky comments make her fun and funny. Of course, I've more than admired her great lines. Who could ever forget: "Sookie and her stupid name and precious fairy vagina. I'm so over Sookie!" Anything Pam says is sure ...

An authentic Skarsbrow! I wanted to find a picture of Kristin Bauer Van Straten aka as Pam on True Blood doing the infamous Skarsbrow, because I have fantasies in which I will my one eyebrow to arch solo when someone does something ridiculous or questionable. Like the other night, I so wished I could Skarsbrow when my networking buddies were grabbing each other's "girls". Yes, the moment of ass- and boob-grabbing antics was a well-deserved Skarsbrow situation. Unfortunately, I don't have the required eyebrow dexterity to pull it off. Anyway, in my search for a photo of Pam doing it (she's a woman after all), I found this hilarious link in the Urban Dictionary . Unbeknown to me, Mr. Alexander Skarsgård is so famous for the ability to lift a single brow, he got an official term for it in the dictionary. Go Skarsgård. When you're impacting the slang, you know you've made it to the big time LOL.
