Then last week (yesterday's) episode when he was about to face the sun, he said (paraphrasing) "at my age it [the sun] won't take long [to kill him]." Any ideas? Are vampires immortal or do they just have an extended life cycle (2000+ years)?
I'd assume that the idea is that they become more and more "supernatural" as they get older; they don't need as much mundane nourishment in the form of blood, they become more powerful, but also are more vulnerable to the sun as their physical form is almost completely subsumed.

Sam is my favorite character so I keep hoping he'll get more screen time; I'd like to see him defeat Marianne on his own but I have a feeling Sookie and Bill will return before the end of the season and help destroy her.

-edit- I think Lafayette needs more screen too, his scenes are almost always either hilarious or kick-ass.
