YOU ALWAYS HURT THE ONES YOU LOVE



Seems to be an ongoing theme in this show among others. We flash back to 1868 with Bill and see his son dead in his casket having succumb to small pox. Bill's wife gets hysterical when she sees him crying blood. Lorena tried to tell him the only way to avoid hurting the ones you love is to cut them out of your life. That or twist their head around backwards so you don't have to look at them while showing them just how much you "love" them. I guess Bill has never heard of a paper bag.

So Bill can't kill Lorena it looks like as we saw her recover from the burns he inflicted at the end of last week's episode. Sadly the tapestry which was a gift from Count "Dapper Duey" back in 1387 was not as fortunate.

The tapestry wasn't the only furnishing victim as Eric kills the werewolf in Sookie's house and gets her rug "all wet." Speaking of which, I wonder if Sookie got turned on by watching Eric deal with that long haired intruder. My take on that scene was that Eric took the bullet so the werewolf would revert back to his human form to drink the spilled V giving Eric and Sookie the chance to get some information. Sookie hears "Jackson" just before Eric puts the dog down. Apparently vampire blood to werewolves is like Gummi Berry Juice to humans, and boosts their strength.

While Bill is busy in Jackson, Mississippi looking like Michael J. Fox at the school dance in Teen Wolf, Franklin is busy gathering intel on him back in Bon Temps. He gives Tara the slow hip treatment showing a softer side to "Fang Banging," as opposed to Eric's Black n Decker technique.


This Franklin seems like a bad dude but he does help out Jessica by giving her "some head." Decapitated kind that is. In another scene Pam takes a break from giving head of her own to counsel Jessica as well. "Fangtasia this better be good." Another great scene for Pam who has just been stellar this season so far.


How about the weird scene where Sam walks in on his brother and dad sitting on the couch. The dad in his tighty whiteys had his hand on the son's knee. That family belongs on Dysfunctional Family Feud.

Jason enlightens us that there are TWO kinds of people "on" this world... "People who got no dreams, people who got dreams and do nothin about them and people who go out and fulfil their dreams. I don't know about you but Me I'm the third one!"

He may not pass the written test, but he should be great in the field. After all, he is apparently a "Ninja Level Marksman."

Lafayette reluctantly gets the keys to a new Bentley from Eric. Just make sure you don't drink and drive in that thing my man. To review, the legal B.A.C. limit in the state of Louisiana is "when you're drunk." Take the keys and drive Lafayette. whether it's a Beamer, Benz or Bentley, don't let the scheeming affect you.

We meet the new werewolf, Alcide, who Eric sends to watch over Sookie. Lou Pine's seems like a cool spot, but it's no Fangtasia. I'm interested to get a look at this ex girl friend of his who is engaged to the head wolf. Is that Cooter by the way? I liked how Alcide said he's not above a little violence, you just gotta shut the barn door behind yah. Seems to me like he is the werewolf version of Bill in a way.

Lot's to talk about, can't wait to be glamoured by all the comments.

I've Been Up All Day

Can't sleep in anticipation of Sunday's new episode? Me either. I've just been tossing and turning all day beneath the floor boards here. Figured I'd post one of my favorite scenes from last week for you all to enjoy. I'm so glad the writers have provided Jason with some more memorable lines so far this season. Feel free to add some of your favorite Jason Stackhouse gems in the comments section below. Should be a fun way to pass the time and take us into the weekend.

I officially "INVITE YOU IN"

I officially "Invite You In" to join, The Blood is Sacred, a site dedicated to show which has put the bite back into bloodshed. After discussing it with Sheriff Cam, we thought it would be a good idea to have a central place where we can all go and post our thoughts and comments after each episode. You can check it whenever you like so there is no danger in seeing an email discussing the latest episode before you have had a chance to watch. I will post an episode recap each week as I have below for this episode, with the hopes you will comment on the best show on television this side of Bon Temps. It's relatively easy to post comments below each post. You can also create a profile and join the blog as a "follower" which I recommend so you can get updates when new things are posted. This may be new to some of you like Vamping is to Jessica, so consider me your maker and feel free to email me any questions you might have with regard to posting comments etc. I can be reached at cfohara4@hotmail.com or you can always go through Cameron to get me. Lastly, I'd like to thank our sponsor for their generous support and look forward to the ensuing blood bath of comments.

She's a STACK...HOUSE



Sookie battles Nazi Werewolves from outer space? Big Foot is real and hiding out at the North Pole with Santa? Not exactly but we learn the werewolves were being leased to Uncle Adolf by their vampire Master as Eric ascertains in the flashback scene. The flashback also brought Godric back which was a treat especially since he provided this blog with it's name.

Jessica seeks out the advice of Pam on how to properly drain a victim and or dispose of the body if she goes too far. Pam hits us with her usual but fantastic dry and sarcastic delivery and apparently tells Jessica she needs to invoke Leatherface and chainsaw that body up.

Tommy Mickens isn't exactly thrilled like Arnold Schwarzenegger was in Twins when he finds out he has a brother. He makes it no secret that he is not a fan of Sam's, but when he goes all Steve Miller Band and "flies like and eagle" off the road leaving Sam to get got by that oncoming truck, he sort of puts on exclamation point on that sentiment.

Terry goes John Locke and help Sookie track the man/werewolf in the woods that was stalking her. Already armed with his "diploma from anger management" he decides to give Sooki a hand gun asking first if she knows how to use it. Sookie fires back "I ain't that blonde!"

Lafayette takes Tara to visit his mother and the very patient nurse "Jesus." Ruby yells to him as he is leaving the room, "wetback!" The Mexican Greg Focker just smiles and walks away. Classic. Lafayette tells Tara they need to look out for the darkness in their blood and he makes sure she's pickin up what he's puttin down... "Is u feelin me? (I'm feelin you) We clear? (Clear)"

Andy gives Jason a ride home as Jason excitedly notes, "I ain't ever ridden in the front seat before!" Loved when he grabbed the radio and tried to talk to head quarters. Jason tackles a meth dealer but I think we all wanted him to take down that mysterious chick running around in the woods. Loved when Andy tells Jason he's "prettier than most girls."

Bill dines with Russel and Talbot is Mississippi, but it very well might be mistaken for a summer house on Fire Island from the looks of things there. Lorena shows up in her riding gear and Bill sends her packing in a ball of flames. Earlier Bill thrashes some werewolves but sadly this was the biggest let down for me of the episode. I gotta think Bill compton can give Edward Cullen a run for his money in the vampire fight department. That was a big opportunity misses I feel.

Tara gets into it with some red necks and the new vamp in town Franklin. We can assume that it was him we saw earlier breaking into Bill's house. Creepy dude but I loved seeing Tara let out some of her aggression on those two hill billy's. THIS IS FOR EGGS!!!

Eric comes to protect Sookie and you could cut the sexual tension with a knife. Sookie can play hard to get with Eric all she wants but when he lays down the law she always seems to bend to his will. Nothing more about the shower scene dream with Bill and Sam, but things do seem to be pushing Eric and Sookie closer together.
