Can Vampires Go Blind?

After seeing the way Eric got down on that dancer from Fangtasia, I began to wonder about something. You think he does other things that fast? With Bill back in Sookie's life and Alcide walking around with no shirt on all the time, Eric I feel has been demoted to third string yet again. He better stock up on some more tissues. Guys palms are going to be hairier than Cooter on a full moon.

Very excited for this weeks episode. I'm sure it will kick off with the Sookie/Cooter fight aftermath. Maybe Alcide and Bill will throw down with Russel while she escapes. Or it's possible our Viking prince Eric, comes flying in and sends Russel crashing through the wall.

Really would like to see Eric get medieval on some wolves or Russel.

Me Grimlock no bozo! Me KING!

The Painting Was a Gift Todd!

"She wants to be with me"- Franklin
"Hence the restraints."- Talbot

Franklin has become Tara's own version of Kathy Bates in Misery. But also reminded me of Todd from Wedding Crashers. "Let's play tummy sticks." Franklin shows his fangs when Lafayette texts Tara "Bitch where are you?" Franklin tries to wow Tara when he tells her to "watch how fast I can text Mothafucka." I know our own "Laffabrown" thinks he is pretty fast on the bberry, but even he has to tip a cap to Franklin's skills here I would think.
Tara unimpressed David Blaine's out of her restraints only to be tracked down by Cooter. So the wolves are indeed the day time watchers for the vampires.
Tara resorts to conversation as a last resort to reason with Franklin.
Tarah to Franklin- "we need to talk."
Franklin- "don't say that, women say that and everything goes black and I
wake up surrounded by body parts."
He wants to make her his vampire bride and offers to take her to a Shoney's in Vicksburg for her last meal as a human. I checked it out and yup there is a Shoney's Big Boy in Vicksburg MS at 3316 Pemberton Square Blvd.









Love seemed to be in the air this week. We see Terry moving into Arlene's celebrating his move into normality. He has found someone to argue and grow old and fat with. "It's normal and it's happening to me." She's a little crazy but so is Terry as Sam notes, so it works.

Lafayette and Jesus make a love connection. Was funny to see Laffa blush I gotta say.

Jason meanwhile is chompin at the bit to get out in the field. He can't be chained to no desk, he needs him a "cold case" or something. Loved that. He sees the girl from the night of the drug bust and the Dukes of Hazard music kicks in as the car chase ensues. Jason half naked in a squad car Ala Charlie Tweeter from Varsity Blues pulls over Crystal. Not sure what her deal is. All this "there is only today, there is no future for us," has me confused. Lot's of ideas in my head but I'll wait to see what you all have to say.


Jessica is really coming into her own. She's not afraid to use her vampire skills to her advantage like when she glamors the customers so they wouldn't tip Arlene. Tommy sees it and makes his move by putting down Hoyt.
"That's an overgrown 6th grader right there, he's little league...you're
a smokin hot vampire, the majors...Yeah and hell yeah too!"

I have to agree with Tommy on this one. Jessica has looked amazing lately now that she finally got out of the house. Too bad Tommy is owned head to tail by his creepy father. Can their dysfunctional tale be more complex then it looks on the surface?

Glad to see the Packmaster is skinning out of town because he delivered the worst line of the week when he said "Alcide OBEY!" Might as well tell him to roll over and play dead too. WEAK.

Bills file is brought to question before Cooter comes in. Russel summons
the guard for Bill and all of a sudden it's Bill not Lorena who put himself in a
corner. Cooter comes to give Bill some "sexy good news" about Sookie and we see the old Bill snap out of his act and snarl "WHERE IS SOOKIE!?"


Talbot takes Eric on the grand tour and amidst the 16th century Japanese Vampire Erotica he comes across a familiar object. We see Eric as a Viking playboy more concerned with the busty redhead who feeds the goats than his duties as a king's son. But after Russel's wolves slaughter his family he promises his dying father Vengeance. This marks the beginning of Eric's quest to find the man responsible. The one who commands the wolves. The path which lead him to work for the SS as we saw in previous flashbacks.


Good episode for sure. Setting up a lot of good story lines I think for the future. We can only wait and see what happens. Hopefully they don't forget about Pam. I really don't want to see the magistrate stake her. Loved seeing Sookie zap Cooter with her telepathic blast. Russel seemed thrilled as well which can't be a good thing.

I know you all are going mad...

waiting to get your comments in, but the recap will be posted tomorrow as usual so just wait one more day to do so. In the meantime though, I did come across a picture of Hoyt's tee shirt that I had commented on previously. It's so amazing in it's simplicity.


Be sure to stop by tomorrow and discuss the blood with the rest of us. I'll try my best to deliver a good one to appease your thirsts and avoid any blood shed in the streets.

Ring Ring Hooka Ring Ring

Tara can't come to the phone right now Lafayette, she's being held captive by a cheeky deranged vampire, please leave a message and she'll get back to you as soon as humanly possible.
Franklin asks about Sookie's telepathic powers but we learn that Franklin's employer is not only interested in Sookie but even more so has questions about Bill Compton in particularly. He glamors Sookie so hard I wondered if she can even remember who Eggs was. When he was talking for her I was sufficiently creeped out but impressed at the same time.
Did anyone else thing Sookie was gonna pull off a Jedi Mind Trick and make her cell phone fly into her hand like Luke Skywalker?

Perhaps he was trying to learn about Bill's days working at a procurer for Sofie Anne. Russel was certainly interested. Bill wants Lorena gone after he fulfills his duties. When he is assured by Russel he spills about Eric selling V at the Queens behest.
Bill will have to put up with Lorena a bit longer so maybe we'll see him hit her with another uppercut like Mike Tyson taking out Little Mac in Punch Out.


I was waiting for the blood tears to come out here but got denied.
Sookie unfortunately can't see Bill's hate for Lorena as she fields the break up call from him. "I am DEATH." Lorena and I, you know'd, like only two vampires could. Bill's cold delivery was clearly an attempt to hide his real feelings and had him coming off like Eric when he tries to hide his feelings for Sookie when he is around her.

Eric puts up a good front, but goes all R.Kelly "I Believe I Can Fly" in his day dream of Sookie. Sookie tells him she had "got skills u can't even dream of cowboy." I have a feeling that pertains to the bedroom as well as her telepathic prowess.

Eric has some competition though with this Alcide character. Although still hung up on this Debbie, that dog definitely has a red rocket for Sookie. He runs hot for our girl.

THAT'S CALLED CLOSING THE DEAL

Jessica is recognized by a bible beater from her home town. I thought she was going to have another body to hide beneath the floor boards, but luckily for her there is that whole glamour trick. Kudos to Jessica for using her head instead of causing someone to lose theirs again.


Sookie goes biker chic thanks to Janice in order to blend in and do shots with werewolf Patrick Swayze. We find out that Russel is supplying V to the wolves which explains why he wants to unseat the queen and cut out the competition. looking like the love child of Eric and the Matrix's Morpheus. He drops a dime to the Magister on Eric and we see Pam tied up in the basement of Fangtasia. normally this would be a good thing, but she is being tortured in this case and blames Bill Compton for the V sales. Eric while telling Lafayette that he lacks artistry. "boss man look at this face it's nothing but art." Eric rolls down the window and flies away when Pam contacts him and Laffa delivers a gem of a line, "Oh hell how am I supposed to deal with this fucked-up-ness?"

Jason meanwhile is just trying to get his crew a round after a long day. Arlene flustered as usual snaps back "long day? it's lunch!" Jason sizes up the new QB1 Kitch Meynard and tells him how it is. "Right now you got the world at your feet, people serving u beer under age, girls sucking your cock whenever u say go, no offense Tammy...ten years from now years from now there's gonna be another version of you, but ten years younger, then who you gonna be?"
Jason finally found someone he can confuse more than himself. We also may have founf his soul mate in the blonde he saw in the woods that night who we learn lives with the guys Laffa tries to sell the V too. Loved when she offers to go get the Dirt Devil obliviously.

Sam's family are dead beats. Bill glamors a peeler for a late night snack, Sookie doesn't have a nut sack, the only way to get ahead in this town is to drink like a fish, hallucinate and fondle farm animals and kill a black person...promotion!

Life is a hell we'll never get out of alive but this show certainly helps.

HUNGRY LIKE THE WOLF

Like a werewolf after V, I am mad with hunger for a new episode of TB this week. Especially interested to see if we are introduced to Alcide's overly protective sister Janice. Herself a werewolf, Janice will be played by Dawn Olivieri of "Heroes" notoriety. Apparently she is a "tough-as-nails" biker with a propensity towards psychics and horoscopes. The moons are aligned for a Sookie/Sister smackdown I have a feeling as our Bon Temps belle gets closer to her furry friend. Enjoy the episode. Recap will be out per usual on Tuesday.

Declaration of Dependence

With no new episode this week because of the July 4th holiday, I have officially made my "Declaration of Dependence" to the "Blood." I have a werewolves thirst for a new episode. Much like Jessica has been perplexed wondering where her trucker's body wandered off to, I myself have still been trying to figure out why Bill is keeping files on Sookie. I went back and got the images from when Franklin was going through the drawers in Bill's house and found the hidden file. Sadly I am still as lost as before. This waiting around for another episode blows. If anyone has any bright opinions to what it all means please feel free to share. Seeing how the papers he has on her go back to her childhood perhaps this gift of Sookie's grows stronger the older she gets. First she could read minds and then she is hitting Maryanne last season with the Ryu "Hadouken!"
