Recap-Review-Rant True Blood Season 4 Episode 4 – I’m Alive and on Fire

“You can’t have anymore, there isn’t anymore. You drank the whole faerie, and you’re going to your room.” I have to give the best quote of episode 4 to Sookie. Eric gets completely drunk draining Claudine and this is her answer when he says he wants some more. Her tone and inflection in the delivery were perfect and I was laughing out loud. Eric takes off into the woods after giving Sookie a few playful swats on the bottom just as the sun comes up and Sookie calls on Alcide to help find him. I’ll daydream about that later. When they do find him he’s swimming and Sookie is able to pull off another one when he invites her to join him. “There’s big gators in there you crazy viking.” The look on Alcide’s face is priceless. I especially loved her berating the two of them like they were little boys and she’s the mommy, ‘Alcide stop making that noise and Eric put up those fangs and do what I say,’ it was hilarious. All in all the Eric and Sookie with a side helping of Alcide scenes were great entertainment this episode but did little to move the storyline forward other than showing Eric’s sudden vulnerabilities and emotions, especially his emotions for Sookie. We also get a great scene of Alcide and Sookie alone arguing about Eric staying there. Finally the two of them proclaim they are on each other’s side and in it together, topping it off with a hug. Aaawwww, okay okay, lets move on.

Recap-Review-Rant True Blood Season 4 Episode 3 – If You Love Me, Why Am I Dyin?

Finally Alcide!!  Okay I got that out of my system.  His first appearance was a little marred due to the reappearance of a certain were-bitch that came along with him, but I’ll get to that later.  All together this was a pretty great episode.  As usual there were a few things I could have done without, but on the whole I was pleased.  It looks like Bill and Jason are the only guys getting any this season.  One of those I just don’t understand and the other I feel sorry for.  Hope he gets a better storyline next season, if he lives . . . you never know in Bon Temps.

Recap-Review-Rant True Blood Season 4 Episode 2 – You Smell Like Dinner

Okay I’m going to try this a little bit differently this time.  I don’t think the scene by scene recap is really the way to go, there are plenty of those out there already and it makes this kind of long and a lot more time consuming and with work and my other commitments I just don’t have that much time.  This is a work in progress so it’s liable to change a few times until I find a happy medium.  So without further ado let’s jump right in to episode two.

Overall this was a much better episode than the first one but, bleh, what a way to start out.  Ewwww, seriously with the licking the open wound on Jason’s forehead.  This really grossed me out, I know that doesn’t really make a whole lot of sense when you’re talking about a vampire show where you watch people drinking blood all the time, but I never promised to be consistent or sensible.  I really hate this storyline and I seriously wish they would do something different with Jason.  I don’t know if they’re following the books on this one but I just can’t stand it.

She’s Not There – Season Premier

Hi, this is something new I’m going to be trying.  I’ll be doing a weekly recap of each episode of True Blood this season.  A couple of things you should know . . . First, this is a recap, it is meant to be read AFTER you watch the episode so it will definitely have spoilers in it.  Second, I have never read the Sookie Stackhouse books by Charlaine Harris, so I won’t be referencing them.  Now . . . let’s jump right in shall we.
