We're almost there!

This made me laugh...a bit disturbing lots of blood so beWere

Spoiler:

and lets not forget the Magister...

oh i loved this episode, felt like filler but i cant wait now.

Glad to see claudine

Not my favorite, maybe it's because they didn't have as many one-liners!! Well, Jason had a few, but I agree, filler episode. Interesting tid about her blood, wonder how that will play out. Thought that Claudine's home was too "fluffy!"! I didn't want to say fairy, but surely that is where they are going.

It wasn't my favorite episode either.
I thought that weres would have excellent hearing, I am surprised that Alcide couldn't hear Sookie's muffled screams.

I don't know how I feel about how they showed Claudine and that whole fae world. It seemed a little awkward to me. When I saw it I had a flashback to Maryann and the orgy scenes.

Denis O'Hare was awesome as Russell. I was disappointed we didn't see Franklin again, I am wondering if he is really dead.

I really liked how Sam saved Tommy, I hope he can keep him away from those crazy Mickens.

I agree with this being a bit of a filler episode, but overall I'm far from disappointed. The one thing thats still buggin me is Claudine and the fae scene. I'm just not feeling it at all so far, and for me its been the biggest let down of the season.

I think of this as the transition epi...the action now changes.


So...now to break it down.

Sam and Tommy- So glad to see Sam save Tommy. It was a real relief and it gave Tommy a chance to see that Sam is sincere...he went to a dog fighting camp to save him....We shall see what we shall see.

Jason- Meh...except for seeing him by Sookie's bedside, I could have done without the whole Hoyt and the biscuit lady scene....

Tara and Alcide- Well, I was glad to see them come in at the last minute and save the day and the end of Cooter. I would have shot Debbies bony narrow ass while I was at it....Men.....

Tara and Sookie- Boy she is really getting into that "Think to Sookie" thing...But I think when she saw Lorena's gooey remains all over the floor and all over Bill, she has to be wondering "Did I kill Franklin?"

Sookie- Sookie was great and I stealed myself for how the scene with Bill when he feed off her would play out. Of course, tossing Bill into the daytime (Another clue Tara, you should watch your back at night....) was reactionary...She should have let Bill heal her when he realized what he had done.

Eric and Hadley and Sophie Anne- Taking advantage of the fact that Russell would be in his daytime sleep, he went to get a little information about our Sook...or did he? Think he was bluffing?

Eric and Pam- That was cool seeing Eric lean over Pam and ask her if she was alright and petting her reassuringly...hopefully we will hear more about that.

Sookie and Claudine- Never in my life of watching this show have I wanted to shake the hell out of Sookie. I would have had Claudine by the shoulders shaking her to find out what the hell I am...instead of dancing around like she didn't have a single brain cell...wasted opportunity methinks. Still, it was good to meet her.

Bill and Sookie- Sigh....they are traveling a rough road. I don't think Sookie was screaming at Bill, but screaming her way out of the NDE she had. But I am sure she is shaken by the experience and this breaks Bill's heart. He felt guilty for feeding off her, and he never wanted to do her harm.

Eric and Pam and the Magister and Sophie Anne- I am glad Pam got out of her predicament and I laughed when she clapped and congratulated Russell and Sophie Anne, but I would have loved to hear more about the Authority...Hopefully we will learn a bit more.

And I loved the memorial Vidi of Bill and Lorena...

Waiting for next Sunday
