Welcome to Say Wha?!
My blog is devoted to ME. Yes Moi! Things I approve/disapprove of in my shopping, traveling, dining, shooting pics, or just walking down the streets of my hood (NYC beybey!). Enjoy!
I'm not even going to speculate on the new season. HBO seems to use the Sookie Stackhouse novels as a reference point only, frustrating super fans like myself. However, I wonder if the title song suggests the introduction of Amelia Broadway. But does that also mean we are getting away from the whole fairy thing? I'm so confused, but excited for the new season to start.
Sonsofbitches!
How do you have multiple cliffhangers on one show?
Bill tries to kill Eric by burying him in cement along with Russell. Somehow Pam manages to rescue Eric. Eric makes it in time to spill the beans on Bill's original plans for Sookie.
Bill then invites the Queen to his home for a final showdown. Who wins?
Sam goes after his brother, Tommy, who stole the contents of Merlotte's safe. Did he shoot him dead?
Jason tips off Hotshot about the Feds and ends up getting arrested.
After telling his mother where she can stick it, and moving in with Jessica, they show Hoyt's mother buying a shotgun at a Fellowship of the Dead approved gun store!
Lafayette is still tripping off of V. Jesus reveals that he's a bruja!
Alcide is conveniently back in the picture after Sookie tells both Bill and Eric to beat it. Ummhmmm.
Check out the teaser trailer to Season Finale which will air this Sunday on HBO. I refuse to watch it as I don't want to be tipped off to the storyline. But here you go...
Aaaaaah! Last night's episode was so good that I ended up cursing at my television when it ended so abruptly. The conclusion of the episode also reminded me that there is only one more episode left! Season Finale is scheduled for September 12th.
A drunken Sam bursts into the bar showing his true colors, cursing everyone out and offending his best friends. He also kicked out his brother Tommy, which looks like is going to turn out to be a big mistake, as they show Tommy cracking open Merlotte's safe and setting up some sort of electronic device.
Last one standing after Sam's tirade was Tara. After a short discussions about how much they have in common, they finished the conversation in Sam's trailer...bow chicka bow wow.
Side note: Tara sure has been getting in it this season. Kudos!
Lafayette and Jesus start coming down from their V trip, but Lafayette is having some bad flashbacks (i.e. seeing Jesus has a demon). I wonder what that means? I knew something was fishy about Jesus, but guessing we won't find out until next season with only one episode left.
Hoyt and Jessica go at it, vamp style.
Arlene gets assistance from Holly, the wiccan waitress, to get rid of Rene's baby, but the abortion doesn't take.
Eric is running a con on Russell, playing on his desires to become a day walker by drinking Sookie's fae blood. Bill joins in on the con, but for some reason stupid Sookie doesn't get it and again thinks that she can't trust Bill. Show ends with a big showdown at Fangtasia...DUN DUN DUN!
Snoozer storyline: Jason deciding to stick with Crystal to save her from a life of inbreeding. He also finds out that the high school star quarterback is hopped up on V, but there is nothing he can do about it.
Last night was an improvement over the previous episode and seemed to be a night of revelations.
- After an awkward kiss with Tara, Jason reveals that he is the one that killed Eggs. She is mortified but has no real response toward Jason except to run away.
- Crystal reveals her true panther form to Jason. Too soon I think.
- Bill tells Sookie of his romp in Fairy World and of her true nature. Does this mean that Claude and Claudine will not have a big role on the show?
- Lafayette and Jesus trip on V together and get a glimpse at their supernatural histories. Turns out they are both descendants of witch doctors/and healers. However, we find out that Jesus' grandfather practiced the dark arts and supposedly had some plans in store for him. Not sure where they are going with this.
- We finally got a look into Sam's past. Turns out he was a thief and a murderer. Ok, now let's move on.
- Arlene admits to Terry that Rene is the father of her baby.
- Hoyt professes his love for Jessica. Get's mortally wounded by Tommy in pitbull form, ends up sucking on some of Jessica's blood, strengthening their bond.
Revelation we could have done without...
- It seems that without Talbot, Russell is a psychopath.
This somehow doesn't work for me. Especially the scene with him sleeping with the dead male prostitute. Next week should be really good as Eric has chained Sookie up in his dungeon. We don't know if it's for his benefit or her own good. DUN DUN DUN!
Hmmm? Seriously, you are kind of losing me here True Blood. ***spoilers***
WTF moments...
- Franklin comes back, no explanation how, only to be blasted away by Jason Stackhouse moments later.
- Bill gets transported into fairy world somehow, explanation still up in the damn air.
- King Russell killing a newscaster on air and basically declaring war on the human race.
- Really? You're bringing Hadley's son into the mix already.
- Calvin Norris as a bad guy
Highlights:
-Sam flipping out on Calvin Norris
-Jason blowing Franklin to bits
-Lafayette and Jesus
With only a few episodes left in the season, I feel like they are jumping the shark a little bit. Everything just feels a little rushed. Like they are trying to throw so much story in but not giving any explanations. Time to step your game up HBO and fast!
Did anyone else find it extremely sexy when buck nekid Eric was seducing Talbot, then turns his ass over and stabs him in the back? Just me? Anybody? Ooookay, alrighty then...
Jessica skills get nasty after Bill finally teaches her a thing or two. Starting to like her alot, eventhough her character is mad random.
Lafayette and Jesus back on...que caliente!
Alfre Woodard. Lafayette's crazy momma knows whats really up in Bon Temps.
Sookie and Bill going at it on the floor after they just murdered a bunch of werewolves. Thank you HBO!
CONS:
Boo @ Sookie letting Debbie Pelt get away.
Tommy Mickens character, still a bit on the annoying side.
Umm, how is Arlene's baby supposedly Rene's? Now that doesn't make any kind of sense.
You were a tad bit random. The killing of Lorena and the rescue of Bill Compton was the only part of the episode that was consistent with the series. However, I had still some issues with it. As hardcore as they made Lorena out to be, I can't see her accepting getting murdered by the hands of Sookie so easily. Especially because of how much Lorena despised Sookie.
The relationship between Sookie and Alcide seems to have been cut to a minimum. Are we supposed to believe that Alcide would risk his life to rescue Sookie, all because his father owes a debt to Eric? There is something missing or does HBO just assume we've all read the books? Which I have, but I'm sayin tho!
Sam's family and the dog fight scenes, so random and unnecessary.
Claudine was introduced way too early in the story to the point where it makes no sense whatsoever. That whole dream sequence was cheesy.
This episode left me unsure of the rest of the season. Please step your game up by next Sunday.
At first glance, it doesn't appear that they are selling the series at Barnes and Noble or Borders. That throws a monkey wrench into my plans of running out to pick it up on my lunch hour. They definitely carry it at HBO.com and Amazon.com for around $5 a pop. I will be ordering mine today!
Gee thanks! Add one more series to the list for me to get addicted to. Due out in stores on July 21st, the True Bloodgraphic novel is set to follow the HBO series and not the books by Charlaine Harris. Either way, I will be coming out of my pockets and lining up at Borders on July 21st! See you there.
Dead and Gone (Sookie Stackhouse Novel #9) comes out in paperback on April 6th! For those of you not in the know, the HBO series True Blood is based on the Sookie Stackhouse novels by Charlaine Harris. However, surprisingly enough, the books have more violence, blood, and sex than HBO!! They are very quick reads, and you can often find the series on sale at Target for less than $6 each. I have almost missed my subway stop on many occasions reading these juicy stories. So I say, EFF TWILIGHT with their brooding, sexless vampires!! Start reading the Sookie Stackhouse today and catch up before the cable starts back up for Season 3 on June 13th (just be forewarned that HBO takes a few liberties with their story lines)!
