Rants About Tonights Episode of True Blood Spellbound

OK I just have to get on here and say my thoughts about tonight's episode!!! There are so many things to discuss about this one I really don't even know where to begin so I apologize in advance if I happen to jump around a bit in my ranting...lol

First thing first, WTF??!! I mean seriously?! Ok, now I had figured that Jason was going to succeed in saving Jessica from meeting the sun, but him actually acting with his little head yet again and kissing Jessica back I feel is going to end up having a certain amount of consequences down the line here in this season as does pretty much everything Jason ends up doing...lol. And Poor Hoyt, I do feel bad for him with the whole getting his heart broken by Jessica but did he really have to act like a spoiled large tree in the flannel shirt type of brat? (sorry I still love that line from Pam...hehe) She never intentionally meant to hurt him and in her own way she still and will always love Hoyt but I feel that Pam was right in the fact that Jessica is a different person now in the fact that she is a vampire and although she was trying to hold on tight to the person she used to be when she was human, her vampire instinct is starting to kick in and her trying to live a monogamous life with Hoyt or anyone for that matter, would actually do more harm then good to the both of them! Also why exactly did he freak out like that? He has been saying to Jason that he knew Jessica was most likely going to break things off and that he felt as though she was slipping away from him so why was he so surprised by the news when she finally did? He just flew off the handle and said some major things that was way uncalled for that he will never be able to take back! If I was Jessica, I would have done exactly what she did in her dream when she slammed his head into the counter..lol

Now the fourth book (I am sure I have mentioned before) is my all time favorite book out of the entire series. Just so you know I have read this particular book so many times that I do not need a bookmark to hold my place unless I have to close it, the binding is so warn out and the cover looks as though the book should be older then it actually is...lol Now we all new from Alan Ball that there was to be a sort of version of the unbelievably infamous shower scene between Sookie and Eric, and he has said that it was not going to be exactly like the book but he did however promise that we as fans shouldn't be disappointed and would be happy with the scene. Ok I can except that BUT I feel incredibly jipped here and boy was he sorely mistaken about that and thanks for nothing with that promise there Mr. Ball!!!!!!!

Hell we had a better shower scene between Bill and Sookie in the episode "Everything Is Broken" from season 3!! There wasn't even the tiniest bit of a shower scene between them!!!!!!!! At first for a split second I started to jump up and down in my seat getting all excited yelling "this is it! this is it! we're finally going to get to see it!!!" But to my dismay they were not even in the shower for a total of 30 seconds before what should have been the best scene of the entire existence of True Blood ended up becoming a disaster by entering a dream like state of Sookie and Eric both high off of each others blood! I felt it was more or less closer to the scene in "Fourth Man In The Fire" from season 1 when Amy and Jason kidnap Eddie and drank some of his blood and the started hallucinating. Watching that scene, I just wanted to walk up to the both of them whack them in the head with a frying pan and say this is your brain on drugs! Exactly what were the writer's and/or Alan Ball on when they came up with this scene that has destroyed my fantasy??!!


I know I am not the only one who feels this was either, already there are a few youtube post with people expressing their complaints about this scene and I have a funny feeling Alan Ball is going to catch some hell for this one!! Perhaps he needs to take a breather and some time off to get his head back in gear!

On a happier note, I was very happy to see that Alan had at least kept the part which showed Eric and Sookie starting their blood bond that is an important fact throughout the rest of the books!


It is a shame what all is happening with Tommy, I do think that Sam should have felt a little compassion and stopped to listen to Tommy on the whole situation with him turning into Sam. I mean how exactly could the poor boy know that was even a possibility? True Tommy really shouldn't have slept with his brother's girlfriend but hey he is a guy...lol However I can not condone that he did intentionally this time pretending to be Maxine, although that part was quite hilarious...lol In my opinion, Sam is in need for some actual anger management classes. And Tommy really needs to find someone to care for him and care enough about him to steer him into the right direction and help him to realize the difference between right and wrong!

Two of the best lines of this episode:
Andy - "Jesus Tits and God America Jason!" (why do I feel another t-shirt on the horizon just like when Andy told Jason, Conscious off; Dick on; And Everything is going to be alright...lmao)
Jason - "Uh sorry man I stopped listening about half way through."


On the subject of Tara, she is really pissing me off! I totally get the fact that she is having a hard time on all what Franklin Mott did to her last season but the choices she is making are unbelievable. How on earth could she willingly justify killing anyone, vampire or not?! And it is not all vampires that harmed her, Franklin was a sadistic certifiable nut job (in which was beautifully portrayed by James Frain) that should have been on a tighter leash had it not been that he worked for a King that was even more unstable then he was...lol I actually agreed with Pam with the fact that she said "this is so fucking lame" when Bill stopped her from killing Tara! I so wished he would have let Pam kill her off! I mean she didn't even look the slightest bit ashamed or sorry that she stood directly opposite of her all time best friend Sookie!


Debbie Pelt - I have said before, Alcide you can do way better then her! Last season Debbie had red hair, now this season she has blond hair. Does anyone else feel the same as I do that Debbie most likely dyed her hair blond in an attempt to look like Sookie?! I am sure you all have heard the saying "You can always take the girl out of the trailer park, but you can't take the trailer park out of the girl". Well boy does that saying pertain to her! Not to mention that she is a needy little bitch! Alcide, how can you not see how she is milking this whole sobriety BS already? Not to mention she is extremely self conscious and jealous of Sookie, that she had to have been the one to tell Marcus that the witches and vampires were going to war with each other in her feeble attempt to try to keep Alcide away from Sookie and keep him tamed in her clutches. I think it is safe to say that she is the one obsessed with Sookie way more the Alcide is....

A great moment was when Lafayette walked into the kitchen at Merlotte's after taking what seemed to be a cigarette break and walked in seeing the apparition of what I call "the Cajun lady" and said "Oh Hell..... F*** this shit" and walks right back on out of the kitchen lmao

Ok now we have found out where this creepy doll came from and sort of what the story behind that is as well as the Cajun lady and the fact that they are connected but my questions are, who was the white man who killed this poor lady's, not to mention his own child? Why is this spirit attached to Arlene's baby? Was the man the spirit had a child out of wedlock a Bellefleur?

What exactly was Marnie doing to Eric and why was she petting his head like a dog? I do have to say though Fiona Shaw was correct in the fact that her character Marnie was going to be hated more and more throughout the season...lol these people who are rallying with Marnie/Antonia are dumb as rocks, they are the sheep and she is going to lead these people into the slaughter and they are dumb enough not to even see that. Tonight was only the beginning of what is going to be a complete and utter cluster F*** of a fight...lol

I hated the fact that the preview for next weeks episode was even more of a yank in the chain! Every week I yell "Come on" with how they leave the episode and the fact that I have to wait yet again an entire week to see what happens. Before you say anything, I am fully aware that is the whole point...lol However that does not mean I have to like it...ahahaha But this weeks preview for the following week was just as bad if not worse then the torture that Alan Ball creates for us each week in the fact that after such an episode like this, he not only sticks the knife in our side by holding off till right before the end of the episode to start the Witch Vs Vampire war that is pretty much the main story line besides Eric and Sookie finally getting together, but then he just twists the knife already in our side by only showing a tad bit of what is to happen with Sookie with her being yet again at a near death state and Bill and Alcide trying to figure out how to save her since she is not taking Bill's blood when we all know that there is no way she will die. I just can not take this anymore!!!

S4 EP4 I'm Alive And On Fire

Now that Claudine is no more thanks to Eric, it seems that Eric wants more. Starting to go for Sookie, she yells at him telling him he will kill her. Eric tells her he would never harm her and immediately retracts his fangs. She tells him they need to go back into the house Eric collapses, when he recovers a few seconds later he appears to be drunk from the faerie blood and starts pinching Sookie’s butt then while laughing tells her to “catch him” and takes off into the woods with vampire speed. Knowing that dawn is approaching Sookie then tries to find him.

At Fangtasia, King Bill confronts Pam about where Eric is and he suspects that she knows where her maker might be. She tells him that she has no idea where he is, and makes a crack about Bill’s power going to his head. Back at Bill’s place, he gets berated by AVL’s Nan Flanagan for sending Eric after the witches during this time of trying to win back the public. Bill tries to express how serious of a threat that these particular witches are reminding her of the Spanish Massacre but Nan does not believe that something from 400 years ago would happen again.

The next morning Alcide arrives at Sookie’s to help her track down Eric before the faerie blood wears off and he becomes a crispy critter. He shifts into a wolf to track his sent and they take off into the woods to look for him while Sookie tries to explain what all has been happening. The come upon a swamp where Eric is swimming and calling out the sea monsters. Soon he starts to burn telling Sookie he doesn’t feel so good all of the sudden, Sookie then wraps a blanket around him and tells him to run vamp speed back to the house. After she comforts him a bit she emerges out of the cubby to talk to Alcide who relays his concerns for her having Eric in her house. She returns her concerns about Debbie living with him as well and that he shouldn’t judge, they huge and make up saying that they are still friends.

Over at the Moon Goddess Emporium Marnie has a vision of the Spanish Inquisition where she sees a women being burned alive for witchcraft who is the same woman she channeled who erased Eric’s memories. Unable to save the women from being burned, Marnie starts to mimic her chant and then wakes up startled. Jesus, Lafayette, and Tara arrive telling her that she needs to reverse the curse she placed on Eric before they end up dead by the hands of Pam. They search frantically trying to find a way to reverse the spell and as they are about to give up a book containing the spell they were looking for happens to fall on the floor.

In the Inbreeded hillbilly town of Hot Shot poor Jason is continuously raped by the women there. After they are finished the young girl Becky is told it is her turn to do the same but Jason convinces her that this is not the way to have her first experience with a man and she then agrees to let him go. Later her Uncle- daddy Felton finds out what happened and shifts into a panther and goes to find Jason. Jason climbs up into a tree and carves a spear from a piece of wood. Felton arrives in his panther form under the tree, Jason then jumps from the tree killing him with the spear. Crystal arrives and is happy that Felton is dead, and tries to talk to Jason and make him realize that now they can be together and that she loves him. Jason tells her he doesn’t want anything to do with her and heads for home.

On his way Jason passes out from his injuries in the middle of a road where Jessica and Hoyt find him while driving and Jessica heals Jason by giving him her blood.

Portia invites Bill over to meet her and Andy Bellefleur’s grandmother and their home. As he charms the grandmother they begin to discuss the long line of Bellefleurs in their family. They both stop when she comes to Elizabeth Harris, The grandmother excuses herself and Bill tells Portia that they can no longer see each other. Portia demands that Bill explains what is going on and he reveals to her that Elizabeth Harris was his daughter and that she is his great-great-great- granddaughter.

Back at Sookie’s, she attempts to cheer up Eric. Eric is in a depressed state due to the fact he will never be able to walk in the sun again. While talking to him, she starts to feel for this version of Eric telling him that she always knew that this part of him existed and that she does like this side of him. Eric then tells her that if she kisses him he would promise to be happy, almost doing so Eric stops sensing that someone was at her front door. Sookie tells Eric to stay there and answers the door only to see that it is Bill. Bill explains to Sookie that he needs to search her house to see if Eric is there. Sookie refuses and tells him that there is no need for a search because Eric is not there and she has never lied to him so he has no reason not to trust her. Bill tells her that it is his duty and starts to enter the home moving her aside then stops. Remembering the feeling he has for her and what they once shared he believes her and apologizes for doubting her then leaves.

Tommy goes to find his mother when she contacted him telling him that she left his father and he is thrilled about the news. He tells her that he can read now and all the things he has learned making his mother proud of him. The happy reunion is cut short however when his father Joe Lee comes from behind him wrapping a chain around his neck like a leash. He realizes that his mother lied to him to get him back to continue prize fighting as a dog so they can make money.

Back in Bon Temps, Pam is in the woods joined by Tara, Lafayette, Jesus and Marnie. With her patience growing increasingly thin, Pam threatens Marnie to reverse the spell she casted on Eric. After a few lame attempts, Pam rushes towards her but is quickly stopped. Marnie is suddenly taken over by the spirit and a chant casting a spell on Pam. Pam’s flesh starts to rot and fall off her face and she takes off vamp speed into the darkness.

Denis O'Hare Teases Russell's Return

Former True Blood star Denis O'Hare has teased that a return to the HBO show is definitely still on the cards.

O'Hare portrayed the vampire king of Mississippi Russell Edgington during the show's third season, and has reminded fans that Russell is still alive, despite having been buried in cement during the season finale.

"I think Alan Ball was asked recently about Russell's return and he said, 'Russell's not dead'," O'Hare teased during the recent TCA press tour, according to The Hollywood Reporter. "And I can't do better than that so I'll just reiterate what he said."

"It's a great character and I feel he hasn't been able to completely express his dreams yet, " O'Hare explained. "I think more than any of the other vampires that season he had ambition and huge dreams.

"I"m still attracted to that, and I think he need to fulfill whatever it is he's aiming for and go out in a blaze of glory in whatever it is he needs to do."

The actor recently claimed that he expects to return as Russell at the start of the fifth season next year.

Last month, O'Hare married his longterm boyfriend Hugo Redwood at a ceremony in New York City.

Deborah Ann Woll Interview With Vulture

At the tender age of 17, True Blood's quasi-innocent vampire Jessica Hamby has studied up on carnal knowledge, killed a horny trucker, and attacked her boyfriend's mom. But this works out just fine for Deborah Ann Woll, the actress who plays her, who gets to live out all her unfulfilled adolescent angst. Vulture phoned Woll for more details on her character's season-four exploits, then got to the bottom of other pressing matters, such as her favorite flavor of blood and her policy on biting folks for a photo op.

Part of being a vampire is being loyal to your maker. How would you defend your character's maker, Bill Compton, who's become a jerky politician?
He's under incredible pressure. And he has some incredibly powerful people making decisions for him. I think Bill is as disappointed with that as we are. Bill is really alone now. He doesn't have a family except Jess, and I think it's really wonderful that this season they get to [bond] quite a bit. Because things aren't going so great with [her human boyfriend] Hoyt, [Bill] is all that she has.

So … Jason Stackhouse and Jessica? Didn't see that one coming.
I'm actually really excited about that story line. The thing is, Hoyt is such a great guy, but the really sad part of it is that his mom was right: She told Jess all those years ago that Jess can't give him what he wants. While Hoyt is more open-minded than his mother, Hoyt really wants conventional things. He wants a wife and a normal life. And that's not something Jess is capable of, nor does she want it.

When she was human, she would've been the perfect mate for him.
You're absolutely right. The only future she had to look forward to when she was a human was being a housewife. But she's excited that she finally escaped that. It's really saddening for her to find out a year later that she's right back where she started. And she did this because she loves him. She had a little two-week rebellion, then immediately was with Hoyt.

Were you rebellious as a teenager growing up in Brooklyn?
No, I was not. This character is fun because it's a very safe place to act out. I was a very shy, very quiet little girl. I was bullied a lot and really didn't feel attractive. Being so pale and so blonde, I just disappeared, so I started dying my hair red when I was about 14. And I rebelled against my peers. I never once experimented with a drug. I was a theater geek. I had piano lessons, theater rehearsals, dance.

Deborah Ann Woll Loving The Triangle Love Story She Is Playing

Deborah Ann Woll has revealed that she is enjoying Jessica's storyline with Hoyt and Jason on True Blood.

Jessica and Hoyt (Jim Parrack) have been having problems in their relationship since the beginning of the season.

Meanwhile, Jessica has bonded with Jason (Ryan Kwanten) after feeding him her blood to save his life.

Woll told New York Magazine: "I'm actually really excited about that storyline. The thing is, Hoyt is such a great guy, but the really sad part of it is that his mom was right - she told Jess all those years ago that Jess can't give him what he wants.

"While Hoyt is more open-minded than his mother, Hoyt really wants conventional things. He wants a wife and a normal life. And that's not something Jess is capable of, nor does she want it."

Woll explained that Jessica wants to exploit the opportunity to rebel now that she is a vampire, saying: "The only future she had to look forward to when she was a human was being a housewife. But she's excited that she finally escaped that.

"It's really saddening for her to find out a year later that she's right back where she started. And she did this because she loves him. She had a little two-week rebellion, then immediately was with Hoyt."

TV Line Spoilers For Vampire Daries

Question: I could use some Vampire Diaries scoop. —Jake
Ausiello: Jeremy won’t be the only one affected by Vicki’s “return” from the dead. “Matt is struggling with the lingering [supernatural] element in his dead sister, who’s popping up to Jeremy,” says exec producer Julie Plec. “We’ll get to see Matt struggle with, ‘My dead sister is paying visits to my ex-girlfriend’s brother, who used to sleep with my dead sister.’” Meh. Been there, done that.

Stefan Meets The Dark Side

The Vampire Diaries' executive producers Julie Plec and Kevin Williamson have promised that "the Stefan-Klaus roadshow" will be a big part of season three.

In the second season finale, Stefan (Paul Wesley) agreed to leave Mystic Falls with Klaus (Joseph Morgan) so that Damon's life could be saved.

Morgan has now explained that fans will begin to find out Klaus's motives.

"What we're going to get to see is how dark Stefan can go," he told TV Line. "The interesting thing is that Klaus has given Stefan permission to release that darker side of himself. We're going to see... what Klaus's ultimate goal is with Stefan and for Stefan."

Plec promised that the storyline will be explored "hopefully for a good amount of time" and teased that the emergence of Stefan's dark side will have a big effect on the other characters.

"He'll probably make his way back to Mystic Falls," she said. "Suddenly, it'll be an interesting dynamic for Damon, who was the mysterious, evil dude who showed up in season one, leaving Stefan to clean up his messes. Now, it's going to be a little bit of the reverse."

She added: "You're going to see a very, very, very definitively different version of [Stefan and Elena's] relationship. Not just [in] one episode, but over a good part of the season."

Meanwhile, Williamson claimed that Wesley is "really good" at portraying a different side of Stefan.

"He also has a swagger and a fun to the role that doesn't exist as Stefan because he's so the good boy," he said. "He's so intense. He's so broody. No-one really gets to see the playful side of Paul Wesley... As dark and as devilish and as nasty as [the new Stefan] is, it makes him more fun."

Plec has previously revealed that Stefan will go down "a very dark road" in the new season, while Morgan has confirmed that Klaus has a "plan".

The Vampire Diaries returns with its third season on September 15 on The CW.

Anna Paquin Deserves Her Privacy Just Like Everyone Else!!!

ANNA Paquin realized how popular her hit show True Blood had become when she started to be asked for autographs in more and more bizarre places.

Anna — who plays waitress Sookie Stackhouse in the raunchy show — says she gets freaked out when fans go to great lengths just to get a picture — especially when it means following her to the bathroom.

“I find it weird when people are offended when I won’t take pictures with them in a bathroom,” she says.

“I find being followed in to the bathroom is a little odd. And it is even odder when someone gets upset when you are like ‘But we are in a bathroom, this is a private place!”

Collider Interviews True Blood's Happily Married Couple Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer

Six episodes into Season 4 of True Blood, things are definitely heating up in the small, sexy town of Bon Temps, where vampires, werewolves, witches and all things supernatural are becoming more commonplace than the humans. Although everyone with the show is always very tight-lipped, when it comes to plot reveals, during the HBO portion of the TCA Press Tour, co-stars and real-life husband and wife, Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer, talked about Sookie’s stubborn streak, how they enjoys the tension in the relationship between Bill and Sookie because it makes for interesting television, the ability to pitch possible storylines, how the cast is always trying to get tidbits about the story and their characters out of the writers, and how incredibly talented the entire cast is. Check out what they had to say after the jump.


Question: Anna, why do you think Sookie has such a stubborn nature, when it comes to friends and family trying to warn her?

ANNA PAQUIN: Well, I think stubborn people get themselves in a lot of trouble, but they also get things done. I think she’s a pretty good person to have in your corner. She’s willing to put herself out there. Plus, if Sookie wasn’t so stubborn, our show would be a hell of a lot less exciting because there would be a lot less danger for her to be rescued from. But, what’s interesting about her, at the beginning of this season, is that she has made the decision to be on her own and to tell both the gentlemen callers to get lost. In a way, that almost makes her more open to interesting things happening because she’s operating from the position of not being as needy.

Stephen, when did you find out that Bill was going to be the new king of Louisiana, and what did you think of that?

STEPHEN MOYER: The way that Alan has the show set up is that, whoever has written an episode is the producer of that episode, and they sit on set the entire time. But, we’ve got six writers, so that means they’re going to be on for two episodes. And, every single one of us hits those writers up for information, without any of the others knowing that we’re doing it, and then we all pool that information and try to find out what’s going on. I shouldn’t have said that out loud. That’s exactly what we do.

PAQUIN: Alan knows we do that.

MOYER: So, I did find out that that was the idea that was being pitched. towards the end of Season 3. I feel really lucky because I’ve gotten to play a really interesting arc, just as an actor, from the first season. In the first season, he was this enigmatic voyeur, watching everything. In Season 2, he was worried that he was going to lose Sookie, and he held on really tight. Then, he realized that he can’t hold on. He has to push her away, in order to save her, and he’s quite nasty in the way he does it. Then this season, what I’ve gotten to play is that I’ve got to let her go. If you love somebody, you have to set them free. So, whilst doing all of that, I get to be the king. He’s having to make very powerful choices whilst letting go of the thing that he loves. It’s been a really interesting dynamic for me to play. Bill gets to perhaps become somebody that Sookie can respect again because of the choices that he makes as king.

Anna, do you think it’s fair that Sookie has so many horrible things to deal with?

PAQUIN: I’m having the best time of my life. Are you kidding me? And, I’m not just a little thing, thank you very much. I can hold my own. I dare Alan Ball to come up with something I’ll say no to.

Do you get invested and start rooting for Sookie to end up with one character over the other, or do you just go with it?

PAQUIN: I feel like it would be weird to decide what I want to happen to her ‘cause it probably won’t ever match up with what I envisage, and then I’d be disappointed. We’re just all going with the flow.

What’s more important for a guy to have, good oral hygiene like a vampire, or good grooming like a werewolf?

PAQUIN: Do you think the werewolves have good grooming? Did you see the boys at Lou Pines? Blech! More importantly, if you’d been there, you could have smelled the boys at Lou Pines. Alcide is a unique and rare werewolf, in that he seems to play close attention to his grooming. The others were more like cool biker dudes that don’t know about deodorant.

What’s it been like to go from Sookie and Bill having this undying love for each other, but now they have this tense relationship?

PAQUIN: Just speaking for me, our love in real life is fine, so I’m totally happy for our characters to be as sad, distraught, messed up and hating each other as they like. We don’t really have everything be perfect for too long, or happy for too long. It’s not interesting television, if everything works out for Bill and Sookie, and then they adopt five babies and live happily ever after.

MOYER: I actually pitched to Alan that I was getting a bit bored with our life and asked if he add somebody else to the mix.

PAQUIN: Thanks, babe. But, no, we want the show to be as dynamic and interesting as possible.
