Episode 212: Beyond Here Lies Nothin

I did not expect that Maryann was going to use Sookie as her maid of honor, but I guess she wanted someone special (i.e. not human). Bill’s plan worked really well. It was intense, but it went off without a hitch. Sam ended up saving the day and the town. I thought it might take more than that to put end to Maryann, but she seemed pretty dead. Supernatural beings have a way of popping back up, though and Tara said she felt like it wasn’t really over. Jason and Andy weren’t very effective, but I’m not surprised, Jason was the leader. At least they pitched in at the end to help bring people home.

We have a partial answer to why Eric is having Lafayette push V and that’s the Queen. We still don’t know why she wants V to be sold and she feels that Bill Compton knowing about the V is a threat.

Bill’s evening with Sookie was very romantic. It was well planned from the beautiful dress he bought her to the proposal. I thought he was going to propose when he reached in his pocket, but then he pulled out a plane ticket. I was a bit thrown, but then he pulled out the ring like I thought he was going to do. I didn’t expect Sookie’s reaction, but I could understand it. Will Sookie think that Bill just left her or will she suspect that something else happened? Eric is the most logical person to be behind Bill’s disappearance. He told the queen that he would take care of Bill and with Bill being gone he will have a big opening into Sookie’s life.

Okay, what about Jessica? It seems like Hoyt was the only thing that let her hold on to her humanity, but what will happen when she sees the flowers he left her? It was so sweet that he came by to apologize. It was nice to see him really stand up to his mother and decide to take control of his life, but it seems like it might be too late for them.

Eggs was a very tragic character. He was the most used by Maryann and I don’t think he would have come to terms with the things he had done under her control. I was shocked to see Eggs not only get killed, but shot by Jason. Oh my god, what was he thinking?! Tara is not going to let Eggs’ death go. It seems like Tara can’t catch a break when it comes to love.

I think that Sam looking for his birth parents is going to be trouble next season. What kind of creatures gives birth to shape shifters? It will be interesting to learn more about them.

Overall, this season was very exciting and we got to know all the characters better, especially Eric and he’s going to have an even bigger role in season three as the love triangle strengthens. Can’t wait to find out what the new big bad “thing” is going to be and hopefully we’ve left the orgies behind for good!

So what did you guys think of the finale?

Thanks so much for following the blog. It’s been a lot of fun. We’ll keep posting things as we anxiously wait for season three to begin!

True Blood Season 2 Episode 12: Beyond Here Lies Nothin

Episode 211: Frenzy

Okay, so this week’s episode wasn’t so great either. I was really hoping that we would start getting into the thick of things and see some serious stuff go down, but it seemed like more filler until the finale. Maybe the writers are really just trying to set up season 3. Only a few things of interest really happened. We got to meet the queen, who was cool and we found out a way to defeat Maryann.

It looks like Lafayette is having dreams about Eric too, which is something we’ve been wondering about.

Saving Tara was pointless. I’m really glad they went through all the trouble last week just so she could throw herself right back into harms way.

Sookie’s home felt like it was turned into a haunted house. Will she ever be able to get the creepiness out of the house once this is all over?

Will Bill’s threat keep Eric in check? I have my doubts, but why is Eric having humans sell V anyway? What’s he getting out of it? Can it really just be profit?

The writers better bring it during the finale or we’re going to be VERY disappointed.

True Blood Season 2 Episode 11 Promo: Frenzy

Episode 210: New World in My View

Eric and Sookie together was a great opening and I loved the kiss that they shared. It showed just how much Sookie wants to comfort him. Sadly, it was just another wild dream. I can’t help feeling that there’s more to her dreams then her new desire for Eric. Maybe she can feel his emotions and they are subconsciously influencing her dreams.

Looks like Bon Temps got hit by Hurricane Maryann. And Sookie’s house has been turned into enemy headquarters. If there was any question about who attacked Sookie in the woods we now know for sure it was Maryann. Bill attacking and drinking her blood was not only useless but harmful. Looks like Bill will have to get some outside advice from the Queen on this one. How can she refuse to help him when he looks so hot in his leather jacket? From what we saw the Queen’s house totally rocked. And what’s up with Sookie’s new power? That was unexpected and cool. It looks like Sookie may have a bigger part to play in bringing down Maryann. Even Maryann doesn’t know what she is.

Jason has found his calling as a chainsaw toting, nail gun slinging mercenary. And when he was impersonating the god, I couldn’t stop laughing! The whole performance by him, Andy and Sam was so ridiculous and brilliant all at the same time. But hey, whatever works to get the possessed mob off your back.

I was so glad to see that they were able to save Tara but now of course she wants to help Eggs. Maybe that’s what Maryann was expecting when she said that she’d come back and bring the others.

Will Hoyt be able to stop Jessica from killing mommy dearest? And will he forgive her if she does? I honestly can’t blame her. That woman is hard to take even when she’s not possessed by an evil demon.

That episode was just too short, no really it was only 45 minutes. What the heck!
