True Blood Episode 403: If you Love Me, Why Am I Dyin'

The residents of Hot Shot have become truly scary and Crystal just as creepy as the rest of them. She seems so different from last season when she wanted to get away from Felton and the craziness, but I guess the twelve months of using V and being under Felton's thumb have taken its toll.

Demonic Doll vs. Demonic Baby...that doll creeped us out from the first time we saw it at the end of last season and now the baby and the doll have found each other. Oh no.

So far the only thing that scares us about Marnie is the desperation with which she wants this spirit to use her. Marnie herself is not all that powerful and doesn't even know what she's doing. The question is when is this spirit going to take her over completely.

Tara, Lafayette, and Jesus...those three are just making things worse. There is no way that their plan is going to go right.

How did you all like Portia's business proposition to Bill? You can't really fault her for going after exactly what she wants, but she definitely thinks she'll make Bill fall in love with her regardless of his warning. We have a feeling that in the long run it will strain their business “friendship” as she put it.

We were glad to see Bill and Jessica still have some sort of a relationship. Eric seems to be a much better maker. His relationship with Pam is much closer. With Bill being the king of Louisiana, you'd think that would impact Jessica in some way. One advantage...being able to get Advil when all the stores are closed.

So happy to see Alcide...less excited to see he's back with Debbie. How long will she stay on the wagon?

Sookie was acting like a stupid chick in a B rate horror flick. Who stops after driving away 20 feet to see if the vampire is still behind them? We did like that she punch him in the face though. Eric is really endearing when he has amnesia. His old world charm is coming through. Sookie is going to be in serious danger...danger in falling for him, that is.

Best line of the night...”You just killed my fairy godmother!” You don't hear that every day.

Did everyone catch that Sookie was reading a Charlaine Harris book?

I love Eric all. All vulnerable and Naive. Sookie should really take advantage of that. Don't like Bill this Season. Could probably do without him altogether. What's up with the doll/baby story line? It's just weird and doesn't quite seem to fit. I'm not sure about this season, it just seems very slow and isn't really holding my interest yet. I hope it gets better. By the way, just because I know all of you will appreciate this and I can't find anyone else that does, Crystal is from where I live and a friend got an autographed picture for me. Yep, an Autograph from the Werepanther. I was excited.

This season is turning into a big disappointment. The writing is bad and the cheese-ball that started with the first episode(jumping 12 months ahead because of the 'fairy' world? c'mon!)keeps growing bigger and bigger with each new one. I could read Anna's thoughts as she delivered that last line,"You killed my fairy-godmother", and it was "What has happened to the writers this year? B-movie cheese. We keep going in this direction we're all gonna find our asses on the CW next year." 'Over the top' doesn't always turn out good on the other side.

Yep, another limp-legged episode of TB season 4. There are way to many storylines for us to care for anyone of them. We should have cared for the 'amnesic Eric' plotline but thanks to Sookie's poorly scripted actions we're just annoyed by her loose-mouthed approach to concealing Eric (like didn't she ASK for money to do that?!? I'd ask for my money back if I were Pam and I found out Sookie went to Alcide to re-locate Eric - where did that come from?!) I accepted long time ago that the TB series was an entirely different thing from the books BUT the TV Sookie is not half the woman that the book Sookie is. Sorry but the season 4 TV Sookie is one dirty-mouthed, impertinent, unreliable, graceless white-trash blondie. She just got worse and worse...We can literally see no reason for her to be the object of anyone's attractions other than her fairy smell. Such a pity...Charlaine, how could you let them demean in such a tragic way our brave, our no-nonsense, our honorable SOOKIE? Tv TB has become just a slick looking white-trash soap-opera...

I am personally loving this season. We are seeing a different side of the characters and with Eric's memory loss, I am curious to see how everyone will have to adjust. I have not read the books so I have no expectation to base it on which may be a good thing. Can't wait to watch the next episode.

SO disappointed... The book was so much better. The buildup took forever and then everything happened way to fast. So hoping for the shower scene. We should have gotten to enjoy Eric and Sookie better. What a let down. Also, they don't even show Eric and Sookie in the preview for next week. Whatever...
