True Blood Season 3 ep 2
Jun. 22nd, 2010 02:52 pmSo I watched this last night, thanks to a wonderful person on my flist. Loved it.
Spoilers within, of course.
I don't think there was a single thing I didn't like about this episode. All the character interaction was great, with special mention for Lafayette and Tara, Hoyt and Jessica, Jason (aww, cute!) and Andy, and Terry and Arlene. There was some very funny stuff - Jessica and the chainsaw had me in stitches, her scene with Pam in the ladies' room was pretty good too - some poignant stuff - Sam's meeting with his real parents, Lafayette's mother in the asylum, the aforementioned Hoyt/Jessica scene - some downright disturbing stuff - Eric and Godric as Nazis (though I suspect it'll turn out they weren't 'real' Nazis, but just using the uniforms, or possibly even actual ranks in the German army, as a cover for dodgy vampire business), Bill biting the werewolf's ear off, the vampire king of Mississippi's 'blood' feast, Bill setting fire to Lorena etc.
I liked all the new characters (and I expected not to like Sam's brother and was pleasantly surprised), and was particularly intrigued by the Brit vampire (though since the actor's been allowed to keep his own accent, he'll undoubtedly turn out to be evil), and I loved the Eric/Sookie scene. Not really attached to any particular 'ship, as I've said, though I do like dear old Bill, so enjoyed that bit of interaction between them that showed the more 'human' vulnerable side of Eric. I was thinking Eric would pretend to go on helping Sookie look for Bill while all the time putting obstacles in her way, and am glad I've turned out to be wrong, because it's more interesting this way.
Favourite scene: so hard to pick - anything with Jessica in it, and Tara beating up the rednecks. Roll on episode 3.
