True Blood Season 6 Episode 1

True Blood Season 6 Episode 1 - Who are you, really?





Okay well it's back Trubies, another season of True Blood. Now as a lover of the books I was hoping that this season would bring Quinn, Sookie's Tiger shifter lover from the books but again I am disappointed. I know it's only the first episode but I have been reading some of the chatter on the net and nobody is mentioning Quinn, so I just want to get out my disappointment of how far they have gone off from the books.

Okay so now that is out of my system let's talk about the episode. Meh. I don't know what I was expecting but I wasn't blown away. I don't like this whole Bill being Lilith thing, I don't like that Eric seems like a wimp now, I want my strong, ruthless Eric back. I don't like his sister Nora, she's annoying and so is Tara, again. I thought it was funny when Andy's fairy babies went from being little babies to toddlers overnight, that was funny. I also don't like how angry and mouthy Jason is. Overall it was okay but I was expecting more, maybe, it could be because we've been waiting so long for it to come back and when you wait so long and the episode is meh it's upsetting  The nice thing is we can finally put a face to Warlow, and I love that it's Rutgar Hauer (aka Lothos) from Buffy the Vampire Slayer movie. One of my fav's.


Everybody makes it out of The Authority's headquarters, battered but alive, well sort of.


The building explodes with Bill inside but now since he's I don't know what he is able to walk away from it.


Bill calls Jessica back to their house and she, since he's her Maker, has to go because she can't disobey him Sookie joins her and they find Bill sitting there. Eric shows up with Nora and now Bill is faster and goes to stake Eric but Sookie protects Eric and stakes Bill in the back. We then find out that Bill can't be killed, as he pulls the stake through his body out his chest and heals. Jessica freak and they leave with Eric walking Sookie home then he gives her back her house, and to repay him she takes back her invitation into her house.


Jason, who walked away from The Authority's headquarters angrier than before and gets a ride from a nice man. He finds out that this gentleman is Warlow who is going to Bon Temps for Sookie.


Now I'm not 100% sure who this guy is and what his purpose is but I don't like it. At all!

Well until next week Trubies, it's been great.

Waiting Sucks - It sure does

Waiting Sucks - It sure does

Okay Trubies, it's that time of year again when our favourite Bon Temps vampires, fairies, werewolves and mere humans are back, this time it's Season 6. 
Wow I can't believe it's already Season 6, were has the time gone?


My hopes for this season: 
More Eric scenes
More Naked Eric scenes
Lots of Alcide scenes
More of Eric and Sookie together (except I heard a rumor there's a new love interest, boo)
Now speaking of that new love interest, I hope it's Quinn. For those who read the books Quinn is Sookie's hot Were tiger that she hooks up with for a little bit but because of how far they have gone off away from the books I just don't know what to expect from this season.


Yum!!!

Can't Wait

True Blood Season 5 Season Finale Save Yourself

Okay so I was just going over my blog and realized that I didn't post anything about the season finale of True Blood, shame on me. So here we go :)

True Blood Season 5 Episode 12 Save Yourself


So before even the opening credits Russell Edgington gets staked by Eric. :( This make me sad because I just loved Russell Edgington but at the same time I was glad that Eric swooped in to save the day. Even though I miss bad boy Eric I love this Eric too!!


So Eric, Nora, and Tara team up with Jason, Jessica and Sookie to go back into The Authorities headquarters to save Bill, Pam and Jessica. First I have no idea why Eric feels the need to save Bill but his need to save Pam is the reason they head in.
 
 Jason who was dealt a big blow to the head from Russell Edgington wakes up seeing his dead parents who are really against vampires. So heading into The Authories headquarters Jason is out to kill as many vampires as possible.

 
After freeing Pam and Jess and after Pam and Tara have their little moment together the gang got ready to find Sookie and Eric who are going after Bill.


Eric thinks that the only person to get through to Bill is Sookie but he's so far gone. He even convinced Salome that she was 'The Chosen One' and convinced her to drink all of the Lilith blood but Bill has ulterior motives by putting silver in different blood and by Salome drinking it she becomes weakened and Bill stakes her which leaves Bill the last standing Council member other than Eric and Nora.
 
Eric and Sookie find Bill and even after Sookie pleading Bill to stop Bill drinks Lilith's blood. This causes a strange reaction in Bill's body, he starts bleeding from every possible spot then suddenly his body bursts into a big blood pile. Thinking that Bill is dead Eric tries to comfort a sobbing Sookie but that doesn't last long. Bill slowly starts to rise out of the blood just like how Lilith has done. Bill lets out an inhuman scream then Eric screams "Run."

Aside from the vampire portion of True Blood the season finale showed Luna and Sam trying to save her daughter from Steve Newlin. The only way they could get her out would be Luna shifting into Steve Newlin, she does and tries to escape with her daughter but the red haired lady vamp makes Steve 'who is actually Luna' do a press conference on camera which doesn't go very good. Luna changes back into her form in front of the cameras that are live across the nation plus Sam 'as a fly' goes into the red haired lady vamp's body and shifts inside her turning her to jelly. Soon after that Luna collapses closing her eyes, possibly for good???
 
Next we have Andy's fairy woman Morella shows up very pregnant and goes into labour in Merlotte's while Holly, Layfayette and Arlene having a nightcap or two or three. Layfayette and Arlene with that drunken lady (crap can't remember her name) sit back drinking while Holly helps deliever Andy's half fay half human babies. After Morella gave birth (which actually sounded like she was having a orgasm) to her four baby girls. After the last one was born she jumps off the pool table, yes I said pool table and told Andy that those children are his sacred duty and they are all his then she left. Oh boy.
 
Overall it was a pretty good season. There were a lot of things going on like pregnant fairies, fairy clubs, Jason seeing his dead parents, Layfayette talking to dead people, Tara becoming a vampire, Bill going nuts, Eric becoming the responsible one, Russell Edgington dying not before taking over the authority, Terry's fire monster, and lots more so maybe they over filled it but I can't wait for next season. Already counting down the days.

Till next season Trubies

True Blood Season 5 Episode 9 Everybody Wants to Rule the World

True Blood Season 5 Episode 9
Everybody Wants to Rule the World


True Blood's new It couple, lol. I love Russell Edgington and I love Rev. Steve Newlin so them as a couple kind of makes sense, they are both psycho's.

In this boring and overall not a very good episode really didn't provide us any thoughts of what is going to happen with The Authority or lead us closer to Who is the vampire that killed Sookie's parents and anything else but it leads us to WTF moments.

The first being, why is Emma a wolf cub all the time? It doesn't really make sense to me and yes I know Russell kind of leads the werewolves but I still just don't get it, it really doesn't click with me.

Next I'm very happy that the writers have finally ended the whole smoke monster stupid story line with Terry shooting his old army boss in the head saving Arlene. I love Terry and I love Arlene, they are so cute together.

I love seeing Lafayette back to his Season 1 and 2 quirps and comments like this episode's"Dead folk, why y'all got to be so cryptic?" while he is listening to Sookie's Gran telling Sookie to look under the bed for clues about who Warlow is but all she finds is a box with things like Jason's report card and other little trinkets.


Now the WTF moment:
All the people with the Obama masks that were going around shooting shapeshifters were part of this bigger picture. And the weird thing is Ex-Sheriff Bud Dearborn was part of it. When Sookie went over asking him questions about her parents death Bud's stupid girlfriend of the moment smacks her over the head with a frying pan. Sookie wakes up in a barn tied up with Hoyt who is all drugged up because he let Jessica go. Bud and The Dragon (the leader of their clan, his stupid girlfriend) tells Sookie that they are cleansing the world getting rid of shifters, everything that isn't normal. Sheriff Andy and Jason come to rescue and they end up shooting and killing Bud which was sad but at the same time I said WTF.

Next we find out that because of everything that is going on with The Authority that they have now made this weird looking guy the new Sheriff of Area 5. Boo!!!!! Anybody else think he looks like a vampire want a be, not an actual vampire. I don't like him!!!

Overall not the greatest episode but what can I say?

True Blood Season 5 Episode 8

True Blood Season 5 Episode 8
Somebody I Used To Know!!!
Yes I know I'm a week late, sorry Trubies


Okay so in this episode Sookie and Jason and all their Fairy buddies head out to the scene of their parents accident that killed them to find out what really happened. Well Sookie taps into her parent's memories as they died but at the end after seeing the now deceased Claudine Sookie is sucked into the mind of the vampire that murdered her parents Warlow. Now I've read the books and have never seen or read anything about a Warlow. This season has veered so from the books that I have no idea what's going to happen next.


Next Jessica gets kidnapped by the people wearing Obama masks who are killing the sup's. They bind her with silver and bring Hoyt in to kill her. I thought for a moment that he was going to do it but he didn't. Maybe they will get back together at some point.


Holly and Arlene with the help of Layfayette tried to perform a fake seance to help Terry but since Layfayette is a medium the spirit told him that for the fires to stop Terry has to kill Patrick or the other way around. I can't wait for this silly story line to end.




So are you seeing two Sam's, well so did we. Can the real Sam please stand up? On your right is the real Sam and on your left is Luna, yes I said Luna who has skin walked before. And remember the last person to skin walk, Tommy, died from doing it.


Now I'm not a huge fan of Bill, but I don't like him going in the bad boy direction. Eric is supposed to be the bad boy not Bill. I don't know where they are going with this but I guess we will have to sit back and see.

After having a couple really good episodes, this one was okay. I don't know what else to say.
