Humans:Jason Stackhouse has become an upstanding member of the Bon Temps police force, cooling Andy Bellefleur‘s temper and trying to steer him away from a V addiction. Tara Thornton fled Bon Temps and reinvented herself as Toni from Atlanta, a steely cage fighter in New Orleans who is dating her competitor, Naomi (a timely reveal for another gay romance, given Friday’s passage of marriage equality in New York). Arlene Fowler and Terry Bellefleur got married, and Arlene gave birth to her devil child, a precious baby boy with a penchant for beheading barbie dolls (likely a sign of what’s to come, knowing this crowd). … [Read more...] about ‘True Blood’ Recap: Let’s Do the Time Warp

‘True Blood’ Recap: Time for a Shift
But we still learn the answer to Sookie’s question in the episode’s flashbacks. London, 1982: Bill is a punk (or Sid Vicious reincarnated?) out to feed on a bartender. After he opts not to drain his victim, but glamour him instead, the American Vampire League’s Nan Flannigan — who has been tracking Bill and is intrigued by his decision — emerges from the shadows. “They might be dinner, but they don’t deserve to die,” he tells her. She tells him it’s the dawn of the True Blood era, and Louis Pasteur is a vampire seeking to synthesize human blood! Oh, and she wants him to be a vampire spy. Fast-foward to his battle with Sophie-Anne Leclerq, and we find out that it was Nan pulling the strings on the showdown, which ended with snipers shooting wooden bullets into Sophie-Anne and Nan appointing Bill vampire king of Louisiana. Bill refuses to share what makes Sookie so special, and Nan threatens Sophie Anne’s fate if he’s … [Read more...] about ‘True Blood’ Recap: Time for a Shift
‘True Blood’ Recap: Eric Has Amnesia
HumansAndy Bellefleur continues to fight his V addiction and calls Jason’s cell phone, treating his police partner as an AA sponsor. Despite his V high leading to some overconfident accusations of Sam, Andy realizes it’s been 48 hours since anyone has heard from Jason, even if no one else has made the connection. Meanwhile, Andy’s sister, Portia, proposes to Bill that they take their friendly business relationship to the sex level — and King Bill agrees to take the human as his lover, but warns her he’ll never actually love her. It’s interesting to note that all of Bill’s post-Sookie conquests have been the physical opposite of his telepath love. And Tara, back in Bon Temps for less than a day, finds herself unwillingly mixed up in the vampire/witch drama. Arlene’s demon baby doesn’t decapitate anything, but Jessica gave the baby her possibly demonic baby doll, which she and Hoyt tried getting rid of twice, to no success. … [Read more...] about ‘True Blood’ Recap: Eric Has Amnesia
