True Blood: Episode 8 Recap: Dead Meat


There are two episodes to go till the end of the season (August 18th). Rumor has it that a series regular will "bite the big one". Everyone above is still in play except for Terry (dead) and Hoyt (gone... somewhere). Who do you think it will be? My vote is on Eric. He will go down in a blaze of glory saving Pam and Willa. I really wish it was Bill instead that might be too much to hope for. 

Episode highlights:
  • Eric is still grieving the loss of his "sister" Nora. What was the levitating about in the scene with Bill? We already know he can do that. It seemed out of place. 
  • When we last saw Jason he was thrown into "genpop" with the women. I'm sure there's no place he's rather be (except that they're hungry vampires and fairies are like vampire crack). Have no fear. He's being protected by the toughest vamp on the block (Violet) who will use him for her own nefarious needs and then get all medieval on his ass. 
  • Also from last week, you'll recall that the True Blood is tainted so Pam, Tara, Jessica, Eric, and Willa know not to drink it. Jessica tells James since she's sweet on him. Then James tells Steve Newlin. Oh geeze James, can ya not guess that Steve is the biggest tattletale on the planet?  
  • Wolfies and shape shifters. Alcide has a smackdown with Rikki and leaves the pack. He then takes Nicole and her mother to Merlots. Sam sniffs Nicole and finds out she's pregnant. Say what?
  • Sookie agrees to be Warlow's vampire fairy bride if he will give Bill his blood (in order to help the other vampires). 
  • Sookie tells Sam she could lose her fairy powers and they could be together. Again, say what? That scene seemed really out of place. She's been blowing Sam off (and not in a good way) for like seven seasons. Kick that girl to the curb Sam! Besides you've got a baby something on the way. 
  • Bill's vision is coming true. Sarah is rounding up any vampires not drinking True Blood and putting them in the sun room. So far Pam, Tara, Jessica, Violet, Steve and James are in there. I don't remember seeing Willa. Where did she go? 
  • Eric forcibly takes some of Adalene Brailyn Charlaine Danica's blood. That fairy girl cannot catch a break. She needs to hide in the house and never come out. 
  • And the award for most creative use of a murder implement goes to... Mrs Sarah Newlin for stabbing that poor Asian lady to death with her own stiletto heel. And that, dear readers is why you should always wear sensible shoes. Not only will they help you outrun would-be murders, but they also wont hurt nearly as much when you're beaten with them. 
Grade: 4 Monsters (out of 5). I really enjoyed this episode. More of the same please (but with lots more action).
