Wow... WOW!
You know how I keep saying that True Blood is horribly craptastic and atrocious yet entertaining and I can't stop watching it? MY TORTURE FINALLY PAID OFF! Tonight's episode was FANTASTIC, and all the naysayers who were interested in this show and then ditched it after the pilot, you all should watch this episode as soon as possible. Everything FINALLY came together into a wonderfully written plot and it was charmingly funny and kickass and it even made me cry a little. You guys! TRUE BLOOD IS OFFICIALLY A GOOD SHOW! At least for tonight it is, anyway. There weren't many super cheesy effects, and the ones that were there were done super cheesy on purpose, and everything that's been happening this season finally hit a beautiful climax and it pretty much left me breathless, waiting for more. You know what made this episode so great? It was ALL about the character development. They dropped the sex and craziness and just focused on why Bill is who he is, and it was glorious. And there was some beautiful Jason/Tara/Sam/Sookie awkwardness. Tara was slightly jealous, Sam was slightly jealous... oh yes, this show is so going in the right direction. But Bill. Oooooooh Bill. BILL! I hurt for him so hard. And I was jealous of Sam/Sookie on Bill's behalf. Everything that Bill did in this episode was for SOOKIE, even though she basically said that she didn't want anything more to do with him. He's just trying SO hard to be the man he used to be, and she loves it when his old self shines through, and she's turned on by his danger, AND OH GOD SOOKIE WHY THE HELL ARE YOU TRYING TO LIKE SAM? BILL IS FREAKING HOT! AND YOU WANT TO DO HIM! YOU WILL NEVER WANT TO DO SAM! ARRRRRRRRGH! Anyway, tonight's episode was really really REALLY good. I will officially be crushed now if this show doesn't get renewed for a second season. I'm embracing my True Blood love, folks.
I LOVE TRUE BLOOD!
See that? My love is loud and proud. I'm admitting it. I finally like the show for more than the hot dudes. But the dudes? They're really really hot. Also, Lafeyette OWNED in this episode. Oh man. I love him so very much. And he got to kick ass during I Play Chicken With the Train, which is the greatest Cowboy Troy/Big and Rich collaboration in existence, and that alone made me giddy. Seriously, that song is just the right amount of cheese and kickassity for True Blood.
Anyway folks, watch episode 1x05, "Sparks Fly Out." It may not have the same "Wow, that was mind-blowing" effect if you haven't been watching the whole season, but... I don't know. Because I've been watching from the beginning. And waiting for something like this episode. So, check it out if you want to see True Blood at its best (and odds are, if you have HBO, you've probably watched bits and pieces of all the eps anyway since they're on so often, so you probably have a good idea of what the show is about). But, yeah, it was awesome. BILL COMPTON! SEXY! SEXY SEXY MAN!
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
Do you see? Do you see how adorable they are? Unsuspecting soulmate material right there.
ME. WANT. NOW! *grabby hands*
You know, I'm going to have to change my tag for True Blood if it continues to actually be good.
