Sooo, what did y'all think? Here it is, in a nutshell:
The Good:
1. Eric calling Ms. Stackhouse "Snookie" (hee hee)
2. Eric giggling when Sookie was cleaning his feet off because "it tickles"
3. This conversation:
Eric: You live... in my house? Are you - mine?
Sookie: No!
Eric (considering this): Would you like to be mine?
(Us: Yes, please!)
4. Also this conversation:
Sookie: You just killed my faery godmother!
Eric: Sorry! {sheepish grin}
5. Jessica calling Bill "My liege" (doesn't this make her like a princess now, or something?)
6. Sookie reading a Charlaine Harris novel.
7. Seeing Alcide again! Hooray, werewolves!
8. Sam seems to be in a better mood. That's always good....
9. Jason's voicemail message. "If this is an emergency, dial 911 and ask for me..."
10. Oh, just watch this...
11. And finally: our meal: we've been having themed dinners at our little viewing parties - for the first two episodes (which we watched together - thanks again OnDemand!) we had fried chicken, hush puppies and french fries. This time, it was a Swedish feast, courtesy of IKEA and in honor of our favorite Viking Vampire: Swedish meatballs, pasta in the shape of elk (?), a sparkling peach beverage, salad and princess cake for dessert, that was approved by the King of Sweden himself, and that also came with helpful eating instructions on the box.
But back to the episode:
The Bad
1. All that godawful were-panther shit. Blah blah blah blah earth daddy blah. Not a fan of this plotline. Ugh. Ever since they turned Calvin all skanky meth dealer (and now, if I recall correctly, dead skanky meth dealer) I've found that I've rather turned against the panthers. Poor Jason. He did not deserve this. None of us deserved this.
2. Andy's v-fueled rant at Sam about his trees (although that was also kind of funny). But seriously here, can we get Andy off of the v now please?
3. What is happening with Tommy and Maxine? Is he scamming her or sleeping with her (ew. But with this show, you never know.) Is he just a substitute Hoyt or is she teaching him to read or what? His little forray as "Max Fortenberry" reminded me of a line from 30 Rock - "What's the past tense of scam? Is it scrumped? Because, Mz. Fortenberry, I think you about to get scrumped!")
4. Jessica glamouring Hoyt to forget her indiscretion. Why can't we have one sweet and happy couple??? Arrghhh......
5. The tray of "refreshments" Debbie offers Sookie. I can totally imagine it. Alcide hangs up the phone with Sookie and goes "Hey Debs! Great news, Sookie's not dead! And she's comin' over to ask me a favor!" "What? Sookie's not dead? Damn, I mean, what a shame, no, wait, I mean, that's real good. Uh... why don't I go fix up some food for when she comes? You think she likes sausages?" That's what you get when you put a former v-addicted junkie werewolf in charge of snacks.
6. Nobody listening to Lafayette when he outlines the best plan to deal with Eric. Let's just forget about it. Lay low. LaLa, you've got brains AND power! Use it wisely, my son!
7. Marnie and her coven getting all uppity about Eric entering (duh, it's a public shop, he doesn't need an invitation) and getting all up in their business. Well, excuse me, but it's not like you were sitting around peacefully mixing up potions. You wanted to raise the dead! That's not okay, missy! Not okay!
8. Marnie then channeling the Power (or whoever?) asking her to come and use her as her servant on this plane. Be careful what you wish for, Marnie. Because something wicked is definitely on its way up in here.
The Ugly
1. The Hotshot werepanther stud farm (oh, poor, poor Jason).
2. Bill and Portia. Dude. You're her great-great-great (etc) grandfather. NO. Wrong. Stop. (please?) Maybe Andy will find out and join in, to get his v-fix? Urggh, now I've grossed myself out. Sorry.
3. The creepy doll Jessica gives Arlene and Terry's baby (mercifully the only time we see those two crazies in the entire episode). Why do I have a feeling that we'll be seeing more of that thing?
4. Bill doling out justice. "Ah am sennucning yew to the truew deayuth" Arrrghhh. Why are you king? Why? Why?
5. The Marie Osmond belle halloween doll thing that Maxine orders. Why all the creepy dolls?
6. Those idiots that made the "vamps-kill.com" PSA. Why do I have the feeling we'll be seeing more of that thing?
So, yeah. The Good, The Bad, The Ugly. The Eric. Sigh. I'm out, Trubies. Until next week. Do bad things.
