True Blood returned for its third season sexier and bloodier than ever. Season 2 left a ton of cliffhangers with Bill's kidnapping, Jason shooting Eggs and Sam off to find his birth parents. Season 3 picked up right where things left off, with one major addition: werewolves.
Bill in Mississippi
Bill wasn't kidnapped by Eric, but by a mysterious group of V addicts who took him to Mississippi. After wandering around shirtless for most of the episode, Bill finally started to return home before running into a pack of wolves. Not just any wolves - werewolves!
Sookie's Search and Eric's Butt
Sookie spent the majority of the premiere hopping from one person to another to find Bill, ultimately using Jessica to track down the car the kidnappers used. More importantly, Sookie's search involved a stop at Fangasia where Pam let her into the dungeon to find Eric, naked and "initiating" the new dancer with a six hour sex session.
Eric, The Queen and the Magister
After just one episode back in season 1, the beloved Magister, in charge of doling out vampire punishment, returned to investigate the dramatic increase in V sales in Louisiana. The Queen and Eric covered their own butts and it became very clear that Eric's primary storyline this season will deal with trying to cover up his involvement with Lafayette in selling vampire blood.
The Rise of Pam
The Magister's inquiry about V trafficking may not be good news for Eric, but it's great for Pam, his alluring right-hand woman, as she stepped up big-time in this episode. Pam stole the show for me thanks to her great attack on Lafayette, demanding that he take her seriously and sell off the rest of the V quickly.
Sam's Homoerotic Dream
It turns out Sookie isn't the only one having inappropriately sexy dreams about a vampire whose blood she drank. While in Arkansas to find his birth parents, Sam has a dream where a shirtless Bill Compton visits him and asks for a hot shower. After offering Bill the shirt off his own back, Sam is invited to join Bill in the shower for some "hard" water. If you're a fan of homoeroticism, this was probably the single hottest scene in the history of television, with tons of breathless anticipation before Sam woke up at just the right time (or wrong time, depending on what you're into).
Jason's Non-Threesome
Still freaking out over shooting Eggs, Andy tries to get Jason to cover it up by returning to his horndog roots. Jason tries by inviting a pair of veterinary students to his place, but poor dumb Jason can't get it up because he's haunted by visions of bullet holes in their heads. On the bright side, the show still got Jason naked even when he's not having sex.
Hoyt/Jessica and Terry/Arlene
The season 3 premiere of True Blood was loaded with storylines for everyone. Hoyt moved in with Jason and tried to get Jessica back, but she's preoccupied by what to do with the trucker she killed. One way to make this show even better would be adding a lot more Hoyt, because he's probably my favorite underused character. Meanwhile, Arlene's increased sense of smell told her she's pregnant with Terry's baby, which left her freaking out.
True Blood is definitely back and it's getting ready to do very bad things with us this season.
This is one of my favorite TV shows! I'm glad that I'm not the only one who likes it. And the nudity is the best!
ReplyDeleteI don't have time to comment lately, or even write my own blogs, but you know I had to come back to write a comment on this. I have to say though Gayte, that I feel like your summary was missy a little something compared to last season. Your wit perhaps, or that it seems rushed, not sure....Just a thought though.
ReplyDeleteI am a True Blood fan. I will say I believe it has taken an over the top turn compared to the first season. First with that whole Mary Ann/Maynard plot last year and now the Werewolf thing this year, but I still love it.
Here is my weird question. What year is this suppose to be? Didn't last season take off right where season 1 left off with the dead woman in the parking lot with her heart cut out? Now this takes off right where season 2 left off. Has three years went by on the show, or still year one. I mean I know this is a stupid thought, but I'm just curious. Tara has the same braids she had in season one. Lettie Mae still has the same inch of hair she had in the first episode. Why is it the men get hair changes? Hoyt this year, last year Eric. Yet the ladies are still the same, because it's suppose to still be the same year?
I love Hoyt. I'm sorry he is one of my favorite characters. I love the whole him and Jessica plotline. I'm sorry I find him to be the cutest guy on the show. I like him more than any other guy on the show. I know I should be saying Eric, Jason, or Lafyette, but for me it is Hoyt. I have a feeling that he will be used more this season. My gut says maybe even turned into a Werewolf. I know crazy, but there was something about that conversation with him Jason and those two vet girls, that planted that seed in my head. Those two girls obviously have something to do with the whole werewolf plot.
Those guys who kidnapped Bill I believe are not just V addicts, but I believe V addicts who are werewolf. It was them coming back for Bill in the woods. That why he warned them that he had fed since they last saw him. I mean where were those other men's bodies who were int he car. The one guy who was dead, was because bill broke his neck, but where are the other men at? I though that whole scene in the car was funny. That whole conversation about sucking blood and spitting it into some other man's mouth is gay, but playing with your nipples in a car full of men, isn't?
I think there is going to be a crazy plot twist, with Arlene being pregnant. Don't know how, but I think so. When they were under the Maryanne spell, that had no idea, who they were having sex with, remember, that don't even think hey had sex yet. I have a feeling she is going to give birth to something supernatural.
When that whole seen with Bill coming to Sam's hotel room. I was like, were is this going. I was shocked out of my mind. How far are they going to take this. Stupid me didn't catch on till right before Sam woke up, that this must be a dream sequence. I was so confused there for a moment.
All in all this show is addictive.
GayteKeeper you know a good website where I can watch this online for free? I don't have HBO. Damn it!
