“9 Crimes” (Ep. 28)
SUNDAY, JULY 11 (9:00-10:00 p.m. ET/PT)
“Sookie (Anna Paquin) joins Alcide (Joe Manganiello) at a raucous engagement party for Debbie Pelt (Brit Morgan), his former fiancée; Eric (Alexander Skarsgård) is given a deadline to locate Bill (Stephen Moyer); Andy (Chris Bauer) gets a promotion and draws Jason’s (Ryan Kwanten) attention; Franklin (James Frain) takes Tara (Rutina Wesley) on a road trip; Arlene (Carrie Preston) is irked by Jessica’s (Deborah Ann Woll) arrival at Merlotte’s; Sam (Sam Trammell) brokers a deal with Tommy (Marshall Allman) and his parents, Melinda (J. Smith Cameron) and Joe Lee (Cooper Huckabee); Bill “procures” dinner for Russell (Denis O’Hare) and Lorena (Mariana Klaveno).”

Okay, I L.O.V.E.D. this episode!!! Can't even begin to tell you my favorite part.

Yes I can! Eric's fantasy....YUM!!!

Then, Pam & Eric throwing Bill under the bus to the Magistrate!! INSANE!!!

Still loving Mickey. He is crazy!!!

Sam and his family. Kinda dragging down the episode, but it's still a great storyline. Poor Sam! His "real" family is something I wouldn't wish on ANYONE let alone someone as nice as Sam.

WHOOPS!! It's about to play again!

RuPaul? Yeah, this has been a good episode. Best of the season so far, you think? I thought Jason and the "new" quarterback at Bud's retirement was the only boring part. So Franklin is Mickey? Readers have told me about how psychotic Mickey is.....I'm liking it though. It's like Fatal Attraction. Wtf @ that Hulk punch Bill did to Lorena. I'm sorry, but I had to laugh at that. It was so over the top. I'm starting to dislike the King of Mississippi.....still liking Talbot though. I hope he doesn't lose his humor.

@ Sookie knocking those shots down at the bar. She was like "Fuck Yeah!" lol

I had a friend over last night, and I basically tried to throw him out at 9.

He decided to stay and find out what the show was about...

He kept asking questions and commenting, so I spent most of the show explaining. THEN his damn cell rang, and he sat there talking to someone!

I'm gonna need to watch again when I come home from work. (and what was up with that part after the show? )

I laughed out loud at "Come on RuPaul." That, and Franklin taping the flowers to Tara's hands.

Sookie annoys me.

Honestly, this episode was blah to me. I loved the new look on Sookie though but when Bill was breaking up with her and her first words were "shut the fuck up"!!! I had to roll on the floor dying laughing!!!

I liked Franklin at first but now he's turning into this stalker vamp. It's irking me.

I loved how Eric saved Lafayette from a butt whuppin'...then proceeded to have a strategy talk with him in the car..but after the phone call from Pam, he calmly rolls down the window and disappears into the air while Lafayette was talking his head off.

It's crazy how hard Eric is falling for Sookie when he never could understand why Bill had such an attachment to her.

Did anyone else recognize how ugly this Debbie chick is? And that fool is tripping all over himself over her? Bitch please.

Eric's fantasy, holy shit!! That was HOT!!

Russell and Lorena irk me.

I love the scenes with Eric and Lafayette. Eric and Pam too.

Franklin is irking me too, although him duct taping the flowers to Tara's hands was pretty funny!

It looks like AB has combined the two characters. In the book (ITB) Franklin is this distinquished older vamp who is like a sugar daddy for Tara. ITB, Franklin has stayed with the old vampire ways and passes Tara off to Micky. Micky is a very mean vampire who bullies Tara.

ITB it's as simple as that. Neither Franklin or Micky are involved with anything else.

Sookie annoys me.

I H.A.T.E. it when people do that. I have that happen regularly. My friends know that I'm just a little into the show ( ) so they want to watch it and see what the deal is and that's cool, just do it on your own time, or STFU while you're watching it with me. I'll be happy to explain shit to you once I see the episode.

As for the "Post Mortum" (sp?) segments after the show, I think they're a little like the "Taste of True Blood" minisodes. Meant to tease, entertain and fill in gaps.

That's how she is ITB so it's actually pretty close to reference. I'm not loving the changes AB has made, combining Josephine's & Hair of the Dog and the "Operation Werewolf", but things have been entertaining so far so AB's getting the benefit of the doubt at this point.

The one thing I'm REALLY not liking is how AB's changing Alcide's personality.

Hey Nothin! I was thinking about you last night during the episode and came here just to reply to your awesome True Blood thread ) I'm really wondering about Bill - I know from what what you've said of the books he didn't have good intentions for Sookie from the beginning and I wonder if we're starting to see that now. Eric seems to be showing his humanity more, but I really can't believe that Pam framed Bill for selling V and didn't just let the queen take the blame.

Sorry O.G.!!!!

I watched it the first time at a friend's house. We went from my grandmother's 80th birthday party over to the friend's house so I wasn't at a computer until after the first airing!!

I'm ready for Jason's storyline to move on a bit. Frankly, it's irritating with his "Make me a cop NOW!!" bullshit.

I really like the crazy vamp that's got Tara. So unpredictable!!!

I just ordered the first 8 books...

(Like I don't have other things I could be doing! )

I read books 5-9 last week. I was literally averaging a book a day. I gotta get the last one.

I dunno something about this ep irritated me and I can't put my finger on it. It seemed much darker than the previous ones or something. I need to watch it again to make up my mind.

Make sure you don't invite anyone over... I'm STILL annoyed!

Here's some pics and video my homegirl sent me from the premiere in LA. If you pause the first one in the right place, you can see Eric in the middle of the crowd. You can also see him in the second pic in the lower right corner a lil to the right from center. He's kinda looking down.

I forgot to ask her where the premiere was but I think it was at the Roosevelt judging by the architecture of the room.

I'm irritated that they've made so many of the Weres these dirtbag, biker, V addicted douchebags.

I'm irritated that Alcide is actively trying to get back w/ Debbie (he is seeming kinda whiny and needy) & Sookie is trying to be the relationship guru (just plain annoying).

I don't like how violent Bill is with Lorena. Totally changes the vibe of that whole relationship.

I'm REALLY irritated with what they've done with Hotshot.

That's the only problem with knowing the books and the show. I'm loving this season, but grr! I love the books to and would love to see some of the vibe of the books make it into the show.

I was definitely put off by the violence. In the past, the violence seemed kinda cartoonish but last night it was just different. I didn't like the scenes with the stripper.

Bill & the stripper? Yeah, that was so sad! I think it just darkens the place that Bill is in now. He is really trying to retain his humanity, but is being forced to reject it and be vampire.
