Well, I did love that moment when Sookie deals with Jessica correctly and Bill relaxes and seems almost human - then Sookie hits him with the Bartlett stuff.

I think that it's easy enough to say that she should realize what she's gotten into but I think that actually they haven't been together very long at all and her 21st century idea of what a relationship is totally clashes with his 19th century upbringing AND vampire tradition (which is based on even older human interactions) - so it doesn't bother me that she still gets unhappily surprised at what he is capable of.

And I'm very, very happy that Lafayette is alive. I don't really want him to become a vampire because I like him the way that he is - but I can also see the attraction to if for him.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

This epeisode actually sums up a lot of what I love about Bill, how that earnest straightforwardness can be both brutal (such as killing Molester!Uncle) and comic: "And while you are in this town, you must not feed on humans! Also, we recycle in this house!") I just find him terribly enjoyable.

And Bill trying to find something modest for Jessica at, what?, Forever 21? Try JC Penny, honey.

So, what, Bill stops Jessica from killing darling Pa so he can kill the whole family? Or, no, okay, he's going to glamour them. Right? RIGHT?!

So that's what everyone meant by Mary Anne and her sexy fog...

I don't really get what it is that Bill was going to do.

The scene with the overly glamoured blonde was hi-sterical. That actress is a fucking hoot.

Oh yeah. That was great.

Maybe Bill will kill and dispose of Jessica's family in a much cleaner way than Jessica would have.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I'm experiencing technical difficulties with my DVR preventing me from watching tonight! Damn.

"We have trust issues." Mylar

Eric is made of awesome. Eric, Pam, Mr. Chow, really the whole vampire family. Eric in F21 in a blue track suit? Oh, my. All kinds of fantastic.

And I'm still loving Bill's vampire baby. Poor, poor Jessica. I do enjoy that phrase "mean as a snake." I should use it more often. I, too, am struggling to figure out how Bill is going to make that situation any better, unless he's just planning to glamour the whole family. But how long would that last? I mean, it's not like the Men In Black forget everything light flash, no? He can't just make them not remember that Jessica was ever there, right? As long as it doesn't end in a true vampire baby, a la Louis' vampire baby in Interview with the Vampire, I think I'm OK with that.

And speaking of vamping, I don't think I want vampire Lafayette. No, no. I prefer him as a human of low moral character.

I almost had a twinge of interest in Jason Stackhouse tonight. Huh. He is one sick puppy, poor boy. Not seeing his naked ass each and every week continues to make his character more and more enjoyable. Shirtless is OK, though. Yes, shirtless is very much OK.

Still don't care all that much about Sookie and Bill. I can smell the break up around the corner and I think I'm going to quite enjoy it.
