This episode was very entertaining. So far this season of True Blood has been very good. It leaves us with cliff hangers every week. Another show by the name of Heroes used to do the same but this show does it better. You never know what to expect from a True Blood episode and you never know what kind of trouble the characters will get into. This episode was no exception. Anna Paquin as Sookie Stackhouse Sookie found her way into some nasty trouble ... Read More

I knew Nathan Westen would have to show up again at some point, I just couldn't come up with a feasible angle for it to happen. Last time we saw him he was just starting his own limo company. Of course, that...was the angle: He needed investors, and they just happened to be in Miami. Right...that should have been a red flag for Michael. Why, if Nathan's business is in Las Vegas, would he have to come all the way to Miami? ... Read More

I suspected the show's writers would somehow make use of those throwing daggers Seymour had given Michael and Fiona. That was a nice tie in. In fact, I'll admit it sort of caught me by surprise--the dagger thumping into the wall. I liked the irony of this part, too, when he's just finishing up saying, "you never know what's waiting for you around the corner." That's just one of the many reasons I love this show: the dry, off-beat wit gets me ... Read More

There was really only one certainty after last season's finale: Michael Westen WOULD survive his fall from the helicopter. Otherwise, there wouldn't be much of a show, right? But, let's face it, falling, at least, 150+ feet into water...Well, you might as well jump off of a building and land on concrete--even taking the fall feet first like Mike did. Then there's whole matter about getting to shore after that, which was five miles. Perhaps, Sam gave Mike some lessons on how ... Read More

This episode was one of the best this season. It may be the best episode for its entire run. It had action,suspense, good acting, a sad story, and beautiful women and men strutting their stuff. True Blood has gotten better and is easily one of the best taboos on television. This episode begins with Lafayette in major trouble. He witnessed Eric eat up one of the captives from last week. Eric was disappointed to learn that his hairdo was messed up and needed ... Read More

Tonight was the season premiere of one of the best shows on television. For months we have been waiting to find out if Lafayette was dead. What is up with Sam and the mystery woman? Will Tara be safe in her new home with her mother figure? Has Jason finally found god? How will Sookie handle the news that Bill has to tell her? All these questions were answered and gave us closure that we have been waiting for. The season picks up right where we left off. Andy discovered ... Read More

I had never watched an episode of Weeds until a few months ago when I got the first few seasons on Bluray, but I'm glad I did take the time to watch the first four seasons. They were all very good. The fifth season of the series is now here and the Botwins are trying to make their home along the Mexican border town of Ren Mar. The fourth season ended with Nancy Botwin (Mary-Louise Parker) saving her behind from the ... Read More

Michael Weston's tenacity might've gotten him some answers finally on who burned him, but at what cost? And how much really WAS answered? Michael met the man who burned him, right? Who the heck knows. But, it sure was fun seeing the "meeting" arranged. Along the way several surprises popped up, things went boom here and there (courtesy of Fi), and some tough decisions had to be made--and not just by Michael, but everyone involved. Firstly, Michael had to decide whether or not if ... Read More

Samantha was definitely a surprise I hadn't seen coming. It makes sense, though, that the show would have eventually introduced something of Michael's past that even Fiona and Sam were unaware of. And it was only fitting for it to be something that would then drive a further wedge between him and Fi--as well as something that would get Madeline all worked up. The story line itself involving Samantha was rather simple but nicely executed. Samantha the thief and ex-fiancee that no one ... Read More

Haiti equals "a lot of bad things"--or is that tings? The side-job this time required some convincing on Sam's part. Michael wasn't all that keen to help out. Heck, the man has his own problems, right? Well, I knew it wouldn't be long before Mikes heartstrings would be tugged and he'd end up helping out, anyway. Sam played it good, too. He poured on the guilt without hesitation. Of course, Michael knew what his friend was trying to do, but he knew he had ... Read More
