The shots are of the Longwood Plantation in Natchez, MS. The outside is finished and gorgeous! The inside was never completed -- only the basement rooms. Then the Civil War began. My husband's family lives in Natchez and it's an amazing tour to take if you ever have the chance.<br /><br />Love reading the reviews even though I'm always a season behind.

('I'll tear out your ribcage and wear it as a hat.' The answer from Whistler was 'hello to the imagery, very nice!').<br /><br />Also, I just need to say, I love Talbot. He is awesome. He and Eric would actually make a weirdly good couple, if I didn't want Eric to be with Sookie.Juliettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00203399623895589924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-69107747094928659822010-07-25T18:10:53.232-04:002010-07-25T18:10:53.232-04:00Loving the episodes and getting more and more intr...Loving the episodes and getting more and more intrigued by the arcs.

I enjoyed this episode for the most part but admit I skipped through some scenes (Bill, Alcide, Jason). I love Franklin and think he is a great addition to the show. I want him to stick around. Anytime I get a lot of Eric I am a happy camper and I was amused by his flirting with Talbot. <br /><br />Lafayette and Jesus have the potential to be a lot of fun and I am looking forward to see how their relationship plays out.WindyCnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-482776491826717512010-07-20T18:33:34.280-04:002010-07-20T18:33:34.280-04:00Wow, I loved this episode!

I am kind of bummed that True Blood isn't an extra 15 minutes long because that is what they need to do justice to their storylines, they've got a few too many for the length of their episodes! <br /><br />Because of the plethora of disparate storylines I rarely see an overarcing theme in the episodes these days. I really hope the theme wasn't just that all our characters are getting into trouble, because that is a bit simplistic. Also, it fits last week's episode just as well. Maybe more so, what with Jason doing some blackmailing and Lafayette failing at V dealing without Eric's help. The rest of the characters have been in trouble from the get go this season. And if the theme is trouble, then oh dear for Jason and Lafayette, because I really bought into both their new romantic partners, they've got good chemistry! <br /><br />Funny that Crystal is a big book character and yet Jesus isn't in the books (for obvious reasons, if you've read the books) but I haven't a clue what's going to happen this season with either of them. Same for Sookie's glowy hand. I hope it is handled well, since it could be a rather big reveal when it comes. AB better not drop the ball on this one!<br /><br />One last thought - I wasn't convinced at the wonderfulness of Franklin Mott until this episode, but now I'm starting to look forward to the next scene with him and Tara. Maybe it's because she's finally trying to escape/take control instead of just being a victim the whole time. <br /><br />Ok one more last thought - yes Bon Temps is totally like a Southern Sunnydale! Or is every sleepy Louisiana town full of supes in the True Bloodverse?Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13280351222656849538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-69613342466937927802010-07-20T10:37:21.124-04:002010-07-20T10:37:21.124-04:00Damn Tara needs to consider temporary celibacy aft...Damn Tara needs to consider temporary celibacy after this....Girl cant catch a break.

That's what has been bothering me. Some of it I don't really care about (Sam, Arlene, Jessica). Some of it I do. But I'm afraid they may drag this out like the whole Maryann thing.<br /><br />I also loved the Lafayette storyline, I figured it was coming when Jesus looked at him in the nursing home. The genuine surprise by Lafayette gave the episode some nice sweetness without being overly sweet.<br /><br />If I were Tara and I got free, I would leave Bon Temps immediately. She's had nothing but bad luck in that town. Actually, I think of the town as being a Southern Sunnydale, something weird is always going on there.Enidnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-5707896464602416482010-07-20T02:05:00.264-04:002010-07-20T02:05:00.264-04:00Anybody want to guess that Eric's last fight b...Anybody want to guess that Eric's last fight before being turned was against werewolves?

But for some of us who have never read the books, the story is just convoluted and fascinating. I have the sense that Bill and Eric are reversing roles somewhat this season, with Bill showing his dark side and Eric showing his softer side. I love the darker Bill and I miss the darker Eric. And once again, Bill puts his eternal life on the line for Sookie.<br /><br />I have no idea what is going to happen next. It's hard not to get spoilers on the show, but I have no idea of what Sookie's lightening strikes are about or why Bill had info on her. Argh, the anticipation.<br /><br />Good call on the wetnaps. Maybe someone should send a memo to Talbot. Is all the gore a reminder of the fact that vampires are like savage animals?<br /><br />I'll let you keep Eric and I'll keep Alcide!!!Cecilianoreply@blogger.com
