It's been such a busy summer that I haven't had a chance to talk about "True Blood." However, with last week's awesome episode and last night's heart-wrenching installment, it has been my must watch show of the summer.
Last week we finally got some closure to the Fellowship of the Sun storyline when Eric rescued Sookie from the evil anti-vampire church. The episode ended on a fantastic cliffhanger when a suicide bomber attacked the vampire lair.
This week, as a consequence of this attack, Sookie was tricked into sucking Eric's blood. Which means that they now share a bond and it led to the best scene of the season, with Eric and Sookie sharing a steamy yet sweet bedroom talk.
This was the scene so hot, it broke my TV. For the rest of the night my TV was just a little bit off. Of course that was a small price to pay for seeing Alexander Skarsgard at his best.
With all due respect to Bill and Sookie fans, Eric and Sookie have an undeniable chemistry that must be explored.
Last night also provided Skarsgard with a chance to really showcase Eric's tender side as he said goodbye to his maker Godric, when the 2000 year old vampire decided he'd had enough and waited on the roof for the sunrise.
The two vampires shared an emotional goodbye that capped off the episode brillantly.
With two episodes left this season, "True Blood" has really hit its stride and will hopefully continue to provide must watch television as it explores the next chapter of these characters stories.
