OK, who out there agrees with me that tonight’s episode of True Blood (entitled “I Will Rise Up”) was the best episode ever!? It was funny, exciting, sexy and heartrending all rolled into one delectable hour! Eric’s true personality blossomed, his hard side melding beautifully with his newly exposed vulnerability. This episode, to me, was the truest (at least, emotionally) to the books, and while of course there were some changes (character differences, timeline changes), the actual story told was simply amazing, and I love where they took it.
Wow, a TV show that actually had me fighting back tears, trying to swallow the lump in my throat while attempting to look casual and nonchalant in front of my husband (who probably already finds me goofy enough, with all this “vampire” obsession)…tee hee!
Well all that just to say, Eric rocks, this episode was grand, and I have been renewed in my love for True Blood!
P.S. for those of you who have not yet read the actual book series, and don’t understand the Eric fascination – read it! You’ll love it!
I agree! Awesome episode..I love how you wanted to hate Eric for doing that to Sookie, yet he was so vulnerable when Godric was on the roof. Even though they take many liberties with the tv show, they always come around and keep things near the book.
I’m so sorry I missed it! I hope they play it again this week… but I know for a fact that I’m hooked to the books. I still have to buy the last one that came out but I just finished reading all the others in a row and now I can’t wait to get this last one! luv u
