Review - True Blood : Mine

In the third episode of the True Blood series titled Mine, Sookie (Anna Paquin) learns that not all vampires have the desire to make nice with the humans . . .

. . . and for the third time in as many episodes she finds herself in a very dangerous situation with Bill (Stephen Moyer) right by her side.

This was a great episode with a lot of weird shit going on. I am not sure which storyline to start with? Do I start with Sookie and Bill who seem to be on a trepidatious dance for her virginity; or do I start with Jason (Ryan Kwanten) who seems to be having a bit of trouble in the pecker department; or do I start with Tara (Rutina Wesley) who finds herself knocked upside the head with an empty vodka bottle?

So many storylines so little time to talk about them all . . . maybe I should just let you watch and see for yourself. Probably that is the best idea.

Suffice it to say that each line was quite interesting and this episode again, ended with Sookie finding herself in territory she probably ought not to have been in - although this time the trouble looks to be back in Jason’s court but these previews for the next episode have been known to fool me before.

Hopefully third time is not the only charm for True Blood and if I am being honest, I don’t think that it is. The addition of some new vampires in this episode makes me want to tune in even more next week. Viva la Vampire!
