True Blood: Episode 1 Fashion Recap

Leave a comment

Season 4 Looks Set to Rock the Fashion Stakes:

Anna Paquin as Sookie Stackhouse in True BloodOkay, now we have finally had our fix of a new episode. The next thing is: What were they wearing? Here’s a rundown for the fashion (and vampire) inclined.

Sookie

Think Alice in Wonderland for fashion for our favorite barmaid this season. We see her in just he cutest little blue dress ever! She complements the look with one of her classic headbands.

Jason

This season Jason is channeling the ‘hot cop’ look, complete with a new goatee. While those guys out in Hotshot may think he should be kept in a freezer, I am hoping he gets a chance to strut more of the cop look soon.

Eric

More tanks, more leather, more Eric. Enough said. Nobody does cool and dead like a dead viking. But he has had over a thousand years to get his style right.

Bill

On the other hand, we have Bill. He seems to have finally worked out that Henley shirts are out of fashion, and have been since he died. He is looking more refined this season, which is the only thing befitting a king. The look certainly becomes him. Of course, now he is the bad guy, and we shouldn’t be caring one way or the other how he looks!

Wiccans/Witches

This bunch seems to fall into two distinct categories: Hot Librarian and Frumpy. Marnie fits into the latter category. It’s strange to see a leader of a coven dressed like she has a floordrobe and no light bulb. The rest of her coven fall into the ‘hot librarian’ category.

Lafayette

Now here is a man who has no fear of clothes and new and exciting ways to wear them. He has chosen the Mr. T look this season. That or someone placed a ferret on his head while he was sleeping and forgot to tell him. There are more scarves worn as head gear and more pretty long tops that would look great on a girl, but look spectacular on Lafayette.

Pam, Et Al

Pam is continuing with her pink PTA look. She still looks adorable and deadly all rolled into one.

Tara has become Toni. She has ditched the new hairstyle and gone for ultra-smooth locks. She has also taken up fighting as a profession, so expect plenty of shorts and tanks for this girl during Season 4.

Jessica and Hoyt have been raiding the same wardrobe: namely Hoyt’s. They both appear in matching jeans and plaid shirts. Jessica, however, does lose this look and take on a dress once she and Hoyt have a domestic.

Can’t wait to see what the next episode brings!

Thanks to Randi for bringing us the scoop. Remember Truebies, we welcome your contributions.

Forbitten Love — Discoveries

3 Comments

Love can be fleeting as a rainstorm, span the length of a man’s life or be as eternal as time itself. It can be so fiery that it consumes your body and soul or live as a warm ember within your beating or silent heart. It can be expressed in words, glances, the timber of your voice, tender gestures, gifts and sacrifices.  But it’s never so succulent and desperate as when it’s Forbitten Love…

It’s a rainy, hot and muggy night, the air smells of wet earth while Bill slowly wends his way through the cemetery that lies between his and Sookie’s house. Before being turned, Bill had enjoyed walking in the rain, but like so many things since, this too has lost some of its romanticism and relaxation.

Suddenly, Bill spots Hoyt Fortenberry leaving a crypt near the back of the cemetery then hurry to his truck before speeding away. He wonders what the love sick, young fool was up to. He really doesn’t hold out much hope for a relationship between Jessica and the young man. After all, it’s much more likely that Jessica will drain him during a necking session than it is a newly turned vampire being able to control her natural instincts. As a matter of fact, Bill figured this wasn’t going to amount to anything other than the baby vamp learning a cruel lesson and possibly one dead road-crew worker.

He has to admit however, he might be softening on the matter of their relationship since Jessica seems calmer and more mature with Hoyt in her life. Her attitude lately was definitely an improvement over the petulant child he had been saddled with after being forced to create her.

Bill slips inside the small dank building and searches around the musty crypt before spotting a neatly folded piece of paper peeking out of an urn. After pulling it from it’s hiding spot he drops it suddenly, startled as a spider skitters across the back of his hand. Bill lets out a few curse words then looks around embarrassed that he, a century old vampire, was just scared by a spider. Ugh.
Muttering, Bill reaches down and retrieves the paper then unfolds it and begins to read:

My Dearest Jessica,
I hope by now you got my message that I’ve left this letter here for you. I’m not sure if Vampire Bill will allow me to come to your house. I’m not so sure how to do a lot of stuff around vampires. So for now, I‘ll just leave my letters for you here and hope you‘ll leave some for me too.

Jessica, there are so many things I’d like to tell you but I guess the best thing to do is to just start at the beginning.

Meeting you in Merlotte’s the other night was the greatest thing that ever happen to me in my life. Before you walked in that door you know I was just thinking, “How come you never meet any nice girls, Hoyt?”

Then BAM, like a bolt of lightning, the sight of you hit me and froze me to the spot. When I watched you walk to the table next to mine in that beautiful yellow sundress, it felt like I was standing in a pure ray of sunshine, only not the kind that beats down on me when I’m workin’ on the road crew with Jason. And your pretty red hair with those big bouncy curls, made me want to reach right out and touch it just to see if I‘d get burned by it. It’s like you walk around carrying the warm glow of summer with you where ever you go, which is kinda’ funny since you can‘t go out in the sun at all.

When you sat down and started reading the menu then glanced up and smiled at me, I knew there was something between us. Just sitting with you talking, getting to know each other felt real good. I gotta’ admit though, I was a little taken aback when you ordered a True Blood. But that smile, along with your pretty blue eyes make me forget you’re a vampire, not that it matters to me even when I do remember you‘re one.

And when we finally kissed! WOW! My heart felt like it was ready to explode! I couldn’t even believe that you could possibly like me as much as I like you. I felt luckier than the day I won that fifty dollar scratch off!

I especially thought it was cute when your fangs popped out. But I meant what I said when I told you “Don’t be embarrassed about what you are. You’re Great!”

If you really think about it, there are more good things about being a vampire than there is bad. For example: You won’t get fat, old or ugly like my mama. Not that I care one bit about any of that, except that you don‘t get all mean like her, but I don‘t think you will. Another cool thing is you’re super strong! Heck, you could even lift the car if I ever need to change a flat tire. I really do like you a lot Jessica, and I really hope you feel the same way about me. I promise that we can take this real slow. I know we have to get used to different things about each other. Even guys and girls who aren’t vampires have to do that. I just want you to know I think we could have something real special here and hope you think so too.

I will check back here every day for your reply.

Yours,
Hoyt Fortenberry

Bill couldn’t help chuckling as he returned the folded paper back to its hiding spot in the urn. He had to admit, although Hoyt wasn’t exactly a poet he had no doubt Jessica would hug herself silly over his earnest words. He could already picture her responding with a few flowery words of her own. Not many women were able to resist the power of a love letter. With that thought, Bill hurried from the cemetery thinking of all the things he would include in his letter to Sookie.

True Blood Love Triangle

2 Comments

Hoyt & His Newfound Love InterestThere is certainly an interesting “love triangle” of sorts developing on True Blood, however it is probably not the kind of love triangle that normally comes to mind.  Though it is not the one that appears to be developing between Sookie and two of the hottest vampires, it does involve heat – heated arguments, that is.  Yes, I am speaking of Hoyt, Jessica and of course, Hoyt’s mother.

Hoyt’s mother – the typical bitter, mad at the world spurned woman – and she is not going to make things easy for Hoyt, especially when it comes to his relationship with Jessica.  Now that she is under Maryann‘s spell, there is just no telling how heated things will get.

Hoyt – what can we say about him?  He’s goofy, but sweet and has the best of intentions.  He’s brow beaten by his mother, to say the least – and he is totally enamored with Jessica.  Though he started out a relatively unseen character, he is certainly becoming central to the dynamics of the True Blood series.  Hoyt is growing up.  He is maturing and learning that he cannot continue to let the world push him around, or else he will never leave his mother’s nest.

Jessica is probably one of the funniest characters and very likely one to whom many young women can relate.  Her home life is not that different than those of a lot of other females – strong father/weak mother – and that can make for a bad combination when that female is finally let out into the real world.  Quite often, those types of girls become the prey for those seeking to corrupt everything and everyone around them.  And so it was with Jessica that fateful night she met the vampires.  It is truly interesting to watch Jessica mature as well.  She is finally leaving her shell and growing into her own.  She should be grateful that it is with someone like Hoyt; it is so obvious to see how much he cares for her.  He means her no harm and only wants to take care of her.  It will be fun to see how their relationship plays out.  Will she “make him”?  We know what just took place on Episode 10 – or do we?  We could see the attack coming.  We were pretty certain that Hoyt’s mother would anger Jessica to the point of attack – and who could blame her for lashing out?  His mother is a piece of work, to say the least.

Hoyt’s mother certainly can bring out that kind of uncontrollable anger.  She is the stereotypical, small-town/small minded, gossip queen that plagues so many of our communities.  She starts off sweet like honey and by the end of the conversation, one can feel the poison just oozing from her deepest, darkest places.  Though Hoyt is the quiet type, I have a feeling that he has the ability to flip his mother’s world upside down.  She would be wise to give Jessica a chance, but I think we all know that is not going to happen.

It will be interesting to see how this plays out.  As the end of Season 2 really ramps up, I have a feeling, Hoyt and Jessica will become one hot item – and his mother – well, what happens to her is left to be seen.  Suffice it to say, it probably will not be good.  She would probably make the most irritating vampire of all time, should it turn out that Jessica has “made” her.  I chuckle to think of that.
