Now it's Joe's turn!
Despite this being the third episode of True Blood that I've seen, I still have no idea what's going on, but that's okay because I think the creators of the show are in the same boat. Let's get right to it.

- True Blood's use of "In Dreams" not quite as good as David Lynch's. = -4pts

- Vampire Bill is so covered in varicose veins that it looks like Sookie is having sex with a middle-aged waitress's leg. = +7pts
Season Score =-112pts
Looks like True Blood has a lot of plates spinning in the air right now, and we're not really sure which ones are important. Seven episodes deep into a show's final season, we're a little surprised that we're being asked to care about a pair of love-struck teens (who might be brother and sister?) exploring their burgeoning sexuality. But, hey, what do I know? I don't really watch this.
