HBO’s True Blood – Episode 3

Sep 24

The third episode of HBO’s new series aired on sunday.  I dont know what the deal is with this show.  It started weak, then the second episode was pretty good.  This episode was pretty disappointing.  I really don’t know what do think about this series so far.  I can’t decide if it is worth investing the commitment to ANOTHER tv show if there isn’t any promise.  

After the climax ending of the last episode, they immediately brought the drama back down in the opening seconds of “Mine.”  The concept of this episode involves Bill having to ‘claim’ Sookie as his slave in order to save her from his psychotic Nest of Vampire friends.  After this, Sookie’s boss and her bestfriend hook up while Her brother Jason looks for Viagra.  

Like I said earlier, all in all, this was a very disappointing episode.  I think i’m going to give the next episode a shot and if it fails, I plan abondoning ship.  The episode does show some promise as a familiar face from HBO will show up. Alexander Skarsgard of ‘Generation kill‘ fame will show up as a thousand-year-old Vampire that Bill will have to interact with.  Could be interesting… but will it be interesting enough?

Here’s an interesting review of the True blood series thusfar. 

With shows like Entourage, Chuck, and Heroes coming into full swing, I don’t want to waste time no a subpar series.

Entourage – Season 5 – Episode 3

The 3rd episode of HBO’s hit series Entourage aired last night.  I love it.  ”The all out fall out” was a fantastic episode.  Vince almost going bankrupt. Check. Drama becoming an alcoholic. Check.  Ari wrecking a Ferrari in a race with D-bag Adam Davies. Check. 

This episode really did have everything.  I’ve said it before, but I am stoked that the series has finally gotten back to its roots.  As much fun as it is to watch rich people do stupid outrageous things, it is more entertaining to watch drama.  

The premise of this episode follows Vince’s attempt to avoid filing for bankruptcy by showing up at a sweet-16 party for $200,000. Meanwhile, Ari’s wife has just bought him a brand new cherry red Ferrari.  While Ari is out on a test drive in his new dream car, he runs into his are nemesis Adam Davies.  They place a small bet and the race is on.  The race ends with Ari driving his ride into the back of a truck.  Vince shows up to the sweet-16 party with Eric, Turtle, and Drama.  Drama, still upset from his breakup befriends a bottle of Johnny Walker Blue.  As Vince is serenading the birthday girl, Drama decides to join Vince and make the song a duet.  The episode ends with Johnny puking his brains out… all over the birthday cake.

Will Vince get paid or will he have to file bankruptcy?  What’s happening with this great script that Eric found.  What will Drama do next?
