Summary : Vicious and addicting feast slightly spoiled by some rotten
ingredients
Score : 8/10
Eric is such a romantic. It's what I thought after watching the
premiere. Buying the house of the woman you care about so she becomes
yours was the sweetest thing. Still with all its flaws, specially the
epileptic editing, I hadn't much hope for this second episode but
surprisingly it turned out pretty well and in fact it convinced me to
sign for the whole season ! What went right ? First the shapeshifters
and witches arcs quickly became exciting and the second was
definitely this installment ruby. The ending was mind blowing and
augurs the best for the upcoming episodes. Second Eric trying to own
Sookie, now he has bought her house, was delightful and delivered the
sexual tension and comic relief a great horror story requires. Third
I really worried for Jason after the creepy kids tied him up to a bed
and following his little big adventure was both enlightening, because
season 3 less that I am I had no idea who they were, and of course it
was also entertaining because when it comes to it Ryan Kwanten is the
man ! And I'm sure the girls love him as a super cop. Fourth Bill has
a sexy assistant who knows how to spy and serve her king. Seriously
his arc could have been done better but learning more about his past
and how he became the new king for Fangland was interesting. Again my
complain would be about the zombie editing. His few flashbacks were
awkwardly thrown in the mix with hope that things would shape by
themselves but they didn't. Masterful productions like Lost have
accustomed with creative transitions and twisted stories so these
sharp cuts between scenes are unacceptable, specially when they're so
numerous. However it was less painful than in She's Not There so
let's just forget about it until next heresy. To sum things up You
Smell Like Dinner should convince reluctant viewers to ask for their
weekly dose of True Blood. Lafayette's gay relationship is puritan,
Jessica is a poisonous freckle but her behavior felt like déjà
vu and the evil baby conspiracy is just dead boring but beside these
few cons this episode had enough wicked twists to enchaint the soul.
