Sorry folks, but I’m going to have to say it. Last night’s episode was a hokey mess. Yet, enjoyable enough. We started the episode with a crying Eric who was grieving of course for the death of Godric. However, the hot was interrupted as we find out it was just Sookie dreaming. Ha, she’s dreaming about Eric, love it. She and Stupid Hot return to Bon Temps and find the town virtually destroyed and most of the citizens are infected with Maryann’s Coroline Button Eye spell. The town is pretty much Sodom and Gomorrah at this point. Maryann has taken her shtick as far to build a meat altar in front of the Stackhouse Manor with Kobe beef nonetheless. What a waste of good beef.

Poor Sam’s only ally is drunk Andy, who wants to just kill the b*tch. Easier said than done, there Andy, because Maryann has the entire town out for Sam. Arlene who is also suffering from the crazy calls Sam’s cell and persuades him to come to Marlotte’s to rescue her from the others. Meanwhile, once Bill and Sookie arrive at Bill’s house they find out from Hoyt and Jessica that everyone in town has gone off the deep end, including Hoyt’s mom. And let me just say right now, it was pretty much the first time I have ever liked her character. I mean give her some credit she wanted to molest Stupid Hot.

Over at Casa Lafayette, Tara is still under Maryann’s spell, leaving Lettie Mae pretty much at a loss of how to help her. On a call to Sookie, who has returned to her house to find it turned into the garden of evil, Lafayette warns her to leave. Of course Maryboring returns to find them there and they proceed to have a bit of a battle to which Bill loses in fact, he bites her and finds out she’s poison to him. OK, in a cornball moment of many, Sookie touches Maryann with some sort of light that causes her to recoil. What the what now? Of course it makes, Maryann laugh and ask, “What are you?” I can answer that in one word, lame.

I’m not even going to mention the sex orgy, which has become tiresome, that took place in at the bar. Funny at first, now just whatever. Jason went all Rambo with power tools and makes an attempt to save Sam and Andy, who are now holed up in Marlotte’s freezer. He manages to keep the lynch mob at bay just long enough, but Sam ends up surrendering to save Stupid Hot and Andy. In another lame moment of the night Sookie and Bill work a mind liberation on Tara and free her from the Coroline spell. She finally returns from lalaland and they of course gather for hugs. Awww, all warm and fuzzy.

Stupid Hot earned himself the improvisation badge, he and Andy used road flairs and spot lights to make the mob think they were the god waiting for Sam’s sacrifice. And of course they bought it and Sam used his supernatural skills to turn back into the fly, making the crowd think the God smote him. Afterwards Sam wearing just wearing an apron appears outside and tells Andy and Jason, “I’ll explain it to you later. Just help me put out all these fires from the flares, before the place goes up.” Jessica has also had about all she can take of her maybe mother in law and decides to find out how she tastes. She looks like she’s be bitter to me, but Jessica’s hungry so she probably doesn’t care. Bill takes off to see the Queen, because perhaps she can help them fight Maryann. But not so fast, we end the show with a bloody foot just dangling there on the arm of what I believe to be a throne.

Overall the episode was corny as hell, I enjoyed every minute of it though. But, it definitely had a serious goofy overtone. And I AM SO over Maryann! I would give the episode a 6/10, if I were rating it. Thoughts, groans, moans?
I will leave you guys with these questions for next week’s episode:
Whose foot is that at Queenie’s?
What is this power Sookie has?
Will Sam finally reveal himself? Will Maryann finally go away?
Who’s taking bets that PEANUT is Eric?
