True Blood swift shifts: Meet Luna

New Season begins hot on Luna’s racy heels

Hi y’all fangbangers! Just when you thought a summer flirting with the 40°C mark was about all the hotness you’d ever need, thank you very much, HBO shows up with the Fourth season of True Blood! Now, I’m sure you wouldn’t mind letting a bit of that Louisiana heat in, would you?

Bill Compton in 1982

Season Four begins a year after last one ended — a clever scenaristic trick which allows for many deep character shifts, and gets the new Ball rolling in no time. Bill Compton for one, making friends with his political nature, has filled a gaping vacuum to become a very powerful man. He also stars in a delightful 1982 flashback where he visits an English punk bar, wearing the appropriate Sid Vicious-like mohawk — fits him like a crown, if you ask me. Tara has moved down to New Orleans where she successfully proceeds in extreme fighting any traumatic Bon Temps memory the hell out of her. Also, she’s met this shapely hot half-asian grrrl, which of course we get to see a lot of — like any other character on the show really! By the way, if you’re a 1950’s family idiom defender, and you’re still reading this, well, there’s definitely something off with you. But nevermind, just read on!

Learning the spell

Shirtless Eric

At the end of episode Two, an even more radical shift in personality happens to our favorite Sheriff Eric Northman, by the way of Lafayette’s new circle of brujo acquaintances. It’s genius really — have you ever wondered what Eric would be like if he didn’t put on his Mr. Iceberg face all the time? Well, Sookie finds that out, along with Eric wandering, mindless and also shirtless (the show seems to have spent its whole wardrobe budget on all the hot ladywear). Change is nice and all, but as with her own magical identity, Sookie would have preferred if it had stayed just the way it was. But does she really?

Sam & Luna

Which brings us to our fave scene: Sam has met a few other shifters, and he’s especially interested in long, tall Luna (I can so relate), a Navajo girl with the most beautiful racy legs you can imagine. In our excerpt (of note: unlike The Hulk, shifters do lose their clothes when turning into animals), you can see Sam has gotten a whole lot savvier at this people business, and Luna, well, if she keeps on being such a quick, no-nonsense fantastic girl, then we’re going to need to see a lot more of her.

So there you have it — notice I tried not to sell any punches! Plus, the best is certainly yet to come: I’ll be right there with y’all on Sunday night, being my occasional fanboy self. Also, if you can’t dig yourself a valid HBO connection, as season Four episodes aren’t yet on iTunes, remember that Google and the word streaming are your friends, too.

Love ya,
