True Blood Bites: "Whatever I Am, You Made Me"

The big theme of this week's True Blood are vampire makers and how tough it is being a newbie in the vampire world.

The big theme of this week's True Blood are vampire makers and how tough it is being a newbie in the vampire world. When Pam flashes back to how she was made, we understand how significant the bond between maker and "child" really is, which is particularly important for Tara, whose survival may depend largely on that bond. Jason is also realizing how he became the way he is in one of the show's more interesting revelations.

Meanwhile, Sookie reveals her big secret to Alcide, and Bill and Eric are still embroiled in a Sanguinista scandal, but at least they take their shirts off, so it's not a total bore. But to get specific about the best and worst points of the episode, just read more.

True Blood Bites: "Authority Always Wins"

The second episode of True Blood's fifth season is pretty boring in terms of plot: not much happens, and the whole introduction of the Vampire Authority is hardly exciting.

The second episode of True Blood's fifth season is pretty boring in terms of plot: not much happens, and the whole introduction of the Vampire Authority is hardly exciting. Over at Sookie's house, Lafayette and Sook are trying to keep Tara in line, and we finally get a glimpse at something I've been wanting to see for the last couple of seasons: Pam's backstory.

Let's hope that the writers are just ramping up for some more action, but until now, we're still just seeing setup. To break down the best and worst events of the episode, just read more.

True Blood Bites: Season Five Premiere "TURN! TURN! TURN!"

True Blood is back in a big way!

True Blood is back in a big way! For the season five premiere, we get sex, blood, naked Alexander Skarsgard, and at least one shocking development. We pick up exactly where we left off last season, and I mean exactly — Bill and Eric are still cleaning up Nan Flanagan's guts, and there's a little retread of Sookie's final moments with Tara. Even though there are a few new characters, we only meet a couple of them, but I'm dying to talk about one thing in particular.

Ready to get to all the bloody goodness? Just read more.

True Blood Catch-Up: Where the Characters Left Off

With True Blood's fifth season premiering tonight, we thought we'd sharpen our fangs, I mean, our memories of where everyone left off last season.

With True Blood's fifth season premiering tonight, we thought we'd sharpen our fangs, I mean, our memories of where everyone left off last season. If you recall, things aren't so peachy down in the perpetually dark Bon Temps. The season four finale leaves more that one recurring character dead, revives a couple old ones, and leaves the door wide open for some new introductions. Let's remember the final look at Sookie and company before the premiere of season five.

Anna Paquin showed off her baby bump last night at the season five premiere of True Blood in a peekaboo Rachel Comey dress. She joined her costar and husband, Stephen Moyer, along with Alexander Skarsgard, Rutina Wesley, and Joe Manganiello for the big debut at the Cinerama Dome in Hollywood. Stephen and Anna are expecting their first child together in the Fall, and on the red carpet, their cast mates raved to us about how happy they are for the pair.

Last season's finale episode was full of the series's requisite cliffhangers, and while the cast kept tight-lipped on many of the upcoming plot twists, Rutina's appearance on the carpet added fuel to the rumors that Tara isn't dead after all and will be back in Bon Temps this year. There will also be several new characters on True Blood this season. Law and Order alum Christopher Meloni will appear as the head of the Authority, and there are several werewolves, vampires, and humans joining the cast. Stay tuned for today's PopSugar Rush to catch all our interviews with the cast as they share a sneak peek at what's ahead this season.
