Iggy Pop & Best Coast did the song for the credits.

Why do all interesting episodes go less than an hour?
Tara and Jessica looked the best they ever have tonight, and I never thought I would say that about Tara. Good to see Russell back, and it looks like he will share a scene with Meloni, looking forward to that one.

Yes, Tara was looking damn hot tonight. Any Tara haters that disagree?
A smoke monster! At least this one can start fires.
Did the shifter killers think they were killing vampires? I didn't really understand that.
Do Bill and Eric have a standing invitation to Sookie's house? Or does it not matter because Eric still owns it?
And shouldn't they have some silver they can throw over Russell? How were they planning on getting him back to the authority? I assume they would need proof that they found him and killed him.

I actually didn't think this was a particularly hot Jessica. I've seen her look much better IMO.
Eric, I think when it comes to trying to kill a 3,000 year old vampire, Elvis had it right (though in a different context). A little less conversation, a little more action please.

The invitation barrier doesn't seem to work unless a human owns the house.

I would mark out if at some point a White Walker shows up on this series.
In terms of the shifters, in the books

She looked better than usual, but she's still ugly. I do like her as a vampire more if for no other reason than when she starts whining and acting out Pam's right there to quell that shit. In previous seasons everyone just helped enable her bullshit all the time.

I thought that shifters were pretty small in numbers even compared to vampires. How do these people even know about shifters to want them dead?
Any thoughts on Jesus' head with his mouth sewn shut appearing to both Lafayette and his mom.
I'm still waiting for a scene between Tara and her mother this season...

Good to see the Smoke Monster found employment on a new show.
By far the best episode we've seen this year...took them long enough to find Russell...amazing how much life Denis O'Hare adds to the show.

Reading reviews/comments online I expected the worst here. But yeah, I also liked this episode.
I really like the "new" Sookie too. And poor Alcide!

I was already liking this season, but this was easily the best episode so far this year.
Now I may be wrong, but I think...

Was Tara fucking Hoyt? Or just drinking from him?

Well Tara did become a professional fighter for a while didn't she? I know we all tried to block out that horrendous storyline.
