I think the use of werewolves with Russell's brand is also a clue.

I had to read that post again. I was like, "Russell Brand was in this ep?!"

Justified is on hiatus, so I don't feel the need to point out how hot Natalie Zea is every week. Although I feel compelled to do the same with Jessica on this show now.

I remember thinking it sounded like Talbot. In fact, I thought they were trying to make that really clear. Maybe I'm just remembering it wrong.

Below is a link to an interview with the actor that plays Alcide. Be warned though, there are SPOILERS in the interview!

That would actually be pretty cool, if nothing else Talbot could be discovered as the culprit at the last minute, he gets whacked, and we get to keep Russell around!

Okay, I was just in the check-out aisle and saw the new TV Guide that had a cover story on True Blood and whether people were team Eric of Bill. They had two different covers that had Anna Paquin with one of the respective actors. In each photo both actors had his hand more or less on her ass. Guess it's hard to resist copping a feel on her.

Just watched the episode. Was anyone else annoyed with Tara's plan to take down Alcide's ex? Her bright idea was to distract her by having Sookie scream. The only problem with this was she was already looking in the opposite direction and when Sookie screamed her focus turned to the two of them. Seemed a bit counterproductive to me.
