After taking a week off (even vampires and werewolves celebrate July 4, apparently), True Blood returned tonight with a new episode and a new character: Debbie Pelt.

As always, we're hard at work on a detailed recap and review, both of which will be live first thing tomorrow morning. We encourage readers to return to TV Fanatic then for in-depth analysis and discussion... but weigh in with your initial thoughts on "9 Crimes" now.

Visit our True Blood forum to dish on the episode with fellow fans and comment/vote below. What did you think?
