Gays of our Lives (June 23, 2009)

Good Times, Bad Times – Lucas Sanders returns home after being away for years and his mother and sister couldn’t be happier. But while the Sanders family thinks their son is back for just a visit, what they don’t know is that he’s planning on staying home for a while. Oh, yeah, he’s got a few secrets as well. What might those be?

Perhaps the site you’re reading this on is a clue! And while the family might be happy to see Lucas home, not everyone is so inclined.

Will Lucas’ homecoming be a happy one?

True Blood – Jason starts to wonder if joining the anti-vampire cult was such a bright idea, but when the cult leaders flatter the hunk with promises and compliments, his growing doubts about them fade away – for now.

Elsewhere, Sam’s negative attitude has him wondering if maybe it’s time for him to start over some place new. Meanwhile, what is that strange fog that’s turning people on at Maryann’s parties? And in a very scary and gruesome incident, Sookie is attacked by a mysterious horned creature, forcing Bill and Eric to work together to save her.

What do you bet that’s going to lead to some complications down the road?

True Blood's Eric (Alexander Skarsgård)

EastEnders – Christian is having a hard time mixing business with pleasure this week. Turns out his in-laws are none too happy that their café went up in flames while Christian was in charge, and are even less thrilled that he’s gone through the renovations without their approval.

On the romantic front, like all closet cases, Syed insists his kissing Christian meant nothing and wants to forget it ever happened. Christian isn’t buying it and puts his best flirt on. Syed shoots him down, saying he is, um, ‘normal. ’

That’s not a good sign.

Syed’s lips say no… but his eyes definitely say ‘more, please.’

Christian’s no fool and doesn’t believe Syed’s denials. In fact, he thinks maybe Syed’s girlfriend Amira should know the truth about her boyfriend. That leads to another heated row between the two men as Christian threatens to tell Amira himself.

That's also not a good sign.
