Want to Watch the Second Episode of 'True Blood' Season Four a Week Early?

Your "True Blood" withdrawal is about to be cured, as the season four premiere is just a few short days away. But will that premiere episode really sate your hunger? You know how much "True Blood" loves cliffhangers, so you can bet that after watching the season four premiere, you're not going to want to wait a week to watch the second episode.

Well, lucky you, you don't have to!

HBO, in its infinite benevolence, will be making the second episode of season four available a week early, so that fans can watch the premiere and immediately watch the second ep if they want to.

The early delivery will come courtesy of HBO GO, the pay channel's new online streaming service. By going to the HBO GO website or downloading the app to your mobile device, you'll get access to tons of episodes of HBO shows, including the first and second episodes of "True Blood" season four.

There's a catch, though: not every cable provider has made a deal with HBO GO yet. So if you subscribe to HBO through Cablevision or Time Warner Cable (like I do...*sob*), you won't be able to use the service until a deal is struck. Which should be classified as a form of torture by the United Nations, in my opinion.
