True Blood

Post by angelicupstart »

Just wondering if anyone ( esp in the USA) is a fan fo this show.

Have recently read the books and downloaded series one and part of series two. It's just started showing in the UK so we're abit behind.
I think it's a great show very tongue in cheek, but don't all girls love a guy with fangs ;)

I can't believe no-one watches this!
I even make Tim what it with me - even if he only does because of the amount of boob time.

Just caught up with the last 2 episodes last night. I think it's a really good show. I'm just glad that they're finally starting to fill in some of the gaps with several of the sub-plots.

Sundays are very good nights on HBO - True Blood, Entourage and Hung (decent new show)

Haha and there's a lot of boob this season! Gotta love the US cable shows :lol:

Sookie delivered bigtime in the first ep of the season! :o And then of course there's the scene around the fire in the last two eps....


I love the show, nothing like a good character driven story, and their take on Vampires is pretty good too...I love the whole hierarchy of the Vampire society that's only really hinted at or referred to in passing. I like how Vampire: The Masquerade etc did it but this is good.
Also no sparkly mormon shit if you know what I mean! ;)

Looking forward to next week bigtime, especially considering how many characters are in deep shit at the end of this one (ep 7).


How are the books?

The books are good ( fairly female orientated) but obviously the series is very different to them and is just loosely based on them.
I enjoyed last weeks episode alot and looking forward to seeing how they play out the Eric/Sookie relationship.

We're actually only on episode 5 season one in the UK so it keeps Tim busy downloading them :P

Just started watching the first season last week. As there is no HBO here in Germany, I have to rely on the dvd boxes, but thats only one season until now I guess.

Like it a lot so far!!!
We're not in this alone.
