True Blood is an American television drama series created by Alan Ball, based on the Sookie Stackhouse book series by Charlaine Harris. The show is broadcast on HBO and premiered on September 7. The show has been renewed for a second season.
True Blood details the co-existence of vampires and humans in Bon Temps, a fictional small Louisiana town. The series centers on Sookie Stackhouse (Anna Paquin), a telepathic waitress at a diner, who falls in love with vampire Bill Compton (Stephen Moyer).

Well, as someone who idolizes Alan Ball\'s creative pursuits, yet absolutely loathes the vampire genre, I wasn\'t sure how to approach this series. So we\'re four episodes in and I think it\'s safe to say that although I\'m not absolutely sold on the show, I am definitely intrigued by the initial character development and find myself highly interested to find out what will happen next.
I like how within the context of the show that vampires are a minority group just like many others in the United States and are in the public eye for the first time as many, including the primary male character, Bill Compton, have decided to "come out of the coffin" and are now "mainstreaming" it by living out in the open with humans. Of course, there are many other vampires who are clinging to their roots and are not taking their approach. The conflict between Bill and many of these vampires is something else that I particularly like.
Definitely worth a viewing.
-
I think the plot development is a little slow.
-
havent gotten to watch the fourth episode yet. liking the show so far though. great concept.
-
i\'d love to stick it to anna paquin. that alone gives me enough reason to watch the show.
-
diehard 6ft under fan. love campy vamp movies. hate the show. disappointed in alan ball.
-
i\'ve been hooked since day one....and now that i am stuck in the land of sickness and no breakfast, it seems that true blood and one tree hill are the ONLY things i get excited about:) True Blood = Genius in my book .... I also think the cast chosen for this production is outstanding. Well done Alan
-
I like it well enough so far. But as its in the same slot as Dexter it\'s second on my list, thank god for DVR. :)
Anna Paquin is looking particularly hot, in her southern white trashy garb.
I, like Chris, am not totally sold on the whole thing yet, but I\'m gonna keep watching till something makes me do otherwise. It seems like an odd complaint, but I feel like they use the word "vampire" too much. I\'m watching and buying the whole thing, then they say "vampire" practically every other word and it removes me from the situation. It reminds me how ridiculous the whole concept is. I also agree with Tyzak that the plot development is a little slow, but it seems to be picking up some what int he last couple episodes.
Alan Ball has some serious obsession with death.
-
Is this going to a be long-running show?
Or another 1-season wonder?
-
True Blood has been renewed for a second season.
-
that is fantastic news
-
I saw one episode, thought it was kinda weird, but maybe it\'s because I didn\'t watch the first few. What is that True blood shit they drink? Does it repel them from vampires or something?
-

It\'s synthetic blood that gives vampires what they need w/o having to kill humans.

That just makes you "high" or something.
More specifically, it makes your senses somewhat vampric for a time.
Though it is not mentioned alot, Sookie, I think, has some of this ability after drinking Bill\'s blood for healing.

I just watched the first two episodes. I really like the underlying themes of racism and homophobia in America symbolized by the vampires. It\'s interesting and I feel myself getting hooked just because I have to know what happens next. I too cannot stand the whole vampire-genre in general, and I\'m not sold either that this is a great show yet. But I\'ll keep watching. Tara and Lafayette are great characters. I love the constant sexual intensity and suspense too. Some of the dialogue is really cheesy. Whatever, we\'ll see. So far it has kept me interested, that is all.
-
Some of the dialogue is really cheesy.
I completely agree. But somehow i keep watching it....
I almost feel like it verges on being a CW/WB show.
-
"I love Mondays, first Heroes, then......you."
too funny. (if you\'re a Heroes fan)
-
Please tell me that there is more of a twist and that they didn\'t give away the killer at the end of the last episode... I love this show, but that would be pretty anti-climatic if that was the case.
-
Seems likely he is the killer. But when will the others realize? And this fang-bang killer can\'t last as the most important mysterious part of the series forever. Sookieee.

were we supposed to recognize that photo?
-
I didn\'t catch it at first, but after further review, it is indeed Rene.
-
I recognized it right off the bat.
-
i didn\'t see it at first either...but yes....i\'m sad to say it is rene. which sucks cuz i was really starting to like him. anyone else pissed off about amy being gone? this was a bummer for me
-
Nah - she was starting to get annoying, but then again, Jason has been annoying since day one.
A couple points:
1. If it is Rene, there he may have some other purpose other than being a serial killer. All of the women he\'s supposedly offed have been women that have had relations or have been bitten by choice.
2. I\'m starting to get a little tired of Lafayette, I hope that he gets it for the death of the vamp that Amy killed.
3. Did anyone think that the lady that bailed Tara out looked a lot like the lady with the pig that caused her to go off the road?
-
Definitely the same lady

3. Did anyone think that the lady that bailed Tara out looked a lot like the lady with the pig that caused her to go off the road?
1. It is Rene. Not only has every murdered woman been associated with vampires, but they were all "close" to Jason Stackhouse in some way. Jason is very close to Rene, Rene knows who he\'s banging at all times, which ones are \'fang-bangers\', and basically where they\'ll be and when. His open support of vamps, ie him acting cool with Bill on numerous occasions, and Jason\'s dumb-ass being connected to every victim is his collective alibi for not being the murderer.
2. If Lafayette is offed, I may stop watching the show. He is by far the best character on the show. If anything, I hope he becomes a vampire to induce a twist on his bad-ass character. How is he more annoying compared to other characters on this show? Just wondering your reasons. I\'m a huge Lafayette fan. His scenes are fucking great.
3. That was certainly her.

She looked/sounded like the lady that made Bill

I\'m just not a fan of the character. His personality changes like the wind. In a matter of seconds he\'ll go from being a short order cook, to a drug dealer, to a male prostitute, to a gangbanger to a clean cut guy who looks like he should be working for the government. He\'s got too much going on for me to get into his character. Let\'s stick to one personality so that people can get to know what he about rather than changing it from scene to scene.

Not the same person. Mariana Kloveno plays "Lorena", the character that made Bill. Michelle Forbes plays Maryann, the woman that takes Tara in.

Dratz0rs.
I thought that would be cool.

i couldn\'t agree more....although he\'s probably my second favorite character next to eric

Agreed on all points.
Also, this show is doing exactly what HBO wants it to do; I am considering getting HBO after I move just to watch it.
-
well next week is the season finale, so you can hold off on getting hbo for a good while knowing how often their seasons come out.
-
Are you kidding me? It\'s been 11 episodes?

He\'s got too much going on for me to get into his character. Let\'s stick to one personality so that people can get to know what he about rather than changing it from scene to scene.
His employment changes from being taxed or untaxed, his personality however does not. His values and personality are CONSTANT in every \'physical\' form. The only reason he appeared clean cut and in "government-like" attire was to have a shot at pwning the hypocritical politician who partakes in all of the leisure activities he speaks out against, all facilitated by Lafayette\'s personal business endeavors. He is a true entrepeneur, that\'s why, in your point of view, he "changes like the wind." I\'ll still argue that he does not. You know which side of every debate Lafayette stands. He\'s the man.

Eric is definitely the shit. And how big is that mother fucker? He dwarfs everyone.
Are you kidding me? It\'s been 11 episodes?
Are you saying that\'s bullshit that the season is ending? I\'m not sure what you\'re questioning or pissed about.
So Eric is 6\'4" and has been voted sexiest man in Sweden 5 times. Wow. Oh and his mother\'s name is My.. My Skarsgard.
-
sweden huh? that\'s hilarious...i vote him sexiest man EVER on HBO. but his character on the show is perfect. love the dark sarcasm/i don\'t give a fuck mentality. he makes me feel pathetic for being human....and i like it!
-
One of my favorite scenes of the season involves Eric at Fangtasia when a woman asks if she can take his picture. He says yes, she does, and then Longshadow destroys the phone with which she took it. The woman looks befuddled and says, "I thought you said I could take your picture." Eric then replies, with his typical deadpan sarcastic superiority, "I said you take it; I did not say that you could keep it." Priceless.
-
lol....a great eric moment indeed....can\'t wait for sunday!
-
Are you kidding me? It\'s been 11 episodes?
it got off to a bit of a slow start, but i guess all shows do their first season.
Has anyone here read the books?
-
[SPOILER]a pretty good way to end a season. i will either torrent or watch the next ones...
the only thing i don\'t like is jason joining the anti-vampire bloc. i like his character too much (lovable loser) to see him do something that foolish.
[/SPOILER]
-

i\'ve heard the books are pretty interesting... they are mysteries right? prob gonna add these to the good ol\' christmas list.
-
I thought the ending was good.
[spoiler]Def don\'t like Jason in the anti-vampire church, esp with the whole Bill and Sookie thing. If Lafeyette is dead I\'m gonna be pissed, he\'s one of my favorite characters.[/spoiler]
I had actually started to read the first book, but couldn\'t get too far into it before getting sucked into a different book. I think the only reason it didn\'t pull me in though is cause I had already seen the show.
-
All that I can or will say is that I\'m pleased with the final scene and if they follow the books, then it is what it is. Was that cryptic enough or do I need to put a spoiler on it?
-
[SPOILER]When Sookie and Bill got back together at the 35 minute mark I thought "wow, i wonder if they will end early."
i find that new vamp girl very interesting. i wonder what she will turn out to be.[/SPOILER]
-
I can\'t stand that chick. She irritates the shit outta me. I want her to go away.
-
She not in the books, so for them to add her, her character will probably play out next season. My guess is that she will create a lot of tension between Bill and Sookie.
-
New season starts in June...
-
i\'m pretty sure this will be the highlight of my entire summer...lol....what a life :)
-
I guess i\'m getting HBO

So, the new vampire is not gone, there are some new ultra-light characters and suckey is surprised?
-
sookie sookie now!

Lafayette best still be involved, and I am surprised by Sookie\'s blonde top.... No good, imo.

did some V last night.
tripped balls.

Anyone know why last night was a repeat only 3 episodes into the season?

Not too bad since ep 4 was last night! I watched the second half of it, not bad. I wish it was on at 8:00 instead of 9:00. By that time on a sunday I\'m beat...
-
s2 e4 was the weakest i\'ve seen thus far
-
I don\'t know if I would call it weak...
- Jason moved up the chain
- The attack at the airport
- Lafayette/Eric (something will come of this)
- Tara\'s party
- Sam/Daphne revelations
- Sookie and the bellboy
It made not have been action packed, but a lot did happen...
-
true....
i think it\'s apparent that we\'re gonna see a jason/sookie or jason/bill showdown in the season finale.
-
Has anyone noticed how the Light people act, sound, and behave way too much like current evangelicals to me? While i know this is intentionally on the part of show (and in the books?), it would be nice if HBO made their subtle digs a little less obivious...
-
I loved the old school scene w/ Eric and Guidrich, that was classy. I hope they find him so he can fuck up some humans.

There is a war out there. The only way to win that war is to be overt.
-
[spoiler] if this is going to be another 12 episode season, things seem to be coming to a head a bit faster than the first one. Don\'t get me wrong, I love the new, faster pace, but it looks like there will be a conflict either next week or the week after...basically at the half-way point.[/spoiler]
-
I loved the old school scene w/ Eric and Guidrich, that was classy. I hope they find him so he can fuck up some humans.
Also dug the Bill Compton roaring 20\'s scene. still hoping Eric and Godric reunite in a fury of human killing. BTW we had a blood orgy and full on fuckfest this episode. I can\'t stroke to that shit though.
-

Me thinks that he is the vamp that the church has captured.
Also, me thinks there will be some serious violence coming up.
First season; slow, boring, mostly about hicks
second season; bloody...
-

what era/war do you think this was from? one of the coolest scenes of the series.

Vikings, dude.
Probably unification wars circa 980?
Or could just be generic viking radings...
-
It just dawned on me last night that Eric was Sgt. Colbert from Generation Kill also. That guy has been a star since joining the HBO fold.
-
Maryann needs to go, I\'m so bored with her, I don\'t care what she is, I don\'t care what she wants and why she obviously wants to kill Sam, just go away. They\'re wasting too much time on her that could be used on Eric. :)
-
yeah maryann does suck
-

yeah noticed that a while ago...he was also in zoolander haha

fyi; generation kill ubber alles

This show is so fucking good.
The Eric/Godrich flashback had to be around 1000--he says he is 1000 years old all the time.
People hate on the Mary Ann story, but it makes the show that much more entertaining. Every story line is thick & spicy.

The Compton 20\'s scene was the shit. Alan Ball pwn3s flashbacks. Hahahaa to the lack of bloody strokes.
-
I agree that the Maryann plot blows, but they have to do something to keep people interested in what\'s going on in LA while Sookie is in Dallas and Jason is off to psycho religion camp...
-
in the preview for next show, daphne says that MaryAnn is immortal... could lead to something very important confronting the super-powerful, though mortal/dead, vamps. MaryAnn also seems interested in Sookie.
-
Maryann is only interested in Sookie because she feels that she is a threat to her control over Tara...
-
Everyone is interested in sookie.
-
Everyone is interested in sookie.
myself included...
-
i\'m glad sookie shows the goods
-
i\'m glad sookie shows the goods
Yeah, but she\'s dumb as a fucking rock.
Okay, maybe not dumb; she\'s about as subtle as a hydrogen bomb.
-
So I was thinking about, the other day, how Arlene told Terry she had a surprise for him and they ended up at Maryann\'s shady ass sex party?
What\'s that about?
I guess maybe she had a different surprise in mind but still.
I want more Barry, damnit.

I was wondering the same thing.

I don\'t know about that. I feel like Tara might be the pawn for Maryann to get closer to Sookie. Everyone I talk to hates this storyline, but it\'s goddamn interesting to me. I have no idea how it\'s going to shape up.

Yeah, like why is Daphne on her side if Maryann is the one who scratched up her back? Maybe Maryann has a way of doing this without people knowing, like putting them in their funky huge pupil state.

Or maybe her being a shape-shifter saved her life without needing vamp blood to cure her. If Sookie survived the attack without drinking blood, she would\'ve still had scars on her back.
I think the "funky huge pupil state" is important. Nobody talks about shit the next day, and Eggs proved she erases minds when he found the spot 2 miles off the road. Weird though, her servant and Daphne were unaffected. I wonder why she chooses some people and not others, and I want to know what the fuck is up with Eggs being her roadie.

I don\'t think that state works on shifters; sam didn\'t go bug-eyed (but she can force a shift)

she definitely can push her powers onto people, like the bugeyed shit and when everyone was pissed at tara. i just think she\'s lame. she\'s some supposed demi-god and she just does cheap catty shit. step it up if you\'re so hardcore.
-
i\'m sure she\'ll be steppin\' it up soon igzy.... i agree though the storyline isn\'t bad or boring, its just stagnant. like i feel like we don\'t get any new information, just repeating evidence of what we\'ve already deduced. lets hurry it up here! only like 6 episodes left right?
I loved the old school scene w/ Eric and Guidrich, that was classy. I hope they find him so he can fuck up some humans.
that was a fantastic scene.... i hope guidrich is alive as well.... think he\'ll be in the church basement?
-
this is good already.
-
Last show was great. Wish I didn\'t watch previews afterwards... Feel like I already know too much.
-
glad to see Sam turning into something else besides a dog for once.
I hope to god that Jason is still alive, and can\'t wait for a good ol\' vampire bloodbath. the scene w/ Lafayette and Eggs was pretty funny. good to see lafayette back to his old self.
-
Another great episode.
Godrich is easily the coolest character on the show.
-
Got about 10 minutes into the episode just after Eric is walking up to the alter... I\'m going to try and catch the rest of the episode tonight...
-
is it just me or bills maker is 10000000 % emo-fucked-up-chick.
I bet she\'d cut if she could.
The greek-lady plot is getting old.
In the first season i found jason to be tiresome bordering on annoying, but i now like his "i have no idea what is going on but i\'ll have fun anyway" attitude.
-
I love Jason this season. I just want him to get laid more like last season.
Maryann bores me, Bill\'s maker is a psycho whack job who hopefully returns sooner than later, at least her meddling is enjoyable, where maryann just sucks.
i love eric\'s devotion to godric, dude is so badass, but does whatever G asks of him w/o question.
-
Loved Godric\'s comment about being older than Jesus and unfortunately (sarcastically) missing him when he was around.
Seems only a matter of time before Eric steals Sookie. Bill has been getting on my nerves anyways.
-
I am contemplating starting to read the books.
Not so much to see what happens, but because I can only take over-done southern accents for about 40minutes a week.
The 52 minute show is pushing it.

From what I understand, the books are somewhat different than the shows. And as an aside, (no offense is meant) I usually can\'t stand southern accents at all (even Virginian accents get me), but accents on this show don\'t bother me...

Moderate southern accents in girls are the hottest in the world.
Indian is second.
germanic third.

sookie = the last dragon.

I\'m really starting to dislike Sookie.
-
I hope Eggs kills himself. that dude sucks.
!yes!
-
well, don\'t have to worry about annoying ass eggs anymore.
-
I thought it was a great finale. Definitely better than the last two eppys. Glad they didn\'t spend the whole hour leading up to Mary Ann\'s death (which was fucking dope!), and the season ending cliff hanger was really well done. Excited for what comes next.

I thought Bill loved night-skiing.
Also, what airport is in vermount?

If not for Anna Paquin\'s hotness/nakedness, I don\'t think I\'d be watching this show anymore.
It has it\'s moments, I am curious as to what the hell Sookie\'s deal is, what is she? But mostly I think I lost interest.

Her acting sucks.
That or the character does.

Her acting does suck. So does the character. The character in the books is a lot better, I actually like her. :)
-
It seems like she is trying too hard. I am not convinced that I am
a.) not watching anna paquin read lines
b.) sookie stackhouse being overly dramatic in everything.
the only character trait that i can detect in her in stuborness.
I kind of perfer Jasons character.
Maybe because I don\'t know the actor.
-
sookie = the last dragon.
Great reference:thumbsup: She does possess the power of the glow!
It was fucking great that Jason shot eggs. It did however leave me wondering if Tara is over all of this satanic shit. She seems like a crazy enough bitch to convince herself that she is immortal. Or maybe she will just kill herself.
-
yeah season 2 wasn\'t as good as season 1. i think this show has lost its edge.
-
After watching two seasons of True Blood, I have come to one unmistakable conclusion: it is not a good show.
-
The show is definitely up & down. There was a stretch of some great episodes this season, but I got a bit worn out by the end. The last episode was better than I was expecting it to be though.
Lafayette is by far the best actor on the show. Jason is fucking hilarious, and I\'ve become a Detective Belfleur fan for sure. Sookie and Tara both get on my nerves now. Even Bill a lot of the time. Use contractions brah!
I still like the show though. It\'s pretty goddamn entertaining.
Hey dannytriscuits, I have Shotime on demand now, and have watched the first 6 episodes of Dexter. Now THAT is a fucking show. Good call brew. Never had the opportunity until now and I\'m lucky to have all three seasons at my tips. Not to mention ****s which is a bad ass show too.
My life currently consists of work, school, food, cigarettes, beer, on demand, free downloads, and sex. I\'m enjoying it.
-
^haha perfect life gordo
whoever was talking about breaking bad before, i took your advice and watched it.
i am 3 ep\'s into season 2 now and completely addicted. sick show.
-
Breaking Bad may have been me. I love that show easily one of the best on TV.
I\'ll take Dexter over True Blood any day of the week. Dexter is a great show, can\'t wait for season 4. If not for the lull of summer programing I don\'t think I\'d be watching True Blood.
-
Yeah I\'ve heard Breaking Bad is top notch. It\'s on a weird channel though right, which iiiissss........
???????
-
Hell ya cheescake. I wish I could go back to season one and pop my Dexter cherry all over again. After the first season I had no idea where it was going to go or if it would be able to keep up the amazingness but it has never let down. I just finished the third season and they are still bringing the fire. You have until the 24th-ish to get all caught up before season 4. Yayzees :banapple:
The channel for breaking bad i believe is fx
I lied one look at the google machine told me it was amc
-
Breaking Bad is on AMC, same channel as Mad Men, which although I don\'t watch I have heard nothing but amazing things about. Plenty of time to catch up on seasons 1 & 2. They run 12 or 13 episode seasons in early summer. So it won\'t be back till April or May, but it\'s def worth watching.
oh and btw: Dexter starts on the 27th

Hmmm and you started the thread.
Great job.

Actually, when I started that thread Leith, I think you were still on your six-month hiatus, or as most Breakfast fans refer to it: the good ol\' days.

rotfl
I sincerely missed leith. Although it feels like you\'re on a self-induced hiatus ofTen these days. You should rail people more often, not like, in the butt, but on the board. To me, those were the good ol\' days.
-
Well, it sure didn\'t feel like I was on hiatus when I was spending an hour piecing through the Beatles A-Z setlists, but nevertheless, I appreciate your appreciation of my insults. I learned from the best.
-
Shit, I was actually talking to leith in that whole post. I laughed at your comment, then addressed my love for leith. Sorry brew.
-
Very pleased with True Blood\'s season 3 opener.
-
Haven\'t watched all of it yet, just got to where Eric is yelling into the earpiece...
-
Me too.
