Default True Blood? (HBO Series)


HBO's answer to Dexter?

Quote:
Based on the popular 'Southern Vampire,' book series by
Charlaine Harris, "True Blood" follows the adventures of a
small-town cocktail waitress Sookie Stackhouse (who all
her life was an outsider due to her gift/curse of being a
telepath) and how her life is turned upside down when a
member of the undead (the vampire race 'came out of the
coffin' several years earlier) walks into her life one
fateful night.
Pilot Episode

Looks more like a cheap knockoff of the Necroscope books tbh, albeit twisted and watered down...

I haven't watched Dexter yet, but I've been downloading it and plan to check out the first season at least when I get time.

I'll nibble, this can go on my dvr for an episode or two. I was big into necroscope, anne rice's sexually ambiguous vampires, salems lot all one year in my teens, not to mention "of saints and shadows" that one was nifty... Jesus as a vampire... Buffalo Bill too!

I'm actually re-reading the Vampire Chronicles for the umpteenth time. Her environmental descriptions and character developments are superior to many other authors. I'll probably give this show a quick glance, see how well they develop them.

Tru Blood

Orignial advertising campaign at least. Ive been pretty disapointed with HBO latley, but Ill deffinitly give this a shot. I would much rather be watching John from Cincinnati, Rome, or Deadwood though.
