True Blood is Back

The much anticipated return of HBO’s series based on the Sookie Stackhouse novels by Charlaine Harris, “True Blood” debuted its second season starter tonight, and it did not disappoint. When it began last year the flurry of excitement was brought on not just by those who knew the books, but also by HBO’s brilliant viral promotion “Blood Copy.” This time, the excitement is brought on by the pure quality of the first season.

Cliffhangers are tied up immediately, or at least the one that kept most of us losing our minds – that wasn’t Lafayette in the back of the Sheriff’s car. For the rest I’ll leave you guessing, or at least those of you who haven’t seen it yet. And for those of you who haven’t even seen “True Blood” yet – what are you waiting for? Fans of contemporary vampires this is for you, and also fans of the old school – like “Dark Shadows,” this is right up your alley. The first season is on DVD, get on the ball!

True Blood Is Coming

It’s true. The vampires are out of the closet, in more ways than one, and they’re coming to HBO – in "True Blood."



After a blood substitute has been manufactured and distributed, vampires, no longer having to feed on humans, reveal themselves to the world. It turns out they are everywhere and now want to assimilate into society.

"True Blood," the new series from HBO is the work of mastermind Alan Ball of "Six Foot Under" and based on the wonderful Southern Vampire Mysteries books by Charlaine Harris. If that’s not enough to bring you on board, it stars the lovely and talented Anna Paquin. The series debuts on HBO in September.
