Title: True Blood
Post by: peyoteclock on September 09, 2008, 11:14:52 AM
true blood is a great new hbo series about, you guessed it, vampires! the basic premise of the show is a japanese company has perfected synthetic blood and is marketing it as tru-blood. with no need to feed off humans anymore the vampires decide to out themselves and attempt to gain some basic civil rights. it's very southern gothic so instead of being racist to black people the south is now racist against vampires.

it's an excellent show that is very dark, funny and violent at times. also did i mention it's hbo so there is no lack of colourful language, gratuitous nudity and or graphic violence. check this shit out i'm hooked.

I got confused in a long time if TruBlood was a new energy drink or a series, it kinda went clear last week.
 
I want to check this out, hopefully will be here soon.

The series sounds pretty innovative, but if this is true it's going to be cliche as hell.

it's handled pretty tastefully and isn't really cliched redneck ¥¥¥¥¥¥ lynching kind of shit, it's very subtle, and the basic premise is vampires are tax paying citizens who demand civil rights. here's the trailer for those interested.

It's a HBO original series right? I'm liking most of those I've seen, so I may have to give this a shot.

Clairvoyant is also the correct term, right?

Firefox accepts it as a real word.

this show is good, not as good as other hbo shows, like the wire, which is the best show of all time.

still it's mad decent, episode 3 aired the other night, i won't drop any spoilers but someone is probably a werewolf.

also sookie's run in with the nest vamps turned out neat and they introduced a vampire specific disease, also plenty of tis, ass, etc.

this show is mad hot.

Just saw episode three.


I like it but the whole vampire thing is getting more and more dumb. It's getting to the really really annoying teenage fanfiction stage of "OH MYYY GOD I AM THE VAMPIR U HOOMANS R SO WEEK U CANNOT KNOW THE EXNT OF MI POWER




HUMANS ARE THE VILS ONES!"

What's that new chick suppose to be, the one that went all hummingbird when banging a 17 year old. A siren or maenad or something? Probably something Greek.

Also Eric is a fucking badass, i wish they casted him as Thor instead of Captain Kirk's dad.

Maybe the chick is Circe, the goddess who changed Odysseus men into boars, you know Odysseus, he played Boromir in Lord of the Rings.

Anyway, she trows some rad parties that's for sure.

i don't care much for the whole meanad/black chick/shapeshifting bar owner story line. But i do like the vampire stuff, specially the Eric. Also the church is kinda neat cause it's so incredibly lame.

Can someone review the series so far?
I love vampire stuff and gothic/emo style when it comes to porn.

Gotta know if it's worth investing time in or not, series nowdays always require dedication at levels equall to a religious fundamentalist :(

It's a same Godric died, it was neat having a 2000 + year old vampire around. Specially when he said: "I'm actually older than your Jesus"

A well, pretty sure Eric is like a 1000 as well. Didn't really get what happened to the cowboy vampire guy, did he die in the explosion or something?
