True Blood

True Blood is an extremely entertaining supernatural thriller that has a little of everything. It has comedy, action, drama, love, sex, etc., etc. It really is a classic! It's the best of the vampire genre and has more shocking, intense and exciting moments in one season than most shows have in their entire run. It takes the vampire genre into a totally new and fresh direction. It's just a flat out fun show that will take you into it's world and keep you entertained throughout the entire series. It knows what kind of show it is and doesn't try to be anything it's not. Some seasons toward the end weren't quite as good but still worth watching and really entertaining!

I write this review as a "want to be writer". Not someone with any real skill or credibility. However when you want to become a writer as a youth it is usually driven from the art of actually writing. Dialogue, action and character development. This show is very well written, Alan ball clearly is gifted. Not just skill but talent. I think this show was only good for 5 seasons and they should have left it at that. Shows make the mistake of going on, not just because they can. Because the audience ask for it, I remember Vince Gilligan saying he could have had more seasons of breaking bad, but chose not to. I didn't understand at the time but I do now. This show is not meant to go on and on, it's a story. It was meant to end at the right time. This could easily have gotten 10 stars from me if they made this show 5 seaons.

I loved this show when it first came out. I stuck with it for a while. I didn't like it got pretty weird and dragged on towards the later seasons.

Characters of this show was so brilliant that you got attached to every single one. Show theme is on vampire protege but it looks very raw and makes interesting to watch. Yeah lot of adult scenes and blood sequences are there but if you didn't add those scenes then the show won't look promising.

Sookie & Bill chemistry are just amazing to watch even the show will keep you thrill in each and every epsiode goes on. If you love blood splits vampire type of stories then this show will not disappoint you. Go for it.....

Another interesting, entertaining, and slightly on the odd side series from HBO that should have more than enough sex and blood for those more discerning fans of our mythical long toothed friends, the vampires.

On the other hand, some may find it little more than an "R" rated soap opera with teeth.

I'm more forgiving. I liked the first episode, thought it had a fairly strong cast, and the story held my interest, even though some of the southern accents sounded a bit strange. Still, having a lead character who is wound a little too tight, there's a reason for that, is a fresh enough idea and Anna Paquin, as Sookie Stackhouse...you heard that right, is well cast.

I'm looking forward to the next episode. Maybe this new show will reach right out and bite you.
