By MrsB108(noreply@blogger.com) If you’re one of the (many) True Blood viewers who suspected there might be fallout from Bill “donating” blood to save Sam’s life in the finale last September, go ahead and give yourself a gold star. The show’s boss, Alan Ball, tells me that in season 3, the hunks will forge “not just any conne...

By marta@martaacosta.com (Marta) I got an email from a young video maker, Ryan Turner, who told me about his "Twilight"/"True Blood" video spoofing the shows. My favorite part is the "True Blood" theme song riff. So for your viewing pleasure, here's Ryan's video, "Vampire Anachronism." Thanks for sharing, Ryan!

By marta@martaacosta.com (Marta) Kate Beckinsale as Selene in "Underworld" was number four, I think, and Wesley Snipes in "Blade" was number three or something. Alexander Skarsgard as Eric Northman in "True Blood" was number two, and Robert Pattinson as Edward Cullen in "Twilight" was number one.

By dennis There's been a lot of discussion around here of whether or not True Blood has been de-gayed this year. I don't have a strong opinion on that one way or the other, but one thing I have noticed: As the show moves beyond the source material from the Charlaine Harris novels on which it is based, Alan...

By snicks He started with the show's fierce gay twosome Lafayette and Pam, and this week moved on to supercouple Bill and Sookie. He'll release two more characters after each week's episode, so hopefully we'll see Eric, Hoyt, Tara, Maryann, Sam and Jason before the season ends.

By marta@martaacosta.com (Marta) Read a review of HBO's new season of "True Blood." "One of the many excellent things about True Blood this season is the way it finds new uses for old characters. Last season, for instance, Andy was just another good/bad ol’ boy police officer, but now he’s like the official Bon Temps Voice of R...

By Jennifer Thomas Lafayette: (on Eric) "Somebody need to slap that b&$#!." Sookie: "I did." So Lafayette is also having dreams about Eric and Eric can fly. Good times. Sookie, unfortunately, hasn't used her sparkly new power again. Season finale: "Beyond Here Lies Nothin'"

By Meredith Woerner The Pros And Cons Of Last Night's True Blood Pro: Sookie getting "This is Dallas, baby"-ied. Wake up, lady — you can't just run around screaming "Mind reader!" Con: Sookie, if you want to be called a woman, you need to start acting like an adult.

By marta@martaacosta.com (Marta) If they had a clue what drives viewers to the show, they'd have websites dedicated to Alexander Skarsgard as Eric Northman and they'd pay tribute to wonderful Charlaine Harris, who inspired legions of devoted fans.

By Peter Hall I don’t think that TRUE BLOOD is a better show than BUFFY – I’ve yet to put on random episodes of TRUE BLOOD to cheer myself up, after all – but to pretend that the latter is the only game in town (particularly years after its broadcast store front was shuttered) reeks of nothing more than pledg...

Based on the series of Sookie Stackhouse books by Charlaine Harris, the conceit is that vampires are people, too, who live in the open with others, thanks to synthetic blood. That's intriguing to some but abhorrent to others, which leads to a new strain of religious warfare, which Sookie'...

By Jennifer Thomas Sookie, Bill and Jason return to a Bon Temps turned upside down by Maryann. Lured to Merlotteʼs by Arlene (Carrie Preston), Sam and Andy find cold comfort in their techniques donʼt work on Maryann; Hoyt and Jessica try to keep a lid on Maxineʼs

By Kian Yamaguchi So for Christmas I lucked out and received three new books, which for me is like, the best present. (ok clothes, jewels and money are always appreciated). The first two books are the first two in the "Sookie Stackhouse" series, (by Charlaine Harris) upon which the HBO series "True Blood" are...

By address-withheld@my.opera.com.invalid (Georgius the Peasant) What is True Blood? Well, it's Alan Ball (Six Feet Under, which I've not seen) and HBO's attempt at a fantasy-show, more specifically a vampire-show, based on a series of books by Charlaine Harris. It is also, I believe at least to some extent, one of their more successful efforts of getting...

By Meredith Woerner Pro: The vampire politico side-plot not only allowed us to see Lafayette all clean-cut, looking hard core angry and vengeful in a suit, but I'm very interested in the anti-vampire league. I've been hoping that Ball would bring in the rest of the world a bit more, and hopefully this is the win...

By Jennifer Thomas Sookie's (Anna Paquin) superpower isn't the ability to read minds, it's the ability to be mad at the wrong person at the wrong time. She's surly to Sam (Sam Trammell) when he likes her, but all snuggly once she finds out he's been with Tara (Rutina Wesley). A few episodes back, she blew up at Tar...

Finding the killer’s identity involves Sam, Sookie, and their romantic baggage traveling to another town, where Sookie’s telepathic flashes hold the key to the mystery. And here we circle right on back to where we started: Sam having eyes for Sookie, Sookie devoted to Bill (to a point), a...

By Jennifer Thomas Sookie: "I used to scratch your belly in the parking lot at the bar." Eric and Bill are surprised to find out how Jessica turns out. Sookie turns to Sam for comfort -- and a little smooching. When Tara lands in jail, Maryann (the woman on the road) turns up to help.

By Jennifer Thomas It's been clear for a long time that the people of Bon Temps can be a nasty, and often randy, bunch, but when Sookie can't tune them out, she finds out they're also blaming her for Adele's death. Sookie definitely was the murderer's intended target. Watching Tara and Lafayette turn on the "cir...

By Jennifer Thomas Still, I felt a little sorry for Sam (Sam Trammell) when Sookie rubs her relationship with Bill (Stephen Moyer) in his face. Although calling her out in front of everyone at Merlotte's wasn't exactly fair. Episode 8, "The Fourth Man in the Fire" Sookie and Tara have a blowout.

By snicks Sam Trammell, Anna Paquin Rutina Wesley, Nelsan Ellis, Anna Paquin Tara and Lafayette take her upstairs, and they have a great scene together, as they convince her to forget about the circling buzzards downstairs. Lafayette gives her a valium "just in case", and Sookie tells Tara that sh...

By snicks Ryan Kwanten Lafayette tells Jason that what he needs is a little hair of the vampire that bit him, and if he does V blood the right way, it can open up wonders he never thought possible (he also lets it slip that Tara has had the the hots for him for years). Rutina Wesley

By Daniel(noreply@blogger.com) Just as I never would stop watching "Entourage," it's hard for me to protest that I'm sick of the sex lives of vampires when entirely too much of my summer reading time was dedicated to four books of the "Twilight" series and the first part of Charlaine Harris' Southern Vampire Mysteries, w...

If I'm HBO, I'm worried. Much hyped "True Blood" pretty much tanked Sunday night - too early for me to think of any lame metaphors about vampires and blood and the dismal ratings state of this new-comer (so the headline will have to do.) It was seen by only 1.4 million subs on Sunday, and while - I k...
