True Blood

[unitedwestand]

It's one of the best tv series HBO has done in a while.
Agree?

[KungFuJoe]

It's one of the few shows I've gotten into over the past couple of years. I enjoy it bunches.

Suprised it's taken this long for someone to start a thread about it.

[allyjoy]

I will reserve my judgment for the end of the season, but can we all agree Anna Paquin can't act?

[unitedwestand]

Yeah hopefully It'll stay around for a while! the characters are great!

[wmgaretjax]

I'm gonna check this out.

She has her moments. I think she can act fine & she fills her role well. There are definately others that outshine her in the show, but I actually think everyone in the show does a pretty good job. They've built a fun community of characters. Tara & Lafayette are my favorites.

Isn't part of the show that it's supposed to be camp and the acting is supposed to be bad? I mean, thematically vampires + sex + white trash south sort of automatically adds up to camp.

That's the way I've always taken it. That's why I love it. It constantly pokes fun of itself yet manages to remain very engaging.

anna paquin boobs + vampires + werewolves = good show

Did you not see the last episode with that hippy/ new age chick? Hippy girl bewbs > anna paquin bewbs

[garrett222]

i did...and i agree hers were better on their own merit. BUT....famous boobs > unfamous boobs. Agree?

[Jerm05]

I love this show. never occurred to me to start a thread about it, probly because i'd get owned too much in a thread i start myself..

btw, that was lizzy caplan from mean girls and cloverfield and those were epic titties

I agree...love this show.

[BlueDevil50]

quality show...sundays are by far the best day for tv with dexter, entourage, and true blood. but yes, awesome show!

...i don't want no aids burger lol

[Pixiessp]

I have definitely got to start to watching it again.

[Lurker_in_a_tree]

Entourage had the potential to turn into something good this season. It would have been a better show to see "Vince" struggle. Instead, he's a complete asshole, turning down million dollar modeling jobs. I have no sympathy for this idiot.
And now the show is back to supermodels with their own private jets.
Crash and burn, Entourage.

[Jerm05]

agreed, the end of this past Entourage episode sets up for a huge change, which i hope happens as the show's dynamic has stayed the same since its beginning. kinda sucks

I personally like the supermodel plot lines...but what I am pissed about is his reaction to ari's promotion. he was selfish and only thought about how it impacted him. Geez..the first thing on Ari's mind at all times what what his new job could do for vince..very lame on vince's part.

I finally saw an episode of this (I believe it was the last new one). It's not bad, but its not great. It's really kinda silly and thats where the entertainment comes from. I wanna try some vampire blood so badly and please tell me you guys laugh everytime "Bill the Vampire" calls out to SOOKE.

"i am not human, SOOKE!"

What really makes my brain itch is the fact that Alan Ball created this. How did he go from 6 Feet Under to a soap opera with vampires (thats exactly what it is, a soap opera)

[suprefan]

i did...and i agree hers were better on their own merit. BUT....famous boobs > unfamous boobs. Agree?

No, cause you could at least have a shot getting those unfamous boobs.. Best thing is she is a recurring character.

[wmgaretjax]

Six Feet Under was a soap opera... A damn good one, but that's what it was.

[sbessiso]

I guesssss but you know what I'm trying to say.

[wmgaretjax]

I do... How'd he go from doing something really raw and loaded, to something incredibly corny...

I enjoyed the first few episodes. It's fun.

[garrett222]

No, cause you could at least have a shot getting those unfamous boobs.. Best thing is she is a recurring character.

point taken.

Why not have pics of hot girls in the street scene thread instead of scarjo?

[sbessiso]

I expected it to be a vampire show but done the way 6 feet under was. dark, funny, subtle, in your face, ironic, symbolic etc.

once you get passed all that though, like you said, it IS fun, and omg SOOKE. we just kept saying her name overandoveragain, SOOKE

I liked that black girl and her bother, their mom is one crazy bitch. I wish I still had HBO so I can keep up with the show although realistically I dont see it lasting

[C DUB YA]

Did you not see the last episode with that hippy/ new age chick? Hippy girl bewbs > anna paquin bewbs

Yeah that's the girl from Cloverfield (Lizzy Caplan) - I heart her very much - her and her bewbs.



I kinda dig this show. Very campy, my wife says the books are pretty good too (Charlene Harris) and the show doesn't change too much to make anything a distraction from the the basic plotline.

In fact HBO on Sunday is pretty fun:

True Blood
Entourage
Little Britain
Tim
Real Time w Bill Maher (encore)

[sbessiso]

She'll always be the dyke from "Mean Girls" to me

[C DUB YA]

Also True Blood has some of the best title design ever... (along with Dexter)

See for yourself.



here's the Dexter one - which by the way is done by the same designers.

[karecares]

i actually run around singing i want to do bad things with you.. too bad i can't sing to save my life

salah i suggest starting from the first episode before blowing it off.
yes it's soapy but i can see a lot of future potential (i havent read the books) on where this can go. Tara does a great ACOA & Lafayette is one of the funniest characters in the show..... pulls its hot

can we agree that Sookie is an annoying name however fitting it may be
