There's a new Vampire in town...
Remember how obsessed I was with my vampire crime show "Moonlight"? Well CBS decided to cancel it because it didn't have enough viewers. My new vampire show doesn't have that problem.... and guess what?
IT'S NOT ON NETWORK TV.... IT'S ON CABLE!!
This is Bill Compton, or Vampire Bill as he is known to the citizens of Bon Temp, Louisianna in the HBO Series "True Blood".
This is a show based on The Southern Vampire Series of novels by Charlaine Harris. True Blood has everything that Moonlight had and more.... much, much more!
If you like murder mysteries, sex, violence, romance, sex, scandal, gossipy small town neighbors, sex and more sex than this is the show for you!
The woman being woooed by Vampire Bill in the photo above is Sookie Stackhouse, a waitress with the ability to read minds. Vampires have come out of the coffin and are recognized as a legitimate section of society but not everyone accepts them, much the same way not everyone accepts homosexuals or minorities living among them. Living in a small town has it's disadvantages on it's own, but can you imagine being different while trying to be normal in a small town? Not an easy task but Sookie does her best. Needless to say she's not very popular when she befriends, and then begins to date, Vampire Bill.
True Blood is filled with great characters, some you'll connect with and maybe some that will remind you of people you know. Others are more mysterious and you just have to stay tuned to find out what's going on with them. The romance between Bill and Sookie is sweet and old-fashioned and might be more than a little dangerous.
Oh, and HBO has decided, after the second episode aired, to renew True Blood for a second season! See people, this is why I only watch Cable TV now. It may be expensive but it's so much more worth it when you find a show to invest in.
