good back-story, and good acting

A Disappointing Continuation

it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.

Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction

I was seduced by season 1, mainly by the generic that I found a bit dark, reflecting perfectly the ambiance of this series set in the remote Louisiana. As a former fan of Buffy The Vampire Slayer and Six Feet Under, I was delighted to find a show that was mixing sci-fi and dark humor. However, I found many scenes a bit provocative and not bringing much to the scenario. No show being perfect, I tried to watch season 2 but I only found scenes trying to be provocative and not particularly imaginative. I must say this has been a great disappointment as I did enjoy the previoius works of Alan Ball that were spotting the dark side of humanity but in a sensitive and beautiful way that I didn´t find here. Suffice to say that I did not watch beyond season 2.

True blood is the best TV show i have ever watched and trust me i have watched a lot of TV shows. i have never seen a TV show like this one the story line is great the actors are perfect and i can truthfully say i don't think i will ever see a better show.True blood is about vampire's which have made themselves public to the world or "come out of the coffin" as they say and are living in peace with the rest of the world because of a new synthetic blood called tru blood which they can now live on, which is a story unlike anything else i have seen. The plot is based around sookie stackhouse (Anna Paquin) who is a telepath and waitress at a roadhouse restaurant in Louisiana who meets a vampire bill Compton (Stephen Moyer) for the first time and become attracted to him because unlike over people she can not read his mind. There is many great characters in this show with all different personalities some who don't agree with vampire human relationships like Jason stackhouse (Ryan Kwanten) a lady's man but also sookie's brother who thinks vampires a dangerous. Sam merlotte (Sam Trammell) who just wants the best for sookie but is also in love with her. There is also other characters like Eric Northman ( Alexander Skarsgård) who does not come into the show until ep 4 but makes the whole show even better which who knew was possible. True blood has everything you want in a show it has action, romance. gore and everything in between. This show is so good that every other show that i have rated 10 stars i now realize did not deserve it

This show is a sheer joy to watch. It's the humour that is one of the best things about it, and hardly anyone talks about it. The juxtaposition of horror ( vampires graphically eating humans ) with the off beat, and truly hilarious humour is blended perfectly in this show, in a way that Buffy tried to do, but nowhere near as good. Every episode has moments that make me stop and laugh out loud. The wonderful southern accents and quirky southern country mannerisms have much to do with the charm and humour I think. The actors are all brilliant, and the casting was inspired. I can't praise the writers, directors and actors enough for making True Blood one of the best television experiences ever. THANKS !

Wow, this was horrible. It was so absolutely riddled with PC mantra nonsense there wasn't any room for actual content. This godawful show might as well have starred PC Principal.Moreover, the Southern stereotypes and accents were off the charts ridiculous. Man, to rail against bigotry while demonstrating your anti- Southern bigotry. Hypocrisy at its finest.What's even more, no one acts like these characters. I felt like I was watching an R rated version of Dawson's Creek. Is this what passes for an HBO series these days? Seriously?More importantly, though, the acting, dialogue, and scripting are absolutely atrocious. But you probably knew that if you sat through an hour or two of this garbage, so I won't waste my time.I just absolutely was not impressed. Fargo is 10x better. Watch that.
