Mind you, a lot of the forums are saying it's too girly and that it needs more violence because they're vampires - there's that trend now of making them just a kinky fantasy for women. When actually they're meant to be scary LOL. I find a lot of guys saying that at least. Someone told me they've made Sookie half fairy (which is just ab ridiculous) I was like what?!? BTW - have you guys seen the cover of Rolling Stones this month? Blood never looked so sexy LOL.

Now I think being half fairy is pretty cool. Though, I come from a Celtic background that embraces the philosophy that the Fey were pretty powerful in their own right (not the cute little Tinkerbells). Though, they sure make the fey on True Blood look like cute little Tinkerbells LOL.
True Fey folk could be extremely frightening and deadly - and there were even some who would DRAIN men of their blood!

See Deanna, now that would have been a cool thing to use on True Blood I think. It would've gone with the story too

Absolutely Steven! They'd be a perfect counterpart to the vampires LOL!!
They can even glamour like a vampire does!

Remember that True Blood is based on the book series so the twists are probably trying to follow the books. I'm waiting to read the books until the TV series ends, so I don't get myself too biased one way or the other. I like to enjoy each one for what it offers.

I didn't realize this was a book based series. Are the books also called True Blood? Maybe i should read those and not worry about whether the TV series is too violent.

Hey Jilly, They are known as the Sookie Stackhouse novels by Charlaine Harris. My mom gave me hers... I'll probably start reading them pretty soon.

Yeah, I want to start reading the books - I have one of them - but I want to start from the start. The covers have all the cast members on them now too so they're easy to find in the bookshop. Since it's Halloween I just watched 'The Others' - I love that movie though and its better when you know what's really going on in some ways. I went out last night as the devil, but I couldn't hold my booze like him - so I was also up all night LOL. T.M.I

I finally saw the episode about four weeks ago - which will tell you how far behind we are over here in the UK with True Blood. I thought that it was actually kinda funny LOL - just because the effects were so naff.
I hate that woman anyway, she's tried to have Sookie killed and she's basically treating Bill the way a lot of men in power treat women, it's a bit of gender switching going on. I know he did it to hurt her, but she did say it was the best sex they ever had LOL - maybe that kinda thing turns sadistic vamps on.
I'm liking the werewolves in it. Funny, the one scene in which I personally didn't like the vviolence was when the three vampires were feeding on that poor pole dancer, and she was really sweet. Also, poor Tara - I so relate to her - she's a constant victim, love 'er. That British vamp is a right psycho isn't he?
