So did anyone else catch the premiere on HBO / TMN this past sunday for True Blood? Im definitely looking forward to more. I dont think they nailed it with the pilot, but i definitely see potential for this universe they've created. I do think the dude playing the vampire love interest for Sookie was pretty weak. Thankfully they fixed one major casting blunder with replacing Brook Kerr (yes, Whitney from Passions) as Tara for the series. I downloaded the leaked pilot she was featured in, boy did she suck. |

I love the premise, but the show was way too cheesy for me..and since i don't have HBO, I won't be watching..If I hear it gets better, i'll possibly check it out on DVD.. |

I thought the trailer looked bad, and I was so disappointed. I love me some Alan Ball! I still want to watch it though. |

She was so out of her league. Watching her pilot, and watching the finished pilot proved it. It was like bland and stiff Whitney Russell, only dropping F bombs.

I kinda want to watch it now just for the sake of hearing Brook Kerr say "Fuck", LoL. |

I wish I had HBO at home because I saw a commercial for it on HBO at my Aunts house and wanted to check it out. |

Yay, Sookie's not been turned into a vampire. And Tara is fast becoming my favourite character, i'm so thankfull for Brook Kerr being replaced. Rutina Wesley is awesome. |

^^ITA Tara is great and I just can't imagine Brooke Kerr playing her at all! Tonight's eppy was much more solid than the pilot, IMO and next week's looks to continue that trend. |

I started watching the first episode online, but stopped after about ten minutes (well, okay, for some reason, the vid cut out on me after ten minutes). Anyway, I wasn't impressed. I love Alan Ball's work so I was disappointed. The Tara character was hilarious though! |

It took me a while to find this thread, but i wanted to bump it up for Season 2...Last night was the premiere and i thought it was great..Having read the books, I'm shocked that Lafayette is alive..But I love how twisted his kidnapping is...Also Sookie and Bill are hot, but I hope we get to see more of Eric and Sookie this year...Anyone else watching this great show? |
