First Footage From The Final Season Of TRUE BLOOD

Don't be so cynical MrCBM, haha...I've actually watched this show since S1, stupid, vamp soap opera, but I like it!

Plus, lovin' me some hot ginger...

^^ Clearly never actually watched True Blood.

Haha yeah. Just being a smart-ass.

yh. twilight ruined vampires for everyone. vampires have been sterotyped into sparkly things that lurk around school corridors for loner girls.

but true blood is better than that. not great, but still better then that.

A human woman in love with a vampire? Must be a Twilight rip-off!!!
Im not going to lie and say there arent moments....but no its really isnt.

Ive only seen the first 2 seasons since only very recently I am getting into the show.
I hear it gets terrible and intraduces crazy stuff like faries and Fairy World. Theres a part of me that actually cant wait to see the show go off the rails and go all wacky. :)

Haha thanks, but I actually have seen the show. It's a piece of shit.

I even know some people that watch it regularly too, and they're some of the dumbest women that I have ever associated with. I don't know any men that watch it.

@gamera when the first movie and first season debut within 2 months of each other, right when the book's popularity is massive, then yeah, somebody probably borrowed an idea or 2.

The show started off great, but now it's gotten silly. I only watch it because of Deborah Ann Woll.

You trickster nibs ;)

You may hate the show, but it's nothing like Twilight...fact. I actually went off it big time, but again, not because it's ANYTHING like Twilight. If you're gonna dislike it at least do it the courtesy of having a better reason.

I actually dislike it because the few episodes of the first season I saw were about a corny love story between a sexy-but-doesn't-fit-in-small-town girl and a gritty-tough-guy-but-still-sexy vampire, which is dumb as f. If a show revolves around a love story - big budget fantasy or not - it can lick my taint.

It doesn't matter if it is a twilight rip-off (which it most definitely is), it's just that it is a stupid plot in general with a sexy twist like most network bullshit. I have attempted to watch both this and twilight and hate them each independently.

But to say the idea for this show didn't come from twilight is hilarious. Go-bots isn't EXACTLY the same as transformers either, but you damn well know where their ideas came from.

Watched the first few seasons. Then it went off the deep end, had to stop watching.

I think the biggest issue was trying to really push the vampire "Authority", which never appeared in the books. Not because it never appeared in the books, but because of how caught up the vampires are in something that's just pointless plot exposition.
Russell BARELY appeared, and wasn't a crazed maniac (although admittedly, he was my favorite "villain of the season"), just the owner of the estate Lorena was using to hold Bill at. He feels indebted to Sookie after she was literally staked in place of him at "Club Dead".

Season three decided they needed to pull a SH*T LOAD of plot elements from later books and deliver some whammy lines in order to make the show interesting. They kept Sookie rescinding Bill and Eric's invitation to her house and their break-up, but it was due entirely to her being fed on and raped by Bill after he was drained and feral. Eric was just, there. It's not until the sixth book that Eric makes Bill tell her that he was ordered by the Queen to spy on and seduce her, and it's not until the eighth book that Sookie learns (and Bill didn't know) that she's part fairy.

I honestly think the show should have ended there, with Sookie in the cemetery, but it had grown too popular. Season five made ONE reference to the fifth book, which was with the hate group shooting shifters - which was what the "villain of the book" would have been doing had he appeared. The sixth season has ZERO connection at all, to ANY of the books.

It really has become a mess of a show that they can't get a hold of. Sookie is everyone's LEAST favorite character, and Bill and Eric have pretty much merged into Bill while Eric (post-season four) is basically an original character. It's a true example of character-driven drama gone wrong.

also, it's sad to see how paquin can easily pull off that 'southern belle' thing with sookie and never got a chance to do it with rogue

@Nibs


Yes you dipwit



Anyways id love if that ginger was maryjane

Well considering how Dracula is roughly 50% Mina's perspective, and eventually becomes a narrative where she falls in love with the titular vampire, I'd say any romance involving a vampire must be just like Dracula.

The show REALLY got away from the tone of the books though, DRASTICALLY. Considering everything from the books is told from Sookie's narrative, we kind of get more information in the show than we need.

But yeah, Dead Until Dark (True Blood) came out in 2001. Twilight came out in 2005.

LOL @gusto. I really need to just embrace the gusto-philosophy.
