 Has anyone seen the new series "True Blood" on HBO? An HBO representative was at my job last month promoting the show, passing out 'True Blood" drinks. I find it to be different but interesting. It's from the creator of Six Feet Under. The series is set in Louisiana. The storyline is about how the Japanese government synthesized blood, to make it mainstream for vampires. This allowed the Vampire race to live in the general society because they no longer needed to kill humans for blood. Of course, that's not the case for the vampires, they still kill for blood. I saw the first episode Sunday night, it was pretty good.

Watch the show, you may like it.

Oh, and here's the "True Blood" recipe:You can make blood drinks. It's similar to a root beer float.

This is what you'll need: small paper/styrofoam cups(the # depends on the # of guests) rainbow sherbert 2L strawberry soda(Welch's or Sunkist) You need to fill the cup 3/4 full of sherbert. Then just pour the soda on top. It turns into a red drink.

 cool, we'll try that out. thanks

i really really want to see that show.... i have to watch it !!! when is it on?

 It airs on Sunday nights at 8p or 9p. I just watch on video on demand, which is available 24/7 depending on your cable/satellite provider.

I have to admit i started watching True Blood on the Video For Demand. There was 3 or 4 listed and i started with the piolit ep and was instantly hooked. I watching weekly and must admit that with HBO i was upset when the cancled Canivale but HBO now has brought back my hopes with True Blood. And the girl who can hear every one's thoughts yea thats kinda of a twist.

 I never really watched Carnivale but I know it was a hit with a lot of viewers. Well, I am on Ep 3 of True Blood. I hope it continues to be very interesting. Maybe we can make this our True Blood forum. LOL.

I've watched every episode so far but I must admit I'm not entirely hooked and it's seems less vampire-y than I would like. There's a lot of sex and lust and heck even a murder every episode but it feels like the vampire aspect is thrown in more than anything else. Sort of a euphemism for intolerance rather than any real concentration on vampire culture.

Or at least that's my opinion of it. Nice to see Aunt Meg from Twister getting solid work though... or at least for a few episodes.

HBO does have Bloodcopy, which is a more intricate look on the lifestyle. It's on Comcast ondemand, not sure if you have that in your area though.

I haven't heard of it before, I don't think we ever got it over here. That happens alot.

it takes a few shows to get into it, but once your in, well your in.

 I hardly watch tv lol.

 i'm not good on following shows. i usually just watch whatever is on when i turn on my tv

 I am definitely in. This show came out during the appropriate season, right before Halloween. I just watch whenever I can on vod, otherwise I wouldn't be able to keep up with it either. That's why I can't ever follow any series on the local networks.

 i miss episodes, then tell myself i'll watch it online later, but then i get distracted. so my only option is to watch whatever happens to be on when i feel like watching tv
