True Blood.

[joekickass]

Since "Dexter", "Doctor Who" and "Torchwood" won't be starting up again for some time (Torchwood is SO CLOSE) I need a non-anime show to watch, so I just started downloading season one of "True Blood". I like Anna Paquin, so that's the one thing drawing me towards it right now. I really liked Buffy, but that doesn't reflect my feelings towards

Do you keep your bedroom door closed 24/7? It might help cool it out if it's connected to the rest of the [cooler] house. Don't melt!!

YUMMY KEG!! ::drools::

I think you'll totally love True Blood so GO GO GO! You know how naysayers are on these things. Oh, and there's lotsa blood & a bit of gore - enjoy!

I slept through most of the second half of season 1 of True Blood, to be honest. I had to force myself to sit through it at all, and only to see how far they diverged from the book out of curiosity (RETARDED VAMPIRE ELVIS TOTALLY GOT CUT OUT, Alan Ball's such a liar, he swore up and down they'd have him in there). Alan Ball was so busy trying to OMG STICK IT TO THE MAN with DEEP AND MEANINGFUL SUBPLOTS pulled out of his own ass (I'd actually read the first book before the show started because HBO gave us all free copies of it at comiccon, so I could more or less tell what was and wasn't from the books) that I woke up for the parts with actual plot movement in them and then went back to sleep. So I'd say if you ffwd through about half of every episode, and just ignore, like, every scene that doesn't involve Bill and Sookie, it's great

^Leverage is good!
The Closer is AMAZING

LAWL, I love Anna Paquin buuut True Blood bites ass
If she's in the scene, it's AWESOME
But if she's off-camera, the show becomes preeeetty worthless

Try Curb Your Enthusiasm.
It's HILARIOUS.
You have a few seasons to catch-up on but it's worth it

OH. ALSO, Pushing Daisies!!
Fnkdsfdnsjkamfds IT'S SO GOOD

I second Pushing Daisies, but only season one. Season two = meh. Season one is soooo good, though!

And megathumbsup to True Blood... especially seeing Jason shirtless repeatedly is a treat for the eyes that anyone who finds guys attractive cannot pass up!

*sadness*
I really wish I liked Curb your Enthusiasm. I tried superhard to get into it, but I guess it's just not my cup of tea :(.

[calendarbaby]

Maybe I just really enjoy Larry's life being ruined over and over and oooover

Jason shirtless is .. all right.
Not my cup of tea @.@

And season one of PD is fanTAStic

I've heard that True Blood is like a non-failure version of Twilight.

True Blood is amazing.

I stopped watching at about episode 4 or 5. But Sarah convinced me to watch it again and I am so thankful for that. It got really good. It was much easier to watch when I would watch it on demand.

Now I have to wait to watch it every Sunday at 9pm. Fuck that haters of this show. Give it a shot.
