Rating: - Big....no HUGE disapointment

I am so glad I am not the only person who was disapointed in this show.

I have read the books and enjoyed them, followed the hype until the show started, watched the first episode to the end and thought...."huh, what the heck was that all about?" The whole thing was sleazy and uncomfortable to watch.

The accents drove me crackers. Do they really speak like that in the south? I have been to New Orleans and I did not notice the annoying drawl.

None of the characters were likable, or particularly interesting. Oh and when I read the books, I don't remember any character called "Sucky"!!!

I gave up after the third episode.

The only good thing going for this show is the title music and that is what my one star is for.

Rating: - Excellent series

I couldn't cope with all the ad breaks on the terrestrial TV broadcast of this so decided to order the BD version instead. It is a fantastic series and I'd highly recommend buying. Video and audio quality is great.

Rating: - Absolutely Brilliant!!!

I saw one episode of this series on TV and was hooked and ordered the complete season immediately!If you are a vampire fan and like a touch of humour then this may be for you. Be prepared though it has a lot of sex scenes and they are quite explicit so keep the DVD away from younger folk as this is a very grown up Twilight!!
The leading female is Sookie who is a waitress with a quirk-she can read minds.Vampires are now recognised members of society and the story kicks off when one enters the bar where Sookie works and so changes the course of her life.She is drawn into a new world where she is mingling with vampires,shapeshiftersand demons as well as being romanced by some very charismatic vampires.
Very enjoyable if you like losing yourself in the paranormal. I have since read the books that the series is based on and realise they are only very loosely based but that dosent seem to matter both can be enjoyed equally and I am looking forward to Season 2 on DVD.

Rating: - great show

i'm not much of a talker or writer so all i will say is
this is one hell of a show and i can't wait for season 2 to be out on DVD

Rating: - Fantastic and addictive!

Don't let the kddies watch this! It is very erotic with some jaw-dropping sex scenes, especially in the early episodes. Having read the books (all of which are excellent and well-written), the series does veer some way from the original stories, but this in no way detracts from the first season of True Blood. The DVD is worth buying for the series theme tune ("Bad Things") alone! Can't wait for the second series!
