True Blood

I'm intrigued by Alan Ball's new show for HBO, True Blood, which is about a small town Louisiana waitress who falls in with a bunch of vampires. It reminds me of Robin McKinley's book Sunshine, which I really enjoyed, and this seems to be a much more popular genre of story than I previously realized. I guess vampires are kind of having a bit of a pop culture resurgence, with Moonlight and this show, and the movie/book Twilight.

This TV show looks kind of fun and soapy, so hopefully it will turn out well!
