True Blood at Buy.com
I absolutely love the show True Blood on HBO, I'm actually watching a repeat of the latest episode from season 3 right now.
I have always loved vampires and vampire movies, books, tv shows, and this is one of the absolute best vampire shows that I've ever seen.
I never miss an episode.
I would like to own the first two seasons on DVD, and I could if I had the spare money because they are actually on sale at Buy.com right now.
Season 1 is on sale for $35.25 down from $50.00, and season 2 is on sale for $32.89 down from $50.00.
I would also like to get and read the Sookie Stackhouse books too.
I would like to get those because the show is different from the books, they take some liberties with the show, change it up quite a bit, they kind of have to because they don't know how many seasons they are going to run the show, plus, it's always good to change things up for the entertainment value.
I know with other "vampire" books and movies that are out right now, the fans pick teams, and I know that there are teams with True Blood too.
Team Bill and Team Eric.
I don't have a team, I like both of the lead vampires for different reasons.
I also like Lafayette a lot, he's Tara's cousin and a friend to Sookie, as well as now working for Eric and Pam.
Lafayette is just one of the coolest characters on the show, I just adore him.
Eric is the sheriff and Pam is like his assistant vampire at the club Fangtasia.
And now in season 3 of the show, there are werewolves.
Oh, unlike the other current vampire stories, Sookie Stackhouse is a strong woman, a strong female lead.
The other vampire stories, the lead female torn between the vampire and the werewolf, she's weak, she simply can't be without a man in her life, she goes from the vampire to the werewolf, when the vampire leaves her to protect her, she ends up sitting in her room pathetically for months.
No no no!
Sookie Stackhouse is a strong female lead, she can handle anything thrown at her even when Bill breaks her heart, she doesn't just sit down and mourn for months, she just gets up and keeps on going, trying to find him because she knows something's not right.
This show is simply amazing!
I know it's not for everyone, but if you're a vampire fan, then this show would be a good one to watch.

I too love True Blood. My favorite show. I am Team Eric, of course. Who doesn't love an obnoxious viking vampire? LOL! I also love Lafayette. His one liners amuse the heck out of me..."Hookah please!"
The books are quite different from the show and I also enjoy reading them. I am currently reading my way 1-8 books, because I finally have 9 & 10 to read. Hang on...I am going to email you about something.
