Theraflu 1,047 Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 Anyone else excited about this? I think it is 12 episodes, starting on 9-7-08.I am looking forward to it. Have high hopes....I've never been into anything with vampires, ever, but the extended preview I saw the other day had a lot of crazy clips. HBO doesn't disappoint too often, so it should at least be entertaining. Link to post Share on other sites
Jadaki 1 Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 Girl I work with got a screener copy of the first episode. She liked it a lot and since we have similar tastes in shows I'm looking forward to it. She said the supporting cast is really good. Link to post Share on other sites
Jadaki 1 Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 There is a series of twelve 2-3 minute clips on HBO On Demand right now following an investigative report into the discovery of vampires on the planet and the reactions that follow inducing some sneak peaks at some of the characters that will be key in the series.. like the guy who ran the hotel in Deadwood is playing the town sheriff in the series.

SuitedAces21 2,741 Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 like the guy who ran the hotel in Deadwood is playing the town sheriff in the series.Dont act like you dont know the name of E.B. Farnum. Link to post Share on other sites
Jadaki 1 Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 Dont act like you dont know the name of E.B. Farnum.It slipped my mind sir.FYI, because the screener made it to the hands of a few various places, i's naturally floating around on the net if you want to get a sneak peak at the show. I have a copy on my laptop, I just haven't had time to watch it yet.... fucking Java homework.Watched it, very interesting so far. The main characters best friend is hilarious.

JTGamblere 0 Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 I am SUPER excited for this show. Rogue from X-Men is in it, and she is my girl. I don't expect another Sopranoes- but Vampires are real cool.Good for you HBO Link to post Share on other sites
Mercury69 3 Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 This show is from the Six Feet Under people. Should make for good TV, even if vampires are overdone. There's a lot at STAKE, but I think the corporate BLOODSUCKERS will enjoy sinking their TEETH into a series unimpeded by censorship. Link to post Share on other sites
Jadaki 1 Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 So far the only thing that was a bit overdone/unusual about the vampires in the first episode is a scene where a vampire is having sex with this chick from behind while she is tied up, and it gets a little creepy.

Jadaki 1 Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 So I watched the premiere last night. They recasted the role of Tara, which sucks because the girl who played the role originally was much more believable. Link to post Share on other sites

Ron_Mexico 4,238 Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Does Anna Paquin get naked at all? What about the black chick? I need to know these things please. Link to post Share on other sites

Jadaki 1 Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 HBO has already ordered a second season.Also, has anyone picked up on the dog that seems to follow Sookie around? Spoilering just in case: I think Sam (bar owner) has some sort of special ability too, maybe animal empathy or shapeshifting. Notice how that dog seems to show up right after Sookie does something and gives her unusual looks, kind of like how he does when he seems concerned about her. And in the second episode there was a picture of that dog in Sam's office when they were talking. Something is fishy. Link to post Share on other sites

Just watched the first two episodes. really good stuff. agreed about sam and the dog, at least to some extent. not sure where they're going to take it, but they weren't exactly subtle with the painting of the dog protecting a little girl. And Anna Paquin is very, very sexy in this. Link to post Share on other sites

Liking it more and more. Link to post Share on other sites
jeff_536 3 Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 Okay...so who's the dog?And granny has a secret too. I wonder what it is. They've gotten into a little bit of the mythology of vampires, some the traditional stuff, like stakes and sunlight and thresholds, some not typical, like you don't become a vampire if you're bitten by one.I wonder how people become vampires. I also wonder the heirarchy. Who's the female at the top of the chain they referred to. Probably the blonde woman who's been campaigning for vampires' rights.Another good episode tonite.

Maybe no one..maybe Sam just embodies the dog or controls it with his mind or something. Josh mentioned animal empathy...something like that for sure.  Yes she does....has to. The elder thing holds true...the older, the more powerful and in charge.And I think you're dead on about the blonde lady.Can't wait for Alexander Skarsgård's character to come into play. Like him in Generation Kill. And I hate that they killed Dawn off....I loved her and her body was smokin'. She didn't mind showing it off either! Link to post Share on other sites
Jadaki 1 Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 I just watched this weeks episode last night. I'm starting to see why they went with the girl who is playing Tara now over the one who was in the original pilot. Now that she isn't spitting out recycled lines that seem like the were written with someone else in mind her character seems a little more normal now. The whole thing with Sookie's brother wanting to **** like a vampire and being willing to do adult video work to pay for it is... creepy to say the least.Sam's ability needs explained a little better, I wonder if he is aware of what he is doing.

fryer98 30 Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 And granny has a secret too. I wonder what it is. I think she's the older one that they talked about, since she seems all about Bill. Link to post Share on other sites
