True Blood: Bloody and Still Sexy

I know, its Season 3 already. But it's a great series, so watch it again and again. Alan Ball's True Blood is sexy and mysterious. it's full of violence, blood and occasionally funny and offers intense sex scenes. The setting is in a world where vampires are part of our society. Thanks to the invention of mass-produced synthetic blood, vampires no longer need humans for food. In turn they can live freely with us humans, though not yet fully accepted and being criticized as to any human beings.

The focus is in the  backwoods Louisiana town of Bon Temps where Sookie Stackhouse (Anna Paquin), a waitress at Merlotte is working. She has somehow acquired the power to read minds which makes her life interesting.
Sookie's life becomes more complicated when Merlotte’s gets its first vampire customer, the 173-year old Bill Compton (Stephen Moyer). They were immediately drawn to each other.


The series follows Sookie Stackhouse, a barmaid living in Louisiana who can read people's minds, and how her life is turned upside down when the Vampire Bill, walks into her place of employment two years after vampires 'came out of the coffin' on national television. [imdb]
