    I watched the first episode and was really disappointed. I love the books but the show just doesn't do them justice!

    Which book is this show based on?

    I just bought Twilight and can't wait to read that, wanted to do so before the movie came out in November.

    I think the next (3rd) episode the show will start to get better, Looks much more promising. And any new show takes at least 3-4 episodes to start to get a following too.

    There are never really any 1 episode and INSTANT HIT anymore.. but the networks and pay channels expect it or drop it much too soon.

    I'am addicted to this one
    I have been watching this since the first episode and watch the last one again the next night . Its getting really interesting. And Bill is so sexy . Don't want too spoil what hasn't been seen....but I liked all 10 Its a guessing game between me and my DH and so far I have been right. Evidently I have seen more horror movies or I have paid more attention

    I just discovered it a few days ago and had to dvr all of the episodes and catch up. Only two more episodes left, but they are saying "this season".
    My favorite part of the show is the beginning, the song and the pictures.

    I haven't been real dissapointed so far. Some things are a little far fetched, but thats what you get. It is very easy to predict what is going to happen next.

    I am a huge vampire fan though. Vampire tattoos and all. I'll watch and read anything about vampires!

    [QUOTE]Which book is this show based on?[QUOTE]

    It's based on a series by Charlaine Harris. It's known by 2 names, either the Sookie Stackhouse series or the Southern Vamps Series. right now there are 8 books out and they're great! I downloaded all of them on limewire and read them in like 4 days! the show is good, but alot of stuff doesn't match. I knew it wouldn't be exact, but come on now, some things have gone way out of bounds.

    I'm still completely in love w/ this show. I am so sad that there are only 2 eps left this season. Hopefully they won't make us wait more than a year for season 2.

    I'll have to look for those books then. Books are almost always better than the show or movie. That's what makes me nervous about the Twilight movie, I hope it does the book justice. True Blood has picked up and it is a good show, it just had a slow start.
