I just finished watching the first season of this and i must say: it was pretty darn good.
as a fan of vampire fiction i liked the different approach to the theme. holy water - itôs just water. vampire blood as the ultimate drug, crosses are crosses nothing more.
the interesting thing about this show (well besides the fact that they show sex quite often and without covering it with sheets. hell youôll even get to see vampire fucking which is a little bit disturbing) is that it has interesting characters you really want to listen to and see where they are going. different to many other tv shows i saw (heroes as the best example) the characters and the dialogues are quite vivid and most of the time not boring. it is funny but far from ridiculous. The storywriting is quit mature. They donôt make it up while shooting (as seen in so many shows lately). it feels like they knew where they were headed.
and i really dig that southern redneck scenario although i need subtitles to understand them completely.
also: i am a fan of those 12 episodes season tv shows. Dexter (specially the first season) and originally prison break (first half of the first season was originally planned to be the whole thing) showed that the storytelling can be more focused without the need of filler episodes.
so...check it out. itôs good tv for you!
