Handsome Stranger? Be Careful. He Bites.
By ALESSANDRA STANLEY
One of the older waitresses at Merlotte’s, a dive bar in Bon Temps, La., doesn’t dare refuse to serve her customer Trublood, but draws the line at true hospitality. The stranger orders O negative, but is told there is only A negative, even though the fridge is full of both synthetic blood types. “And don’t microwave it, neither,” the waitress says to the bartender. “He can drink it cold.”
The vampires on “True Blood,” a new series on HBO, have “come out of the coffin,” as one woman puts it, thanks to a Japanese substitute that supposedly satisfies their inhuman blood lust. They are seeking acceptance and passage of the Vampire Rights Amendment in a society that is still prejudiced against the life-threatening lifestyles of the living dead.
Vampires have Washington lobbyists, support groups and talk show pundits. They also have their own louche bars, and the one closest to Bon Temps is Fangtasia, where reckless mortals, known as Fang-bangers, trawl for the intoxicating taste of vampire sex.
That sly sendup of American culture and pop politics is one of the more amusing features in this new venture by Alan Ball, the creator of “Six Feet Under.” It’s not the only inversion. ( Read more... )

The Six Sexiest TV Vampires Ever
by Angel Cohn
With True Blood premiering this weekend, I was inspired to take a look back at the hottest bloodsuckers to grace the small screen. I have little doubt that TB's own fanged Bill will be joining this list in the coming weeks, if they stick at all close to the smokin' hot books (which are filled with seriously smutty vampire sex... and I mean that in the best possible way), and judging by the first two episodes they kind of are. So here's a look at the other cold-blooded creatures that can make your blood boil... with or without the help of those fancy glamor things.( Read more... )
