And I am FLOORED that Russell did what he did on tv. Anyone have any guesses where things will go next week? We only have 3 more episodes this season, right? Do you think the AVL will infringe on Eric's killing of Russell at this point? Do you think all of humanity will turn against vampires as a result of what Russell did, or do you think the AVL will be able to calm down the human members of the public? And do you think that Eric will finally get to be the one to kill Russell? I hope so, but what can I say? I've got a thing for him HAWT HAWT HAWT!

Charlaine Harris' books are great reads, but Ball is so incredibly skilled at twisting the story line and racking (sp) it up a notch. You have to watch the short HBO has on True Blood with the actors speaking about the characters. Especially everyone imitating Steven Moyer saying "Suuhkie", lol.

Originally Posted By Labuda Terri - yeah, his throw to the weathergirl was FABULOUS! And, yep, ever since the first episode of Six Feet Under I've been hooked on anything with Alan Ball's name on it. What an amazing talent he has! Is the short you're talking about on HBO.com? Dave - I'll totally watch that later today, but right now it's time for my morning radio show fix.
Originally Posted By BeccasMommy I've read all the book, and Alan had taken that Universe and given it his own special spin, while the majority of the population remains all the rolls have been drastically changed, for the better. this is tv the way only HBO can do it, bring it on, I want the raunchier and saucier world of vamps, shifters, etcs just waiting out there!!!!

Even though I was already reading the books, I knew I had to check "True Blood" when I found out who was behind it. It's a bit extreme for my tastes, but I keep watching because I'm curious what is staying from the books and what has been changed or added.
