True Blood



So, I don't know if anyone has caught onto this show yet, but I must say that it is absolutely fantastic. It's created by Alan Ball, the man behind 6 Feet Under (for any fans of that show), and comes on Sunday nights at 9pm. In case you're unaware the basic premise is about the integration of vampires into mainstream society. It's set down in Louisiana, down in the swamp lands, and has this very spooky, gritty, and yet charming feel. Also of note is the fantastic selection of music, perfect example being last episode when Femme Fatale was playing while two characters were sniting vampire blood in a rundown trailer. It's part horror, part mystery, part love story, and part drama. So, all that said, if you have HBO and haven't seen the show yet I highly recommend it.
