Thanks so much for reacting to this! There's a definite camp factor to True Blood, but I think the cheesiness is part of its appeal. Agree with you about the fangs though, I never liked the fangs on this show. For me, the selling point of the show is the characters. As the episodes play out, you really come to love Sookie, Bill, Tara, Sam, Lafayette, etc. Anna Paquin (Sookie) and Stephen Moyer (Bill) met on the show and are now married. She's bisexual, but apparently non-practicing. And Nelsan Ellis, who plays Lafeyette, died in 2017 of alcohol withdrawal. So tragic, he was one of the best on this show. Love Lafayette! Thanks so much for the reaction! I was really curious to get your take on the show. True Blood was great the first 3 seasons. After that it fell off, but the first 3 seasons make a great binge watch, even if you just binge it privately lol. Excited for Hill House and Shameless this week! Thanks Juli! :)

By the way, fun fact. Nelsan Ellis, who played Lafayette, was 100% straight. Great actor.

The Vampire Diaries came out a year after True Blood so it’s not the time period of the show that makes it so particular. There’s a genre called Southern Gothic which is very melodramatic with elements of horror. The introduction sort of encapsulates how extra everything is. Also the show is based off a series of books and the grandmother was reading the first one st the dinner table in that scene. And yes, they went with rattlesnake fangs so they could be different from other vampire shows. :) I can’t wait for you to see the rest in a few months. It’s so sexy, crazy, and extra. :)

Thanks for reacting to True Blood! It was one of my favorite shows. The first three seasons anyway.

I feel like your mic is low for some videos now. Like it's hard to hear you sometimes. Unless you speak loudly.

JuliDG

Yeah Idk what is happening. I will fix it for future videos bc it's hard to edit as well.

Just Jamie

The actor and actress who play Sookie and Bill are married in real life

Jarrod Wild

So much talent. So sad that his attempt to fight his addiction is what killed him. He wasn't even 40. :(

I also really liked season 4, then just tolerated season 5, and then after that I sort of gave up (made it through season 6 and then quit without watching the last season). The further the show drifted away from the books, the less invested I felt.

The pilot is a bit chessy but the storyline is so good. The first season is one of my favs.

Kenny

Would love to see you react to a full season of this! I really think you'd like it.

Hazel Angus

I'd also be interested in you reacting to more of this, so adding my vote here! I think it was still good in later seasons, but I haven't read the books yet, I'd probably feel differently if I had.

If you do more True Blood I will lose my mind! I loved that show!
