Despite my initial hesitation, i decided to watch True Blood. Yes, the shows a little pervy but i skipped the awkward sex scenes and voila you get a pretty darn good show.

I've had my reservations about the show especially after JE (who interned at HBO told me about the show) but the raving reviews of True Blood on ONTD were so so tempting. So i man-ed up (so to speak) and watched Season 1. and i must say that it was surprisingly ok.

I couldn't help noticing that there were many striking similarities between Twilight and True Blood. Don't get me wrong they are ENTIRELY different and no one in the right mind can mistake the two but there were some similarities that were hard to avoid -like the fact that a human girl (ie:Bella vs Sookie) loves a vampire that is so gentlemanly and hates being a monster(ie:Edward vs Bill). and the fact that she has another love interest, who happens to be a shape shifter (ie:Jacob vs Sam) plus there are people out there out to kill her. But i MUST emphasise that they are way different in their own way.

Just rmb to skip/fast forward through the love scenes. ugh. puke inducing.
