True Crud

This came from a conversation with gildedage about True Blood and how we wish it were more like The Vampire Odd Couple.

Original Post is Here. I messed up something with the mirroring to LJ.

I love that True Blood is totally tongue-in-cheek. I don't know about you, but I read the first book after I started watching the show and found that sense of humor missing.

The book series is short of funny, but like, Helllooooo sex. This is one of those things were the TV series is better than the show.

I haven't read the books! But it is definitely my favorite part of the show. If it tried to take itself too seriously, it would fall flat on its face. That, plus...things like the fact that the show is totally aware of the fact that Bill is creepy and misogynistic and plays on that, instead of Twilight where it's like OMG THIS IS SO CREEPY AND MISOGYNISTIC and you can tell that Stephenie Meyer totally thinks it's wonderful and romantic.
