for no particular reason
I don’t watch much TV, but I am picky about what I do watch. Recently I switched to Time Warner’s digital phone service because they offered it to me for a ridiculously low price just when I was thinking about switching anyway. In one of those infamous Time Warner deals that totally piss off people who already have the service, they threw in a free DVR and a year of HBO.
So now I’m totally hooked on True Blood, your typical small-town-psychic-waitress-hooks-up-with-local-vampire romance. From the same guy who did the Six Feet Under series, which I still haven’t seen even though it’s re-run on regular cable now.
Tonight I found the True Blood trailer on YouTube, which I feel compelled to post here. It sets up the tone of the series quite well, though unfortunately the YouTube video drops a lot of the frames even in the high quality version—there are a lot of quick edits. Still, the song is there, and that’s pretty damn cool. Anyway, if you haven’t seen it, maybe this will let you in on what people are talking about.
