Watch True Blood TV Show Online and Be Blown Away

Forget about Sex and the City. Watch True Blood TV show online, the HBO unabashedly sexual series. This show centers on Sookie Stackhouse [Ana Paquin], a telepathic waitress who works at Merlotte’s in the fictional town of Bon Temps, Louisiana.

The possibility of a peaceful co-existence between vampires and humans was challenged when Sookie meets Bill Campton [Stephen Moyer], a 173-year old vampire. When they fell in love, this tolerance was stretched almost at breaking point. Add to this brew the serial murders of several human women who had affairs with vampires, and show creator Allan Ball, who once explored similar dark territory in Six Feet Under, has another hit on his hands.

Show creator Allan Ball is credited with making the dead appear glamorous in Six Feet Under. Ball, however, gave full reign to his death fixation by injecting True Blood with life-infusing sex, not only sex but carnal and oftentimes animalistic sex. One of these involved Sookie and Bill making out in the middle of a graveyard, which viewers can watch when they download True Blood online.

True Blood is peopled by colorful characters. Sookie may be a gifted telepath but her brother Jason [Ryan Kwanten] is the local Lothario who in Season One was accused of murder. The diner where she works, Merlotte’s, hums with the voices of Lafayette [Nelsan Ellis], the cook who also part-times as Jason’s gay drug pusher; Tara, Sookie’s bestfriend who was involved in a bizarre exorcism rite; and Sam Merlotte, Sookie’s boss, who also happens to be a shape-shifter.

While out looking out for a material on his new series, Ball came across Dead Until Dark, the first installment in Harris’ vampire series. This was pre-Twilight, but Ball became excited in bringing Harris’ vision to the small screen.

The books had two other adaptation options when Ball approached their author. But in the end, Harris chose to work with him because she liked his enthusiasm and felt that Ball understood what she was doing with the books.

True blood premiered on September 2008. It garnered a very modest 1.44 million viewers but this figure jumped by November to reach 6.8 million a week, which included repeat and on-demand viewings. The series now rivaled the popularity of HBO-produced The Sopranos and Sex and the City.

If the saying sex sells is anything to go by, then Ball and HBO certainly did find a goldmine in the show. Watch True Blood TV show online now.
