WOOT!

I feel like such a bargain shopper today 'cause I managed to pick up a copy of True Blood Season One for $17.99 at Target and saved myself nearly $35.00.

It's a show I haven't seen yet, but all the folks who know me seem to think it's a show made just for me. I'll let you know if they're right.

You know the guy who plays Brad is supposed to have a big role in the upcoming season, but I just can't get over my squick involving vampires to watch it...

It does seem to be right up your alley though, from what I've heard.

(And A+++ on the bargain shopping)

*hugs*

Everyone has their squicks.

I suppose you're right!

Wish I didn't have it though, because y'know... Brad.

I really want to see it, and it does seem like something you would be into! (for some reason I thought you had already been watching it, actually.)

Plus, bargain shopping is pretty much my main hobby. Bravo. :)

Bargain shopping = awesome.

I like it a lot... it's very different from buffy, but i find the characters very appealing... it took me a few eps to get past the unfamiliar culture (deep south, cajun type culture) but once I did, and studied up a little on it, i was impressed with how authentic they're keeping to the area in which the story is set :)

let me know how you like it, I love it now :)

[identity profile] snogged.livejournal.com 2009-12-30 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
I will definitely keep everyone updated!

I've recced it to you a few times and now I'm scared you won't like it!

*trembles*

*huggles*

I'm bound to. I just know it.

[identity profile] lady-mutt.livejournal.com 2009-12-30 03:11 am (UTC)(link)
I've watched it. Definitely a good show, definitely one you'll like. More gratuitous sex than Buffy, but somehow i think you'll deal. ;D

Oh, I've been dealing just fine ;P

I tried True Blood when it first came out and couldn't get into it. Bill seemed like the most boring vampire ever. But that's just me. My guy friends thought it was great, which really surprised me. Let me know what you think of it - if it's one of those shows that gets better as it goes maybe I'll give it another shot.

[identity profile] snogged.livejournal.com 2010-01-03 05:50 am (UTC)(link)
Bill is kinda boring, but you know, Angel wasn't a ball of excitement either. Though I do need to say that David B. is way hotter than Stephen Moyer so Angel's going to win that round anyways.

But overall, I've been enjoying it now. I'd say it picks up as the season progresses.

[identity profile] kallie-kat.livejournal.com 2010-01-03 07:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Not only is Angel hotter, but Angelus - for me it was always about Angelus. SO much more interesting than Angel.

One of these days I will have to give it another try. I've finally finished all of Doctor Who, which was a task and a half. Time to work my way through another series, I guess.

[identity profile] snogged.livejournal.com 2010-01-03 08:35 pm (UTC)(link)
OMG! YES!!

Angelus was always a favorite of mine and I swear DB got infinitely more gorgeous and wicked when he donned the leather pants.

Do you have the first season of Bones? My sister found it at Wal-Mart for about $14. (The other seasons were still expensive, though.)

[identity profile] snogged.livejournal.com 2010-01-03 05:50 am (UTC)(link)
Don't have Bones yet. It's something I want though. And $14 is a great deal!

[identity profile] sionnach-ayame.livejournal.com 2009-12-30 02:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Awesome!!! I love bargain shopping like that! *hugs*

I hope you enjoy it! I couldn't get into it at first but I might give it another shot sometime!

[identity profile] snogged.livejournal.com 2010-01-03 05:51 am (UTC)(link)
I like it so far :)

[identity profile] hisui-ryoshi.livejournal.com 2009-12-31 07:31 pm (UTC)(link)
True Blood....well, I can't decide if I really do like it, or if I'm just watching it because I like vampires. I've read the books it's based on, and so I'm a little disappointed.

It probably is right up your ally though. And ASkars is awesome. Bill is stupid, however, TV!Bill is a vast improvement over Book!Bill.

I've read the first few Sookie books and I enjoyed them. They aren't kidding though when the show says its a loose translation of the books though.

I definitely love Eric though. He wins at unlife.

I am insanely jealous :) Really hope you love it! Happy new year!

[identity profile] snogged.livejournal.com 2010-01-03 05:45 am (UTC)(link)
I'm loving it so far and I'm about seven episodes in :)

[identity profile] tonnic-x.livejournal.com 2010-01-03 11:37 pm (UTC)(link)
You will LOVE it! And you especially love Eric! I see you as a possible Eric/Sookie 'shipper!

[identity profile] snogged.livejournal.com 2010-01-04 04:55 am (UTC)(link)
I like what I've seen of Eric so far.

[identity profile] tonnic-x.livejournal.com 2010-01-04 03:57 pm (UTC)(link)
I love Eric as well, but for myself! Hahahaha... I'm a Bill/Sookie supporter.
