Here Be Vampires!

Werewolves? Why can't these authors stick with just one kind. Anne Rice was fine until we had to add the whole stockpot full of creatures. Ugh.

Yeah, I really wish they'd just stick to the Vampires - I think there is much in the true blood premise left to explore. With Vampires among us, it would be interesting to see how they get integrated into society - hold down jobs - why wouldn't there be Vampire History professors, research scientists, artists. This whole notion of how one would spend an immortal life is left unexplored.

Spending time with shape shifters, warewolves, mummy's, greco-roman demi-gods who haven't joined mainstream life is a waste of an interesting premise.

That said, I'm loving True Blood and hope that continues into the next season.

Remember that Sam is a Shape Shifter and Maryanne is (was?) a Maenad. Even Sookie, the main character is a "Supe" (Supernatural).

I would comment on the addition of Weres to True Blood, but I don't want to spoiler anything (even though they have hinted at a lot of it in the previews), If they carry over as much of the Weres from the books as I think they are, I believe it will make an interesting season.
