True Blood
Vampire Myths: How the Big 3 Stack Up
The release of New Moon is steadily approaching amid a vampire trend that's hotter than ever. In addition to the Twilight gang, The Vampire Diaries keeps getting better, and True Blood just wrapped its second amazing season. I love all three, and have been thinking lately about how they each regard classic vampire mythology, from garlic, to crucifixes, to vampire transitions.

TV Tonight: The True Blood Season Two Finale
Word on the street is that a major character will be killed off on tonight's season finale of True Blood, capping off the second season with the episode "Beyond Here Lies Nothin'". With orgies, sacrifices and a maenad (still not sure what that is), to say that this season was far bloodier and sex-filled than the first is a major understatement.

Get Ready to Drink Up More True Blood, Literally
Anna Paquin celebrated her 27th birthday with her fellow True Blood costars at Comic-Con yesterday. The panel started off on an exciting note when Alan Ball announced that the official True Blood drink (it'll be "blood orange" soda) was a go, and the fun continued from there. It was interesting to see the scariness of the show combined with the cast's funny anecdotes about fang malfunctions, and it was even more exciting to see the very real chemistry between Anna and Stephen Moyer.
