'True Blood' serves up a lot of blood. And sex. And bloody sex. And if you happen to enjoy these things, it's likely you're tuning in to HBO's mega-hit Southern vampire saga every Sunday night for a fix. But this season -- the dirtiest yet! -- has us asking, has it gone too far? In the same pushing-the-undead-envelope spirit, the stars of the show "grace" the cover of this month's Rolling ...

Seeing Red: Does 'True Blood' Have Too Much Blood in Season Three?

Posted Aug 9th 2010 at 04:30 PM by John Clarke Jr.

Pop-Ed: 'True Blood' fans can remember back to that first season when a campy gem was born. The fangs were shorter -- almost Ricky Gervais-sized -- while plots focused around the social strife and political tensions between vampires and humans, with overtones of heated 1960s race relations. We met a motley crew of characters, lovable, hated and some in-between. Alan Ball's HBO creation was ...

A vampire's diet may seem simple, but keeping an otherworldly figure is a bit more of a challenge, reveals 'True Blood' heartthrob Stephen Moyer.

Sink Your Teeth Into This: There Are Too Many Vampires and They Don't Play By the Rules

Posted Jul 2nd 2010 at 11:59 PM by Will Durst

Pop-Ed: First the 'Vampire Diaries.' Then HBO's hit 'True Blood.' Now the third Twilight film, 'Eclipse,' has descended upon every multiplex -- with more waiting in the wings (bat wings, I'm sure). I think it's time we take a breather from our Gulf Coast miasma in order to focus on a blight of cultural crude washing up on American shores. The Ushers at the Gates of Hell themselves -- of which we ...

Posted Jun 29th 2010 at 02:41 PM by Jennifer Vineyard

As the striking Viking Eric Northman on 'True Blood,' Alexander Skarsgård never fails to make you take notice when he's onscreen, even when he's delivering his lines in the most deadpan, laconic way possible -- he's just that riveting.

Posted Jun 28th 2010 at 06:40 PM by Jane Boursaw

Pop-ed: Fans of 'True Blood' were told that this season of the HBO hit about vampires and werewolves would include some of the most twisted scenes on TV, but did last night's episode -- particularly its closing moments -- go too far? After the credits rolled, I filed my review for TV Squad, attempted to regain my sense of what's right and wrong in the world, posted a note on my Facebook ...
