*ARCHIVED* True Blood S01E01 - Strange Love FULL REACTION

The actors playing sookie and Bill met on the show and are married in real life🐺

haven't seen this show in awhile and I was never a fan of the intro.

Sookie isnt physic she hears peoples thoughts

Chantelle Miles

oh wow True Blood. hope you pick this one up too.

Nicole Christie

I hope you pick this one up. It's a vampire show, but quite different in many aspects. Sookie and Bill are interesting characters . Heck, even all the side characters you saw are interesting.

Monique Hunt

Oh you are getting me through the last few hours of my job, thank you.

Melazond

Can you guys imagine her carrying on and seeing a certain glee character be totally out of their element in the first few eps?! 😂

Signe (Seena) Stewart

Ah I wish you’d start reacting to the whole series. True Blood is over the top for sure but it’s also a wild ride and lots of fun. I think you’d enjoy it if you continued to watch.

cil

Yeah... When i was watching her reaction i kept thinking how much she is like Sookie. I though how her face was when things had been said and DONE... Shan and Sookie are a lot a like when we see this😊

These are characters of the south (in the US), but Anna Paquin was born in Canada and spent much of her childhood in NZ. Ryan Kwanten (Jason Stackhouse) is from Australia. Stephen Moyer (Vampire Bill) is from England. The number of different accents you would hear on the set would have been kind of crazy -- and fun.

UTU49

Shan, what do their accents sound like to you? I'm curious about how these accents of the American south sound to an Australian.

UTU49

I watched TB a long time ago. It really is OVER THE TOP non stop. It pretty much wallows in depravity -- which can be fun sometimes.

UTU49

This is more commonly called "Lame Buffy Ripoff #1"... by ME. (Twilight is "Lame Buffy Ripoff #2".) No, I'm just kidding. For my tastes, True Blood is worth watching, but not one of my favourites.

UTU49

Ahh, sweet innocent Shan... haha

WB

Such a wonderful show, I really hope you decide to react to the entire show one day when you have an opening, its such a fun show

Jon Dub

I think Tera is anything but an angry black girl stereotype. She’s angry af and she’s black, but she’s as complex as ever. Alan Ball who created this is from the South, and so is Charlaine Harris, the writer of the Southern Vampire Mysteries. I lived in a small town in Nothern MO, which is the Midwest, but God did they get those small town cliches right.

Alexis Cardarella

Couldn't tell if you were into it or not, you didn't appear to hate it but wasn't sure if this would be something you would do a full series react to. If you were to give it a chance I think it would be a great replacement to Buffy once that is done. Fun side note for you, while filming the show the actors that play Sookie and Bill found their chemistry transferred to the real world fell in love got married and had babies.

Also, i love Jason... and Lafayette... lol

I really really hope you will pick up this show for reaction series once you have space! Lots kf sex, swearing and gore haha but its so stupidly addictive. Loved this show!

Because it's Louisiana, where the French colonized before America became the United States of America, there's a lot of French influence. So the town is called 'Bon Temps' which is French for 'Good times'. there's a French Cajun saying that goes : Bon Temps Rouler which translates to 'Let the Good Times Roll'. You get a little of the cajun influence in the Originals but you'll find New Orleans, Louisiana has it's own particular culture made up from the mix of Creoles, Cajuns, Spanish, French, Native, and African cultures.

I'm just doing the pilot. Maybe the show when I have an opening, but it's for the pilot tier. There's a tier that people can join to request a pilot episode. I do just the pilot, but it can influence my decision to do the show when I have an opening - so I'm not being stretched too thin :P

After Show Reactions

Shan is too pure for this world :D

James MacDonald

yeah, this show is something. It would be interesting to see you continue with it, some answers to some of your questions, some other great characters (especially the Sheriff), and you have some of the best expressions to the weirdness this show thrives on and it would be interesting to see that!

Brendan O'Connor

I'd love to see more reactions because your face was a picture xD - Maybe in the future!

Callumbo Heath

The irony of this show is that it's supposed to be all about prejudice and unfair stereotypes, but the show itself milks every stereotype imaginable about the South, Louisiana, Cajun culture, etc. Plus you've got the obligatory "angry Black woman," the sassy gay / trans character, creepy back-woods types. and the like. You are so right that all the characters are over big and over played. The premise is really good, and it's not dull, but the show revels a bit too much in cartoonish filth. It was fun rewatching it though!

Andrew Pulrang

OMG cant believe your doing True Blood reactions, it is such an amazing show, and more realistic when it comes to vampires and violence. Know you will love this show and most characters especially the best Lafayette...hes so funny and just the best!! one of my faves along with another hot blonde vampire :D gonna watch ep 1 reaction now but looking forward to your True blood journey

Chantelle Miles

Didn't see this coming, but I am glad it did. I hope you'll continue with reactions to this show, but do you have time for this? Don't stretch yourself too thin.

MyDanishThoughts

Can't predict whether True Blood would be your favorite right up there with Buffy/Angel, or if it would twist you inside too frequently. Everyone's personality starts at 100, and keeps going up from there.

Mike Woodcock

I LOVE IT! OH BOY, OH BOY, OH BOY!!! I SO HOPE YOU CONTINUE REACTING TO TB! I KNOW ITS A LOT TO TAKE IN AT FIRST, BUT YOU'LL GET USED TO IT... SOOKIES GREAT BUT LAFIETT IS MY FAVE CHARACTER FROM START TO FINISH. REALLY HOPE YOU KEEP ON WITH IT! THANX SO MUCH FOR THIS!
