True Blood: Season 1, Episode 2 "The First Taste" (B)
I really do like this show, and while episode two isn't quite as good as number one, I'm committed to seeing this show through for at least the next few episodes. Anna Paquin is an incredible lead, and I love learning more about her telepathic childhood and past. Her brother's outright rejection of her vampire buddy is perfectly contrasted by their grandmother's warm enthusiasm after hearing him talk about his Civil War times. I realize there's the current of the vampire murders in the background, but I'm much more interested in what's at the forefront of the show. The scene with Paquin's character sucking on the vampire's arm was a bit tough to take. I haven't been that uncomfortable watching TV in a long time. Ah well, I guess disturbing can make for good television.
