I just finished the series. I still can't believe how good it is. Like many have said, this is the best thing I've seen in a while.

Can't wait for the next season.

Sure thing.  It positively rocks.  Some folks believe that MM was given the Best Actor Award as much for this or maybe even more than for his movie performance for which he was given the Oscar.  I'm buyin it.  He is mesmerizing in this.  When a performance is this convincing, ya gotta give the actor or actress their due.  His performance is in whole nuther league.  Good for this dude.  HBO is maybe the best avenue for writers ever.  And because of them, more and more good writing is taking over.  But, for the life of me, I cannot get into that silly vampire/werewolf series nonsense.  My daughter watches it and I can't help but remark all the way thru it.  That silly switchblade knife sound that's made when they show their fangs should be in the hall of fame of lame.

You're right. McConaughey absolutely stole the show.

The first season of True Blood was okay. The rest are just garbage. You are not missing much  :lol:
