True Blood. Yes or no? Better than (or at least sufficiently different from) the books?
I haven't even looked for a single episode of this show, because I was so turned off by the first book - I didn't last more than a chapter. I am not a reader of romance, paranormal or otherwise; the closest I've gotten to reading romance was Diana Gabaldon. I was taught that description should be enough to get a taste for the character, not nauseatingly exhaustive (I do not care about Sookie's SOCKS AND SHOES, thank you). It occurs to me, however, that description will not be an issue in a television show. Should I give it a chance?
What's your favorite show right now, and why should I be watching it?
