I haven’t talked a lot about this show in my other posts but it is one of those crazy and amazing shows that I love to tune in to. As an avid book lover, I have read all The Southern Vampire Mysteries series by Charlaine Harris – which as many people know provide the basis and characters for True Blood. From the very first book I read, I was hooked. I loved the storyline and the characters. I especially liked how the books progressed with certain characters. I will not say anymore about that because I don’t want to spoil the books for people – they should be read. When True Blood first came out, it was my awesome big sister that told me about it…the two of us have a habit of sharing all the shows that we think the other would like…she told me about Legend of the Seeker (which I absolutely love now – many people might not be familiar with it – another show based on a book series by Terry Goodkind – which unfortunately only had two seasons but epic characters – Richard and Kahlan!!!). I, on the other hand, introduced my sister to Sons of Anarchy – which she now watched and loves. So, I took my big sister’s advice and watched True Blood.Well, I was hooked. Although not totally like the books (which was to be expected) – the writers have done a good show of integrated some of the core aspects in. Some storylines I could do without but understand why they need to be in there. From all the seasons, season 4 was the best for me (you will understand why by the best 3 provided) but I am excited for Season 5 and that is why I wanted to dedicate a post to True Blood.
So, here are the Best 3…Reasons Why I Can’t Wait for a New Season of True Blood:
1. Eric, Eric, Eric and Eric
2. Russel Edgington returning
3. Sookie‘s love life

Ok. I am going to say it…I am Team Eric. I have been from the very start and let me say, Alexander Skarsgard plays Eric Northman perfectly. I can’t picture any one else in the role. He is just great. He is one of the main reasons I continue to watch True Blood, plus I love his character. Since I don’t want to spoil anything for other people who may not have watched the show…let’s just say, Eric and Sookie are just meant to be…Again, I want to say it…I am Team Eric.
I am just so excited to see how Season 5 will progress for Eric and Sookie…there are feelings there that cannot be denied…and I think are a lot stronger than with the other guy (Bill).
If you have not seen the trailers for Season 5, I have added it. Russell Edgington is back…and I don’t think he is happy – so that will definitely make for an interesting season.

True Blood Season 5 Trailer #2
Sookie’s love life is my last best 3 pick because as you can tell from my first pick, I want her with Eric and I would like to see more scenes of them together. They have chemistry and she is able to love both the good and bad of Eric. Something needs to be done this season where Sookie’s love life either gets better (with Eric) or with no one at all.
