Seriously... genius!!! Pure comic excellence at it's very best!!! It's truly no wonder at all they continued with much the same in SPN!!!! So glad Kripke & Crew tapped into that and didn't ignore it!!!
Told ya DA was worth watching! Also told ya Alec has some similarities with Dean. Shame DA got cancelled so soon, I would have liked Max and Alec to get together.

The books are called The Southern Vampire and the series is called True Blood. The TV show is based on the books.

smiley, are you into fantasy, plain LotR fantasy with no frills or unnnecessary light sabers or anything attached? Because speaking of a TV show based on books, I have found and grown to love a TV show called Legend of the Seeker, that is based on a series of books called Sword of Truth, and I think AJ would really like it.
Here's the link to the first ep (you know, click on the number), although I have to say the first two eps didn't convince me, but by the 3rd ep I fell in love with the show.

I know the show would eventually grow on you, Calena. And to think you were calling it too predictable and boring.

Well I still think it's predictable, but it's not boring, because it's very humorous, has good visual effects and I dig the characters, especially the male lead, despite being a bit young for my taste.

I agree. The humor is one thing that really sticks out. I don't think the lead looks that young, however. He kind of reminds me of Orlando Bloom for some reason. Have you noticed the similarity?

He reminded me of someone, but I never consciously made the connection. Now you said it I agree with you, he really looks like a very young Orlando Bloom.

Very young? He doesn't look so young to me.

I love LOTR movies... As you know... Smiley never quite got the whole Star Wars thing....that saying though, If I had to sit down next to a guy who was a Star Wars fans and have him really explain it to me... maybe I would get it a tad more!!! ......
.....
.....
I'm only joking... I wouldn't stay awake long enough to really appreciate the effort... ...
Haven't heard of LOTS show.... Mini Me has some really strange tastes in TV shows... He's following that Merlin show at the moment... I haven't watched it, don't have a clue what it's about... but I assume it's something to do with Arthur & Camelot!!!

As much as I liked the general flow of character play in LOTR's... I really could never take to Orlando Bloom in that!!! He isn't a bad actor... just in that... just didn't get the whole point of him!!!
