True Blood in 10

“Bela’s undead!” Oops, wrong reference. “You’re dead, you’re dead, you’re dead! Stay dead, stay dead, stay dead!” That’s better.

So, what do you do in the shadows? That’s what we’re discussing this week for part 3 of Hot Vampire Summer: “What We Do in the Shadows” (Hulu).

In this fabulous mockumentary series, created by Jemaine Clement and Taika Waititi, we follow four vampires who live together with their familiar (Guillermo). Three of the vampires are the “proper” blood-sucking kind (Nandor, Nadja, and Laszlo), while the fourth is of the energy-sucking kind (Colin Robinson).

Note that we are not dealing with worldly, uber-rich vamps—or even steamy Nordic vamps living in Louisiana. No, no. These ones can’t pronounce VCR and don’t know what the Internet is. We’re not sure how they pay their bills since it doesn’t appear that they absconded with any victim’s property or made any wise investments. 

Spoilery? Well, that’s all Cort and Kelly know from the first two seasons of a show that’s ending its fourth season. So, we’ll give no further details! Just watch it! And listen only if you’re caught up to episode 1 of season 3!

Next week we’re back to our 7 Deadly Sins theme with Sloth. No, not the adorable animal! And who decided that sloth was a sin? A little laziness on occasion is okay on our podcast! We’ll be back next week with “Wall-E.”

We have read most of Charlaine Harris’ Sookie Stackhouse novels, but we promise not to spoil any of the storylines that haven’t already been covered in the show.  Since the show is explicit, this podcast is also tagged explicit so we (and you) can quote and discuss the show as it was made - with all the blood, sex, and hot vampires that we can handle.

Susan & Kelly discuss episode 9 of the final season of True Blood, Love Is to Die. Both were travelling & Susan talked to Cort of Watchers of Anarchy after watching this episode. 

The Watchers had a meetup & live show in the Chicago area over the weekend. Much fun was had by all & we're looking forward to the final season of Sons of Anarchy.
