by TV Show Warehouse on May 15, 2012

LOS ANGELES (TheWrap.com) – The newest trailer for the fifth season of HBO’s vampire drama “True Blood” comes with the Twitter hashtag #WaitingSucks, an appropriate sentiment after an action-packed clip that features vampire king Russell wanting “anarchy,” and Chris Meloni joining the cast as Vampire Authority head Roman. Vampire-human relations have broken down, to say the least, and Roman is none-too-pleased about it. …

Like many of you, I obsessively sleuth out promos and have lurid, fan-fiction daydreams about where my favorite TV shows are going with almost no urging, so my brain is bubbling over HBO’s freshly released promo stills of True Blood Season 5. True Blood is the Vampire Queen of my heart, my absolute favorite series of all eternity, so clapping my eyeballs on these preview shots was like sipping the sweet, life-giving elixir of 1,000-year-old vampire blood. Let’s look them over and see what we can make of them! >

True Blood: Watch the First Season 5 Trailer (VIDEO)

by TV Show Warehouse on April 2, 2012

Not gonna lie: I stopped watching True Blood when that one season opened with Sookie in a faerie world and weirdos started throwing fireballs all over the place, so I’m unable to tell you what’s going on in this first new-footage-including trailer for True Blood ‘s fifth season.

by TV Show Warehouse on March 27, 2012

It’s not quite summer yet, but HBO wants you get excited for True Blood Season 5 starting… now! And so the network has released three new, hmmm, “trailers” isn’t the right word so let’s go with “promos.” Each video focuses on one of three recognizable locations from the show: Sookie’s house, Bill’s house, and Fangtasia.

Guest-star Joe Manganiello did not have a nude scene on White Collar this week, let’s just get that out of the way up front. But it was nice that he took some time away from his between-seasons-of- True Blood regimen of sit-ups to chill with Matt Bomer for a few days!
