Jace at Televisionary Blog has written a rather lengthy opinion on the first two episodes of True Blood. Previously he had been quite critical of an early version of the pilot but after seeing a new edit, and the second episode, thinks HBO may be headed in the right direction.
“If there was a way to skip the first episode (which does, unfortunately, set up the series) and watch the second, I would definitely advise you to figure that out. The second episode is a clearer realization of Charlaine Harris' novels, blending together backwoods humor, underworld menaces, and homespun wisdom into a much more appealing package and we're given a much clearer sense of Sookie's world and how each of the characters interact.”
