i agree with the rule breaking. that's my #1 problem with twilight. buffy i let it slide because they retained most powers and weaknesses and the magic bullshit or whatever, but twilight...i heard an interview with that author woman and she said "i really didn't know much about vampires, but the characters i created basically fit in with vampires so i used that" and i got furiously angry.

while I realize that True Blood and Twilight are both vampire shows and must ALWAYS inevitably be compared in EVERY FREAKIN REVIEW, the quality of twilight is SO SO SO SO SOOOOOO MUCH LOWER than TB! Twilight is just "abstinence porn", which is the worst and obviously most boring kind, while TB (just as infectious as tuberculosis...) teases you and then actually delivers with steamy sex scenes. Twilight is SO FULL OF CHEESE, not to mention HORRIBLE acting/plot/dialogue.

Also, vampires being boyfriends are more interesting than vampires being simply bloodsuckers. True Blood mixes bloodsucking with love, which is at least a somewhat original idea.

oh, and Stephen Moyer (vampire BILLLL) is SO MUCH HOTTER than that premature Cullen scum. Have you SEEN him in Harry Potter? Nobody thought he was hot THEN. HE IS SO GROSS, ew.
