New "Blood Work" video blog: Taking a bite out of "True Blood"

You may already know that I'm a bit of a horror nut. And so I thought that the much-anticipated True Blood vampire series (which premiered last night on HBO) would be a good opportunity for me to jump on this "vlog" bandwagon that everyone's all hopped-up about.

So behold our latest vlog series, Blood Work. Every week I'll discuss the ins and outs (and ins and outs) of the racy and decidedly queer new vampire series with a special horror-related guest.

In our first episode, indie horror writer/director/actor Alan Rowe Kelly joins me to discuss the premiere ep. We play "Fang, Marry or Kill?" with the show's main characters, talk about the underlying social metaphors, and give our completely batpoo theories on what might be coming down the line.

Check it out after the break! And chime in below with your own thoughts on the show or on the vlog - but if you have read the books or otherwise know what's coming, please be sure to give ample SPOILER warning in your comments or head on over to the Spoiler Forum to discuss in more detail. Thanks!
