After watching five episodes, I can say True Blood stands out as one of the strongest new series in an uncertain fall.

True Blood is a sexy affair that sets up an entirely believable world where humans and vampires co-exist. It's a soap, to be sure, but a soap with an eye for social commentary.

In Ball's droll, neo-gothic "True Blood," the vampire community isn't willing to roll over and accept our pity.

Graphically sexy and scary, and often wildly funny, True Blood turns Charlaine Harris' rollicking mystery novels into a broadly entertaining, deliciously twisted slice of modern Southern Gothic.

Appetizingly pulpy and yet not at all crass, the series presents a new angle on the phenomenon of shows-so-bad-that-they're-good: It sucks hard and thus plays very well.

True Blood is a show with plenty of bite.
