More “True Blood” videos count down the days until the Season 5 premiere

Last Updated on July 23, 2021

Just last night I was complaining to a couple friends that TV pretty much sucks right now. Several of my favorite shows just capped off their seasons and now I’ve got nothing until “Dexter” and “The Walking Dead.” Well aside from SyFy’s “Eureka.” But then one of my friends was quick to point out “True Blood’s” newest season kicks off this weekend. To that I just shrugged.

Sue me but I’m just not into “True Blood” right now. Maybe once the whole thing runs it’s course I’ll revisit it but frankly it doesn’t do much for me. I know a lot of you out there dig the hell out of this shite though so that’s why today I’ve come to you with three more videos to help get you stoked for the Season 5 premiere!

Now the three videos come from various sources at YouTube and feature a couple ‘Countdown’ promos as well as a look at Episode 1 of Season 5. Nice! So scroll on down and tap those to get even more excited for this weekend’s return of “True Blood!”

Thanks to a Japanese scientist’s invention of synthetic blood, vampires have progressed from legendary monsters to fellow citizens overnight. And while humans have been safely removed from the menu, many remain apprehensive about these creatures “coming out of the coffin.” Religious leaders and government officials around the world have chosen their sides, but in the small Louisiana town of Bon Temps, the jury is still out.

Anna Paquin, Stephen Moyer, Sam Trammell, Ryan Kwanten, Rutina Wesley, Nelsan Ellis, Alexander Skarsgard, Deborah Ann Woll, Camilla Luddington, Janina Gavankar, Jacob Hopkins, Carolyn Hennesy, Christopher Meloni, Scott Foley, Peter Mensah, Christopher Heyerdahl, Lucy Griffiths, Dale Dickey, Louis Herthum, Valentina Cervi and Kelly Overton are all set to appear in “True Blood” Season 5, which kicks off this Sunday on HBO!
