True Blood Wraps Up the Third Successful Season

True Blood has become one of HBO's hit shows in the recent years, following the pop culture trend of vampires. The series is based off the novel series written by Charlaine Harris, taking parts of each book and making it into an addicting television series. As each season airs, the views and ratings increase just as rapidly. With an episode titled Hitting the Ground, airing August 3, 2010, the series hit an all time high with 5.236 million viewers. With the success of this season, season 4 of True Blood is set to  debut during the summer 2011 line up. The series airs 12 episodes per season, which never seems to be enough for its viewers.

The finale of season 3 aired on September 12, 2010, leaving viewers on the edge of their seats as always.   Each season the show seems to introduce a new mythical creature, adding them to the already diverse character cast. The main characters consist of vampires, werewolves, fairies, shape shifters, werepanthers, witches, and who knows what else. The big announcement during season 3 is the realization that the main character Sookie Stakehouse (Anna Paquin) is discovered to be a fairy. Tied into the plot, you discover that when vampires drink fairy blood, it allows them to enjoy the sunlight and walk during the day, which to them is the greatest downfall of the vampire lifestyle. Sookie is said to be one of the few fairies left in the world, for vampires always drain their blood entirely.
