Did anyone else notice the Red Wolf neon, in Fangtasia? That beer was made by Anheuser-Busch but was discontinued years ago. Hrmmm.....
 


This was both a pretty drama filled one and funny too :P

HBO must like Alexander Skarsgard (the guy who played Eric) he was in Generation Kill as well.

He didn't have much presence in the role, unfortunately. Maybe he'll step up to the plate in later appearances . . . he certainly has a talented actor-father.
 

Yeah great ep that balanced the comedy and drama elements very well. And thankfully no cliffhanger for the end of this.

And boy nice dress Anna!
 




It is interesting enough, although oddly it's mostly about elements that have nothing to do with vampires. The vampire culture itself is portrayed in a way that's very trite: you've got your degenerate feral vamps, your decadent snob vamps, and your brooding Morrisey vamps, and I think we've all seen those portrayals many times before. Our heroic vampire, Bill, has yet to be given anything to do. He actually comes across as a minor supporting character at this point.

And the stuff he spoke was not Cambodian; it was Swedish.

"Our little zoo is starting to grow."
"I know."

Surprised me a little at first when I had my head all in English-mode and hearing Swedish, so I had to rewind to hear what he said.
