Speaking of Buffy and Joss Whedon, or, well, vampires, the new marketing campaign for HBO's Alan Ball drama True Blood are all over town. I don't know what it says about my susceptibility to vampirism, but they make me laugh every single time.
And like any good vamp joke they've got a healthy dose of sexual innuendo going for them, too:
True Blood will be on HBO in September, and we hear that (like Buffy and others before it) there'll be both an easy parallel drawn between fear-of-fangs and the old-fashioned fear-of-fags and at least one regular queer vamp for us to follow. From the shadows. With a cross tucked in our man-purse.
