LOL! I watched the True Blood pilot the other day, and while I enjoyed it, "cute" isn't exactly the word I'd use to describe it. I thought the plot and exposition were rather well-handed, and the dialogue was good. Acting was pretty terrific, too. I agree with your potential comment, too. I feel this show hasn't flexed enough muscles to show what it can really do, but I'm pretty excited to see just what that max potential is. There is this wonderful interview with Alan Ball about the creative process of the show, that actually got me to watch it. It's audio streamed and is about 40 minutes long - he also talks about 'Towelhead,' which I'm also psyched to see. I can link you if you want.
