We’ve had our Sherlock Holmes-style deerstalkers on and been investigating when HBO’s fantastic vampire drama series True Blood is coming to UK shores. The good news is that we can confirm that it’s been snapped up by the ace digital channel FX. The bad news is we’ve just learned that it’s not scheduled to air until next summer – so all you blood-thirsty fans out there are in for a bit of a wait. Thankfully, there’s plenty of great new US drama to keep us going until then, and we’ll keep you updated on all things True Blood-related until then.

NOOOOOOOO
NOT FX
I DONT HAVE FX
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Sorry Juliette, ’tis true! Though seeing as how ITV1 show Dexter after FX have screened it, perhaps there’s a chance they’ll pick up True Blood as well…? We should start a letter-writing campaign to get this ace series the recognition it deserves!
Superb news for anyone who has caught a snippet of this great series – Channel 4 have also got the rights to show it, so will be putting it on sometime later this year.
good stuff for all those who don’t have FX,especially as ITV never do a good job with their US shows.
True Blood is a great show and Stephen Moyer shines in this series and everybody believes this is his breakthrough performance. His presence in the show is truly mesmerizing.

True Blood is fantastic. Can’t wait for it to come to the UK. I watched it over in Canada last year and it is a brilliant show.
Probably the best TV series out there! Can’t wait for series 2 in June!
Thanks for this. Very useful information
when and what time is ‘true blood’ during the week
NO! Seriously next summer! Ive seen like one episode and im hooked, i want to see it now.
Worry not, Nadine. When we first wrote about True Blood – a year ago now – it wasn’t due until next summer. However, a year has now passed…
And True Blood is launching on FX on Friday 17th July at 10.00pm. 2009!
If you’re not fortunate enough to have FX, then you’ll have to wait a little longer. Channel 4 are aiming to show it in October!
I really hope true blood will be aired on channel 4 in october. I absolutely love it !!
just watched the first series on disc absolutly brilliant goto amazon buy it
hmmm…wen does the first episode air on FX ?
Friday 17 July at 10pm
I absaloutly love True Blood,
i Downloaded all Series 1, hehe!
it’s brill, you’s guy sshould all watch it
You can watch it online anyway…its soooo good!!!
Well my sister record for me the programs and send that to me i am in the season 2 today it plays the last episode for season 2 i can’t wait so see what happen,
True Blood comes to Channel 4 this Wednesday at 10pm starring Brentwood Theatre’s sexy Patron, Stephen Moyer and new fiance Anna Paquin.
missed an episode of true blood check out my site for seasons 1 and 2
What day and time is True Blood on every week on Channel 4?
it’s been airing on Wednesdays at 10pm – it finishes soon though, and we haven’t heard yet whether they will air it again after that.
could nt wait till nxt week to watch finale episode .went and got season 2 absolutly fantastic im hooked !!!!!! you think season 1 s good wait till u c season 2 brilllliant stuff.carn t wait for more to come !!!!!.
True blood season 2 is airing in the summer of 2010 on channel 4 for anyone who doesnt hav fx.
its airaing on fx on the 26th of feb not september
I don’t have FX either, when I found out it wasn’t on E4 anymore, I was upset, it’s on its 3rd episode now and I haven’t been able to watch one, so I have to wait so patiently, I really want to watch it! Fingers crossed it comes to ITV or Channel 4!
x
ah im a bit confused so is series two out this ummer on channel 4 need to see it lol as read all the books
Cannot believe that the produers of trueblood would put season 1 on channel 4 then put season 2 on fx. Wat is the point? So now we have to wait months if ye don’t have fx.
When are we getting season 3 in the UK?
Season 3 airs in the US from June 13th and there’s so far been a 9-10month gap between airdates so I’d speculate Season 3 will hit FX around Feb-March 2011 and then Channel 4 the Summer of 2011. If you can’t wait that long the DVD and Blu-ray of Season 2 comes out on Monday
