True Blood fans on X: build this knot

True Blood ran on HBO from 2008 to 2014, and the vampire drama still has a fan community that rewatches, recaps and argues about it. Fans on X talk about rewatches, cast news, fan art and how the show compares with the book series it was based on.

"True Blood" is also an ordinary phrase, so the knot removes blood-donation and blood-type posts. Replies stay visible here because fan discussion mostly happens in reply threads. Add the fans you talk with as members to follow rewatch threads as they happen.

Open in the builder and add members

Who to add as members

Rewatch hosts, fan artists, podcast accounts that cover the show, and the friends you rewatch with. We don't list anyone by name: pick the people you already read, so the knot reflects your corner of the topic.

Once you add members, the builder makes three more feeds: everything they post, their posts on this topic, and replies sent to them.

Tips for this knot

  • Use the Images filter to see fan art and screenshots only.
  • Spoilers are fair game for a show this old, but say so when you share the knot with new viewers.
  • If you run a rewatch, give it its own hashtag and plan it with the hashtag planner.

Setting up the X List

  1. Open Lists from your profile menu and create a list called True Blood Fans.
  2. Keep it public if you want others to follow it, or make it private for your own reading.
  3. Add members from the list editor or from each profile's menu.
  4. Pin it so it shows up as a tab on Home.
