Don't Get Too Excited... Nerds -- Comic-Con 09

Comic-Con 2009. The event starts today, July 23 and continues through July 26. My interests in this nerdfest are many, and most of those come from the fact that the True Blood cast will be in attendance (True Blood-related events listed here). Yes, I just indirectedly admitted I was a nerd. There will be a panel discussion for True Blood on this Saturday, July 25. Now, those of us who cannot fly to the west coast for in person encounters must wait until the panel discussions and highlights are posted on YouTube. Luckily, G4 will be doing a live broadcast from Comic-Con for 5 hours, starting at 2 p.m. EST. So, we might get a little preview of some True Blood buzz! The panel begins at 5:15 p.m., so that would be a good time to tune in. Otherwise, it's a waiting game for YouTube posters. (I'll link to any panel videos once they're up.) Below is part one of many of a really shaky video of the True Blood panel from last year's Comic-Con. I like it. So should you.
