If you’re the reading type, the series of books by Charlaine Harris..the same books True Blood was based on..although they changed the stories quite a bit and left out some characters. One such character was “Bubba” who was, apparently, “turned” by a technician (who was a big fan) in the morgue when his body was brought in….unfortunately..the change to vampire left “Bubba” a little light in the brain box..but sweet!
Lots of funny situations throughout the series because “Bubba” (everyone is ALWAYS cautioned to never use his “other name” as it gets him “real upset!”!

He said “No, I just always have to wonder about the sanity of someone willing to turn their back on 72 kids at a time.”
