It's a TV show on HBO about the prejudice of Vampires in the normal world among other things set in the fictional town of Bon Temps Louisiana. It's main Character is Sookie Stackhouse, who is a human waitress who can listen to people's thoughts. She meets a Vampire named Bill, and they become "Friends". Vampires had just come out into the world and they now have some of the same rights as humans, and a synthetic drink called "Tru Blood" is what they drink, hence the title of the show. The first season revolves around murders in the town and other characters along with Sookie and Bill such as Sookie's brother, best friend, boss, and such. Its a good show, but can be really mature just so you know. I hope that answers your question.

True Blood is based on the Southern Vampire Series (or the Sookie Stackhouse Novels as most call them) written by Charlaine Harris. The show/novels are set in a world where vampires have come "out of the closet" and exposed themselves to the mainstream creating an uproar and an entirely new form of prejudice from regular people who fear and hate them.
Sookie Stackhouse is a naturally 'telepathic' waitress in a small louisiana town and when they get their first vampire (Bill Compton) she instantly connects and identifies with him, since she is different herself. As the two grow closer she gets more sucked into the darker side of the vampire society and because of her "gift" it makes her the object of facination from all kinds of different creatures both good and bad. The show follows the adventures she and her friends experienced in the books.
