AMC+.Bon Temps, La.: home to all manner of vampires, werewolves, a bar owner who can shape-shift into a dog, a waitress who is part fairy and that memorable season with the were-panthers. “True Blood” originally aired on HBO from 2008-2014, starring Anna Paquin, her now-husband Stephen Moyer, Alexander Skarsgard, Sam Trammell, Ryan Kwanten, the late Nelsan Ellis, and Joe Manganiello. The ensemble drama was often messy — both literally, with blood and guts — and figuratively, with inconsistent writing.

Australian soaps have undeniably produced some international superstars over the years.Two of the biggest successes are clearly Neighbours alumni Kylie Minogue (who played Charlene) – the highest-selling Australian recording artist of all time, with more than 80 million albums sold worldwide – and Margot Robbie (Donna), star of the runaway movie success Barbie, that's broken 17 box office records to date. But other notable stars who've gone from Aussie soapland to bigger things include Home and Away's Ryan Kwanten (who played Vinnie), Isla Fisher (Shannon) and Chris Hemsworth (Kim) as well as Neighbours' Jason Donovan (Scott), Guy Pearce (Mike) and Jesse Spencer (Billy).

Vinnie Patterson was Home and Away's red Speedo-clad lifeguard – a loveable rogue who, at various time, was also a part-time stripper and high school student. Other storylines saw Vinnie diagnosed with testicular cancer and become a children's entertainter – Vin-Vin the clown – while he also enjoyed one of the soap's most popular romances with Leah. Played by Ryan Kwanten from 1997 to 2002, poor Vinnie eventually ended up in prison for fraud when he was framed by a business partner, before soap bosses finally killed off when his character – now under witness protection – when he was said to have died in a farming accident.
