Kevin Alejandro talks about going from 'Southland' cop to 'True Blood' vamp

Where you know Kevin Alejandro from is a kind of Rorschach Test for your TV viewing habits: To you, he may be Hilda’s late husband Santos on Ugly Betty, or Celia’s passive-aggressive Mexican kidnapper on Weeds, or gangland police detective Nate Moretta on Southland. And now he’s juggling two cable favorites with TNT rebooting the formerly-on-NBC Southland and HBO’s True Blood hiring him as a new love interest for blood dealer/short-order cook/male prostitute Lafayette. He called us from the set of the steamy vampire drama — which returns for season 3 this summer — to chat about fighting gang warfare (which comes to a head on tonight’s Southland, at 10 p.m. on TNT) and wooing Bon Temps’ vampiest multitasker.

I've never watched any of those shows so I'm not familiar with him at all. So someone new to me, like almost everyone in the show has been. I'd seen the actors who played Andy (excuse me, Det. Bellefleur), the sheriff and Maryann before. I think that's it.

actresses in this seasons show

We haven't seen most of those in the show, have we? Are you just using your imagination and the descriptions from the books? Maybe Dallas will post a picture of them when you are done.

Sharon what i do is take the descri-
ptions and my imagination and try to
picture as to what they would look
like.I will try and get my husband
to make a picture of them and send it to Dallas,will see if he can in
a day or two,i just love doing them,

mer ,maybe and a few out of town.
