What can I be looking forward to between Eric & Sookie in season 4 of True Blood? — @Leandi_Cameron
Whatever is in store for the painfully attractive pair, count on a hunky (probably shirtless) werewolf being in the way. Joe Manganiello told us at the Producers Build Awards: “Wherever Sookie goes, Alcide is not going to be that far behind. He is very protective of her in the way that dogs are protective of their owners. Even tiny dogs will bark and stand up to whoever or whatever is threatening their master despite how tiny they are compared to the tormentor. That’s the same theory at the heart of Alcide. Fortunately he is a bit bigger than a purse dog and his bark and bite are pretty ferocious.

Sookie Stackhouse : Top Ten Most Inspirational Characters

This week's topic is Top Ten Most Inspirational Characters

10. Sookie Stackhouse from the Sookie Stackhouse Series: I love her. She has been through A LOT of crap. But she always bounces back. Also, I agree that it would suck to read people's minds, my own is effed up enough as it is thank you. So I admire her for dealing with that and overcoming it to a certain degree.

9. Katniss Everdeen from the Hunger Games Series: How could I not include her? I wouldn't survive one minute in the Hunger Games I'll tell you that much.

8.  Jonas from The Giver: Although I just read this book Jonas is already one of my favorite characters. He learns and grows so much and instead of running away from all the new knowledge he faces it head on and tries to find a way to change society even though he is only one 12 year old kid.

"The Witches Reign” with Kevin Alejandro

From interview


Changing gears a little, can we expect Jesus Velazquez to be back to True Blood next season?
Absolutely! Jesus is definitely back. It’s kind of a big season for myself, as well. I’m a witch and this is the season of the witches. I think it’s called the Witches Reign. You’ll see a lot of me. We pick up where we leave off with that true True Blood style. It’s sexy, mysterious, and all kinds of fun.
I’m really fortunate. I’m having a great year. I have two really great, amazing shows that I’m part of, you know, Southland and True Blood. Fortunately, I get to do both of them, and not a lot of people get to do that.

True Blood Season 4 in production : Watching the Filming of “True Blood”

Last Wednesday evening I got a text from the owner of POP Champagne & Dessert Bar – my very favorite restaurant and the spot where the Grim Cheaper and I held the rehearsal dinner for our wedding last August – alerting me to the fact that the hit HBO television series True Blood would be filming at his eatery the following evening beginning at 9 p.m.  He invited me to come down to watch and even though I’ve never seen even one episode of the vampire series, I was beyond excited!  I immediately called up Mike, from MovieShotsLA, and asked him to join me as True Blood is his very favorite show.  So, the next night at around 8 p.m. the two of us headed out to POP and were floored to see those ubiquitous yellow filming signs that I so love on the streets surrounding the restaurant.

Being Human : Relocated to America, Still Bloodthirsty

The popular British series “Being Human,” about a werewolf, a vampire and a ghost sharing a run-down house in Bristol, isn’t great television, and its use of scary monsters as a metaphor for adolescent (or in this case, 20-something) alienation has been old hat for well over a decade. (Yes, “Buffy” was that long ago.)

But it has energy, and interesting characters, and a pulpy momentum that keeps you engaged in its kitchen-sink drama meets Bram Stoker story lines. Which means that it looks like the work of Shakespeare — or, more to the point, Mike Leigh — when compared with the bland, airbrushed American version of “Being Human” that begins Monday night on Syfy.

Jace Everett grateful for True Blood

HBO saved Jace Everett’s career, and he is in no way shy about admitting that.
“My career was out on cinderblocks in the front yard when [True Blood] happened,” Everett, a Nashville-based singer-songwriter, said.
Everett’s song “Bad Things” carries the opening credits of the HBO hit show that stars Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer.
For Everett, “True Blood” has done more than give him airtime.
 “It gave me confidence,” he said. That confidence began before the show even aired, influencing his 2009 album “Red Revelations.”
“We knew that “True Blood” was going to happen, so [with “Red Revelations”] we did that swampy sound,” Everett said. “I love that kind of music.”
It’s important to note Everett’s love for the music he is able to create today. He hasn’t always had that luxury
