'True Blood': Bad Times in Bon Temps

Conflict resolution is the theme of the week in Bon Temps. There are the bad breakup dust-ups—Hoyt calling Jessica a monster, werewolves and shifters fighting because alpha Marcus doesn't understand the concept of moving on—but the most interesting examples of successful and failed conflict resolution are with the two unhappy ghosts come back to get revenge/justice/babies. While one restless spirit is busy executing a massacre at a Living-Dead Tolerance meeting (shouldn't it be the Living-Dead Alliance?), another is finding a peaceful conclusion to her sorrows.
Antonia is practically becoming a vampire herself, hitting almost every point on the checklist of vampire crimes she listed off in her debut: She is walking around despite being long dead, has supernatural powers, is holding innocents captive, is controlling the actions of others, has killed, and intends to kill more. Her thirst is for revenge rather than blood, but the distinction is probably not very soothing to her victims, and the people she has sworn to protect are meanwhile burning their hands into giant lumps of blisters trying to escape her Moon Goddess Emporium prison.

Actor Ryan Kwanten on ‘Griff the Invisible’ Versus ‘True Blood’

How important to you is it to balance your work on “True Blood” with projects like “Griff the Invisible,” that are created in or that shoot in your native Australia?
I’ve been very fortunate in the last couple of years, where two of the better scripts that I’ve read happened to be Australian scripts by Australian writers and directors. And that is now very much sort of an important part of my hiatus period – in the five months I get off, I’ll at least do one film that’s based in Australia now. Because there really are some great filmmakers down there, and some really good stories to tell.
Does working on a show like “True Blood” which has fewer episodes maybe than a network show give you more time to pursue these film projects?
The short answer is yes. I feel very fortunate to have landed the role, and to be on that network, because they do phenomenal stuff. They refuse to rest on their laurels, I feel, in terms of each season there’s a progression and it’s getting stronger and stronger, and outside of that it’s really changed my life. It’s taken my career to a whole other level.
Because “True Blood” is so consistently unpredictable, does it continue to surprise or challenge you, or have you sort of adjusted to its twists and turns and they’ve become a natural or comfortable progression?
No. Alan Ball does a very TV-savvy version of the books, so even if you are phenomenally well-researched in knowing what happens in the books, that doesn’t necessarily parlay into knowing what’s going to happen in our series. There’s been more than a fair share of things that have been different. This season is no different; my character is supposed to turn into a were-panther this season, but we’ll see what happens with that. He might be lucky to survive the season, so we’ll see.

Kristin Bauer van Straten Exclusive Interview TRUE BLOOD

On the HBO vampire series True Blood, actress Kristin Bauer van Straten plays fan favorite character Pam. As the offspring and primary aide of Eric Northman (Alexander Skarsgard), her lethal instinct and keen fashion sense have made her a force to be reckoned with, and one of the most quoted characters on the show. With her Maker currently suffering from amnesia and her face rotting with no sign of repair, thanks to some nasty spells from a witch coven, Season 4 has had some crazy twists and turns for Pam, which are sure to get even crazier, as things head toward the season finale.
During a recent exclusive phone interview with Collider, Kristin Bauer van Straten talked about following her instincts when it comes to playing Pam, what it’s like to be remembered for her great one-liners rather than the nude scenes that much of the other cast has been known to do, how she still hasn’t gotten completely used to talking with the fangs, how much fun it’s been to explore a whole new side to Pam and her relationship with Eric, and how she can’t wait to get to work on Season 5 and learn about her character’s genesis in becoming a vampire. Check out what she had to say after the jump:

'True Blood' Eric Vs. Bill: Sookie Makes a Choice Sookie and Eric's romance has been heating up, but don't count Bill out yet.

Vampire blood-driven dreams have been an effective narrative tool in HBO’s True Blood.

And Sunday’s episode gave viewers another example of that when Sookie (Anna Paquin) had to drink Bill’s (Stephen Moyer) blood to survive the gun shot that hit her during last episode’s Witch War II.

As a result, Sookie had a very telling dream that brought Eric (Alexander Skarsgard) and Bill together for a talk. And wearing red lingerie doesn’t hurt when trying to plead one’s case to two men, either. What unraveled was Sookie’s decision that she loved both men and would like to find a way for them to be OK with that, as well. Ah, dreams. That would never fly in the real world, but it does reveal where Sookie’s mind is when it comes to the two men. Or does it?

Loyola University grad Brian Treitler leaves his mark on 'True Blood'

Chalmette native Brian Treitler left New Orleans after college and moved to Los Angeles to pursue an acting career.
It was a big, bold move back in 1999. A Brother Martin and Loyola University graduate, Treitler had one friend in L.A. with whom he could couch-surf until he got settled. She moved to Texas after two weeks.
“It was kind of scary at first,” he said. “Twelve years later, it’s a whole other ballgame.”
Tonight (August 21), Treitler makes the second of three appearances this season on the HBO smash “True Blood.”
It’s a small role, one of many he’s had on “Gilmore Girls,” “Malcolm in the Middle,” “Torchwood,” “Big Love” and other series.
But it’s memorable. Treitler plays a kind of vampire-stalking Bon Temps paparazzi who fuels a website with ambush videos of fanger bloodlust in action.

Obama a fan of Louisiana Mysteries ?? " The Bayou Trilogy " on his vacation reading list !

The New York Times this morning ran an article entitled "Obama Summer Reading List Leans Toward Fiction " HERE and it talked about what books President Obama had taken with him on his vacation and I found his choice of  " The Bayou Trilogy " an interesting choice and wondered if he loves Louisiana based mysteries,  if he might be a fan of True Blood ? Or maybe Michelle is?  Ha!

Starred Review. Collected in a single volume for the first time, Woodrell's three stellar novels featuring Det. Rene Shade, an ex-boxer turned cop, provide entrée into the Louisiana swamp town of Saint Bruno, a place where "tempers went on the prowl and relief was driving a hard bargain." Woodrell (Winter's Bone) injects Shade's life and various cases with both humor and brutal violence. In Bright Lights (1986), the investigation into a city councilman's murder mushrooms into a corruption scandal, with Shade feeling pressure from above for a quick—and predetermined—result. Muscle for the Wing (1988) finds Shade up against a gang of ex-cons, hell-bent on wrestling control of Saint Bruno's less-than-legal action. Shade and his two brothers—bar owner Tip and district attorney Francois—are reunited with their long-absent paterfamilias, John X., in The Ones You Do (1992), in which John X. returns to Saint Bruno with a 10-year-old daughter and a killer on his trail. There's poetry in Woodrell's mayhem, each novel—and scene—full of gritty and memorable Cajun details.

True Blood Recipe of the week: Big Patty's 7 Layer Jello Pie

Let's flash back to Season 1 and Sookie & Sam's trip to the Big Patty's pie shop. The waitress,  Harley gave us a hilarious list of pies ...
Have a cool slice of this ...

Big Patty's 7 Layer Jello Pie

This is a fun, easy to make snack that everyone in the family will love.

To make, you will need:Four 6oz packages of Jello (I prefer red, green, yellow, and orange)13x9x2 pan or pyrex dish For white layers in between the colored layers:

2 packages of plain gelatin

Four 1/2 cup of cold water (one 1/2 cup for each pack of Jello)

2 cups of sour cream

2 cups of milk

4 cups hot water (one cup for each pack of Jello)

1 cup sugar

2 tsp. vanilla

To Make:

1) Dissolve your first color jello into 1 cup of boiling water, add 1/2 cup cold water, then pour into your dish.

2) Dissolve both envelopes of unflavored gelatin into a 1/2 cup of boiling water.

3) In a large saucepan brink milk to boil.

4) Remove pan of milk from heat and add sugar, mixing until dissolved.

5) Add the dissolved unflavored gelatin into the milk and sugar mix.

6) In a mixer, mix with sour cream and vanilla. Mix until even, then set aside to let cool.

7) Once the first layer is set, pour 1 1/2 cups of the white layer over the first layer of Jello.

8) Once the white layer sets and becomes sticky to touch, repeat step one with another layer of Jello.

9) Repeat steps 1 and 7 until you finish the fourth layer of Jello. Place into fridge and let chill for 2 hours.

10) Slice the Jello into 2 x 1 inch bars and enjoy!

** in other recipes you can also do this with 4 different flavors of jello too...

EW drops a Bill and Sookie scene hint

 Did we always have so many people screening TB episodes so late in the season ? what's upi with this ? I know everyone gets screener dvds of the first 3 eps but why do so many folks know whats the scenes will be in Ep9 ?

Any good Bill/Sookie scenes coming up? ~ Chris
All I can say is that you will like the scene near the beginning of Sunday’s episode very very much. Like, VERY much. And to bookend your joy, there’s a moment at the end where Sookie makes a grand gesture of — what some could say — are lingering feelings. Others might just say girl likes drama!
