HBO Could Draw True Blood Online

There may be no TV channel better suited to offering an online version than Time Warner's premium cable network known for series like "True Blood" and "The Sopranos," as well as movies. It even has the marketing slogan to suit: "It's not TV. It's HBO."
Yet it is Netflix that is establishing itself as the online movie and TV show subscription service, this week reporting its subscriber count had reached 16.9 million. At this rate, Netflix could pass HBO rivals Showtime and Starz this quarter and near HBO's 29 million subscriber count

Radcliffe turns vampire for The Simpsons

Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe turned into a vampire to spoof the Twilight movie series in a Halloween special episode of The Simpsons.

In the spooky episode, part of animated TV show's annual Halloween 'Treehouse of Horror' series, the 21-year-old actor plays a mysterious youngster called Edmund, a reference to Robert Pattinson's role Edward in Twilight, reported Contactmusic.

Edmund falls in love with Lisa but his vampire ways are said to be foiled when he takes a bite out of Simpsons patriarch Homer and becomes ill from the large amounts of cholesterol in his blood.

The episode is set to air in the US in the coming weeks as part of the Halloween holiday at the end of the month.

Season 4 casting spoiler for Marne/Hallow

We've just learnt that True Blood are looking for a new series regular called Marnie who is taken over by a witch.

Filming starts on 1st December for the new season.

Hallow, and she was almost six feet tall, with short brown hair and a black design painted on her face.

Pg 91 "Marnie Stonebrook, Mark Stonebrook," he said. I nodded to each of them. Hallow, indeed, I thought, half-amused. "Hallow" was just a tad more spiritual than "Marnie." "They're looking for this guy," Sam said, indicating the poster. "You know him?"

Trammell unsure of 'True Blood' romance

True Blood star Sam Trammell has admitted that he doesn't know whether Sam's relationship with Bill will develop in the fourth season.

In one episode of the show, Sam had an erotic dream about Bill (Stephen Moyer).

However, Trammell told E! Online that he does not know if the connection will be explored any further.

"Probably episode one," he joked. "Are we really going to do it or are we going to puss out? Who knows? I still have vampire blood in me so anything could happen."

Trammell added that the cast will begin shooting the fourth season some time next month.

Charlaine Harris included on Entertainment Weekly list of '10 Power Authors'

Entertainment Weekly’s October 15, 2010 issue includes Nora Roberts on its list of "10 Power Authors by the Numbers."  The article accompanies the magazine’s cover story, “50 Most Powerful Entertainers of 2010.”
In addition to Roberts, the Entertainment Weekly (EW) list cites her colleagues Charlaine Harris, J.K. Rowling, Glenn Beck, Malcolm Gladwell, Stieg Larsson, Stephen King,  Stephenie Meyer, Janet Evanovich and James Patterson.
EW points out that 27 books by Nora Roberts are sold every minute. Noting this fact on its website, Roberts’ Penguin Group (USA) publishers add that Roberts’ next book Happy Ever After, will be released next month. This work will conclude the author's Bride Quartet.
Nora Roberts is, of course, no stranger to lists of top performers. In 2009 the New Yorker hailed her as “America’s Most Popular Novelist.” In 2007, she was included in Time magazine’s list of the “100 Most Influential People.” She also appeared on Forbes’ list of the “100 Most Influential Celebrities” for both 2004 and 2005.
The Penguin Group's website also recognizes a second Penguin author whose name appears on the EW list – Charlaine Harris.  EW points out that Harris is the only author who has ever had nine titles on the New York Times bestseller list simultaneously.
Harris is the author of the Sookie Stackhouse mysteries, which provide the basis for the hit HBO television series, True Blood, and the Harper Connelly mysteries, which may soon appear as a CBS series. Penguin refers readers to Death's Excellent Vacation, Harris’s most recent work, a short story collection she and Toni L. P. Kelner co-edited.

* Nosferatu — In this 1922 German expressionist film, Max Schreck, in his role as Count Orlok, sets the standard for all vampires and Count Draculas to follow. The film was ranked 21st in Empire magazine's 100 Best Films of World Cinema in 2010.
* Christopher Lee — Long before he was Sauronfixed in the "Lord of The Rings" trilogy and Count Dooku in Star Wars, Mr. Lee was the quintessential Dracula, making his first of seven films as Dracula for Hammer Horror films in 1958.

Sam Trammell, Kristin Bauer, Rutina Wesley True Blood Interviews

You know why I love covering the SCREAM Awards every year? I'll tell you why. It's because I get to talk to actors who I don't normally see at film premieres. Not all the celebs hit the red carpet at the 5th annual celebration of genres that don't normally get awards recognition, but the ones who did were fun to talk to - though hard to hear with fans screaming just a few feet away.

This issue tells the story of Sam’s attack on the evil spirit that proves deadly for the local population, and it ends with him having to recount his most shameful memory... a secret powerful enough to re-energize the wounded spirit.
