True Blood: The Second Season is "Beyond Amazing" (And, Perhaps, Full Of, Uhh, Bloody Cheese)

from BuddyTV

I'm checking my watch and, well, we have ten days before True Blood. Wheee, I say. There's another interview with Stephen Moyer from the folks at E!, and from the looks of it, it'll seem that the second season will be oozing--no pun intended--with hot loving. Perhaps you can throw the emphasis on hot, judging from the way Alan Ball made things, but this time you can expect to throw the emphasis on the love part. Of course, it doesn't hurt that Stephen is actually hooking up with Anna Paquin...

To sum up the new season, then, which will premiere on June 14, he can simply say this: "[It's] beyond amazing ... more than anybody imagined. Honestly, I came out of the screening the other day with my jaw on the floor. And I've read it, you know."

Bill's storyline? "There's no getting away from the fact that Bill is a vampire ... [but] he wishes not for a human life, but for a moral life. It's not that he doesn't want to feed on blood, it's that he doesn't want it to involve killing--but in his first season he kills as many people as the murderer ... He's torn. He's not going to do it just for the sake of it. But if somebody hurts him or hurts his family or hurts his loved one ... they're history."

And for him and Eric? "Certainly in this season there is a moral hierarchy ... There are things you do and things you don't and if you do something within the vampire world that is f--ed up and against your fellow vamp, you are going to suffer for that. I kind of like that idea that, you know, anything goes, but if you cross a line, you're going to suffer for it. Whether Eric is adhering to those vampire morals is important."
