The Cast of 'True Blood' at PaleyFest 2011
So you're a fan of True Blood, the HBO drama about vampires, werewolves and other supernatural oddities, but can't want until June for juicy tidbits on the new season. Lucky for you the Paley Center for the Media will host the entire cast, as well as show creator Alan Ball, as part of PaleyFest 2011. Each season the show seems to one-up itself with its interesting additions of less than humanly characters. Last year there were werewolves and this year fans can expect witches to play a major role. Who knows, now that Charlie Sheen's out of work, maybe we can expect to see him in season five. All he'd have to do is play himself.
Just The Facts
What: Cast of True Blood, and show creator Alan Ball
Where: Saban Theatre; 8440 Wilshire Blvd., Beverly Hills, CA 90211
When: Saturday, March 5th at 7pm

HBO Inside True Blood :The Concept Meeting
I just don't get this blog... I sure hope it gets better
by Gianna Sobol
THE MEETING: The Concept Meeting
WHERE IT TAKES PLACE: True Blood conference room
WHO ATTENDS: Alan Ball, Gregg Fienberg, the writer and director of each episode, and all department heads (costume designer, stunt coordinator, extras casting, etc)
WHAT IT’S ABOUT (according to 1st Assistant Director Sunday Stevens): "The concept meeting, led by the 1st Assistant Director, is the first meeting that brings all the department heads together. We go through the script to discuss the different elements in each scene that have to be addressed. For example, if we have an action scene with a panther, we have to discuss stunts, animal wrangling, make-up effects and visual effects to figure out how to make the sequence work on the day we shoot it. This is a chance for each department head to figure out who should be doing what and how they can go about doing that. It is essentially the beginning of prep for the department heads."

Lauren Bowles Interview-Hall Pass and True Blood
Lauren Bowles reunites with the filmmaking Farrelly Brothers for the R-rated comedy Hall Pass, and at the movie's world premiere Bowles talked about the brothers and about another project she's working on: the fourth season of True Blood.
While Bowles couldn't reveal anything about what's going on the set, she did talk about her True Blood co-stars. "My answer is always when I'm asked about that, it's those pat answers that when I see other people give I'm like, 'Oh shut up! They're not all nice.' But they really are. It's like I can't tell you what a dream job it is. It's the cast, the crew, it all starts with Alan of course, but it really is just a dream job. In fact, my first day in the make-up...you get all the good scuttlebutt from like makeup and hair, so I'm like, 'Okay, how is everyone really?' And they're like, 'Really, there's not a bad apple.' She goes, 'Trust me, if they are - if someone's a pain in the ass - they don't last long.'"

True Blood Season 4 : more spoilers via Kristin
@emilyanne18 (via Twitter): Do you know any new spoilers related to season four of True Blood?
We talked to Sam Trammell this weekend at an event for the True Blood: All Right Now graphic novel, and he told us about Sam’s future, “What’s great about this year is that we explore the shape-shifter community a little bit more, so there’s going to be a lot of cool mythological stuff that we talk about, shape-shifter rules and what shape-shifters can do and who they are. Sam’s [also] got a new love interest that’s going to happen this year for him. I don’t have really good luck with the ladies, they usually die—so hopefully she’ll survive.” Everybody wish Sam’s new girlfriend luck on that whole “surviving Bon Temps” thing!
@nathalia004 (via Twitter): Do you have any True Blood scoop?
True Blood star Rutina Wesley shares, “You’re going to find out where Tara goes, and there’s going to be some happiness for her. It won’t last for long, this is True Blood. It’s a new Tara, and I think the fans are going to like it. She’s not duct-taped, she’s not tied up, she’s got this personal strength and I think it’s really awesome to see her. Sookie (Anna Paquin) and I will have some stuff this season—she’s my best friend, so we’re always going to have little moments. And we’re going to get back to how I felt about Sam Merlotte, finding out that he was a shape shifter, so we are going to have a little moment about that. And I think Lafayette’s (Nelsan Ellis) the only one that knows where I am, and he gives me some great advice.” Hmm…
@JulischkaHH (via Twitter): True Blood!
How about some Jessica-Hoyt scoop? We chatted with Deborah Ann Woll this weekend, and she told us, “[Jessica and Hoyt] ended in a very positive place but obviously that won’t last for long. We definitely pick up with a bit more trouble happening. Bon Temps is a scary place! The first two episodes are very interesting—Jim [Parrack] and I had some really fun stuff to play with like right off the bat. But maybe the first episode is my favorite as of now, just because it is the most varied.” Deborah also told us that Jessica and Bill (Stephen Moyer) grow closer this season, saying, “I think we’re definitely also in a healing stage where he’s finally accepting that he has a progeny, that he has a daughter vampire, and he needs to give me tools to actually survive. So he’s definitely more cooperative and participatory in my growing up.”
