Frodo DJed at Sookie's wedding

Ryan Kwanten lacks a girlfriend, but not ambition

By Arienne Thompson, USA TODAY

LOS ANGELES — True Blood hunk Ryan Kwanten is more than just a pretty face. He's so ambitious, he doesn't have time to sleep, much less date.

"In order to be able to give a girlfriend the amount of time she deserves, you would need time, and I just can't give her that," the Australian actor, 33, says. "So, rather than being selfish or stupid enough to go into a relationship, it's just been easier to be single. I've worked so hard from literally nothing to this point, so there's still a while. I'm still scratching and clawing my way up there."

Kwanten is on the set for HBO's True Blood as the dimwitted but well-intentioned Jason Stackhousefor half the year and filming movies for about five of the remaining months of the year. But he wouldn't have it any other way.

MORE: When Kwanten's mum met 'Mark Walla-berg'

"Sleep has never been a priority in my life," he says, not looking worse for the wear with his boyish face and carefully tousled hair. "I love working. I love acting, so it's easy when you have a passion for it. I've always found the harder you work, the luckier you get."

If that's the case, he has a ton of luck coming his way. In addition to his television work, he has several films on the horizon that cover diverse genres.

Club Dead book review: A drama with love, betrayal and vampires

Book Review Charlaine Harris picks up with Sookie's traumatic story in Club Dead. Not quite a romance novel, The Sookie Stackhouse Series depicts Sookie's life since vampires entered it as one of abuse and misfortune. In this third book, Bill and Sookie are still an item until Bill mysteriously disappears, leaving Sookie confused and alone in Bon Temps.

Bill's disappearance sends Sookie on a journey to find out where he's gone. She heads into the Fangtasia, the well-known vampire bar, to engage Eric Northman as her champion in finding Bill. She doesn't get the response that she expects when Eric questions her why she should want to find a man she knows nothing about, one who has been lying to her about his reason for knowing her. Eric drops a bomb on Sookie by telling her Bill is not kidnapped. Eric takes a moment to remind Sookie how interested he is in becoming her second lover in her life before dropping the bomb that Bill is in Mississippi with his maker Lorena.

Vampire Diaries tonight !

* First thing's first - this episode is hot. Between Katherine's fashion choices, a good long look at Wesley's abs, and one of the most sizzling make-out scenes I've ever witnessed on screen, I'm expecting a run on cold showers around 9 p.m. EST tomorrow.
* When Vicki died in the first season, we learned that nobody on this show is safe. Keep that in mind. If there's anything I know about "The Vampire Diaries," it's that if you think things are going to be okay... you're wrong.
* Two characters will share a first kiss.
* Somerhalder and I spoke over the summer about how much he hates Damon's most vulnerable moments. Let's just say he must have really, really, really hated one of the scenes in this episode. Really.
* Stefan's protective instincts will emerge in a way they never have before. You wouldn't like him when he's angry.
* Someone will do something unforgivable.
* Tyler's rage will reach a new level. I gasped out loud during one particularly charged scene.
* What you won't see: Alaric. Matt Davis is absent from this episode, but with so much action packed into it, you probably won't miss him... much. This doesn't foreshadow his presence throughout the season, though. I hear that Alaric's storylines will still be essential to the plot, and he and Damon will become even more entangled as they try to find answers.

Eight True Blood Sex Scenes You Shouldn't Try at Home

One of the things we love most about True Blood is its commitment to being outrageous, over-the-top, and frankly insane. (We also appreciate the frequent nudity.) And while the show has thrown a few touching, sensual love scenes our way, it's also shown us a wealth of sex acts best left on the screen. These are eight sex scenes you shouldn't try at home.

1) Maryann robs the cradle

Hisssssssssssssssss! TV's top villains The seven biggest baddies the small screen has to offer: True Blood's Russell Edgington

• Prime-time good guys save the day, but a memorable villain makes it impossible to look away from the on-screen action.
  Good thing there’s no shortage of bad guys ready to commit creative acts of cruelty. Well, at least there won’t be until Sunday night. That’s when “True Blood” ends its latest round of jaw-dropping vampire violence in a highly-anticipated and no doubt bloody season finale.
  Still, whether on the air, on hiatus or long gone, TV’s assortment of vilest villains won’t be forgotten.
  
  When viewers last left Russell Edgington, otherwise known as the blood-sucking King of Mississippi, he appeared destined to die (again), but in the days before his moment in the sunlight, Russell brought a level vengeance-fueled iniquity rarely seen in a made-for-TV bad guy.
  The small screen may be filled with all manner of killers, but Russell stands out even among his vampire kin. Before a recent bout of rage propelled him into super-villain territory, the 3000-year-old had no interest in playing nice with humans. They are, after all, food as far as he’s concerned.
  But once a fellow vamp killed Russell’s consort of the last several hundred years, the regent turned into the sort of must-see mad monster that carries the remains of his lost love around in a crystal compote and rips open news anchors on live TV.

3. My favorite yoga pose is Scorpion.
4. Best advice: a day at a time.

6. A woman's body is the most exquisite gift. A woman's mind is a mystery.

7. I've broken many a bone, including every knuckle on my right hand.
8. I believe what Muhammad Ali said: "Champions...have to have the skill and the will. But the will must be stronger than the skill."
9. I could only hope to be half the man my dad is.
10. I avoid pompous people and microwaves.

BLOODlust S:3 Ep:11 Review

Alex is off to college so it's up to Antonia to recap this episode all by herself.....

Why we’re all suckers for blood, sex and vampires... TV’s steamiest show, ‘True Blood’, is going mainstream

Not since that episode of Ramsay's Kitchen Tantrums filmed in a balti house has there been a show as spicy as it. The latest cult American television series to wash up on our shores, True Blood is a gothic romp featuring a cast of sweaty, over-sexed vampires and more gratuitous nudity than you can shake a crucifix at.
Now, after 18 months under the radar, it looks set to “do a Mad Men” and go virulently mainstream. Trust us, a few months from now you won't be able to escape it. Just last week, the series, which chronicles a forbidden love affair between a psychic waitress and a husky vampire named Bill, received the ultimate endorsement: a front cover on Rolling Stone.
