If you’re anything like me, the True Blood season 6 trailers are just making you itch for more. It’s been a long hiatus between seasons, and us Truebies crave new episodes like a vampire craves some good ol’ bottled O-Neg. The wait is almost over, but before we start a new season of blood, sex, and intrigue it helps to look back on all the important things that have happened between our favorite characters. I’m talking, of course, of relationships. Half the fun of True Blood is watching these relationships unfold–and sometimes get destroyed. There’s no...

The sixth season of HBO’s hit show “True Blood” is coming down the pipe faster than Russell Edgington can drain a faerie. June 16th is the official premier date and picks up right where season 5 ended – with Bill drinking the blood of Lilith and transforming into some super vampire monster (commonly referred to as “Billith” by fans); Eric yelling “RUN!” at Sookie after Billith arises from the pile of vampire goo that was Bill; and Pam, Jason, Tara, Jessica, and Nora riding on an elevator together, about to go into battle against the remaining security forces of the...

You know summer has arrived when “True Blood” returns to HBO. Along with our return to Bon Temps on television, we must also acknowledge the end of Charlaine Harris’ Sookie Stackhouse mystery series (also known as the Southern Vampire Mysteries). Book 13, Dead Ever After, is due to be released on May 17th. The close of the book series, and rumors that Season 6 will be the last for the HBO series, brings us the inevitable, burning question: who is Sookie’s supernatural soulmate? Throughout the series, Sookie has had a few romantic options. Sam has always been interested in her,...

Rumors have been circulating that a major character, many are speculating that character will be Eric Northman, will die at the end of True Blood’s sixth season. The past two seasons have involved rumors  that the show wouldn’t be renewed for a next season, and have also included rumors Eric Northman would not survive. So, if multiple rumors are true, and this turns out to be the last season and ratings won’t matter in the decision about who to keep and who to lose, then no characters would be off limits! However, the lead characters are all bound by a seven year contract...

As the June 16th quickly approaches some die-hard True Blood fans understand more than others the fact that “waiting sucks”. Aside from the fact that Game of Thrones is on the air, HBO also wants to keep fan’s interest perked with these season 5 teaser trailers to be released periodically as the show premiere draws nearer. The first video in the series is a scene featuring everyone’s favorite Bon Temps quarterback, Jason: We’ll update and bump this post as the videos become available so be sure to bookmark it. Waiting sucks just a little bit less with these...

I just thought I’d post something fun today; you know no news or development talk. Thanks to Blastr.com I stumbled across a scene from the originally shot pilot of TRUE BLOOD. The actress is Brooke Kerr, who I guess, played a popular character on the NBC soap Passions. She played Tara Thornton in the pilot episode. Now, don’t get confused we know Rutina Wesley has played that character for all five seasons of the show. A pilot episode must have been shot in order to show HBO executives something before they committed to TRUE BLOOD as a series. HBO must have balked on what they saw and...

Easter Sunday, 2013 is a massive day for HBO and its properties.  Game of Thrones season 3 is premiering  tonight at 9PM and the network is going to take the opportunity to tout some of its other new shows alongside the mega-hit fantasy series.  We’ll, of course cover all of those for you on HBOWatch. First up this morning is a trailer for the sixth season of True Blood!  In the past the debut trailer was a teaser of sorts and didn’t always contain footage from the new season.  This teaser actually gives us a peek at where everyone is starting off this year.  See for...

Luke Grimes takes a recurring role in Season 6 of TRUE BLOOD. Reports say he will appear in five episodes in the shortened season. His character will be known as Wes. He is described as a “27-year-old, sexy, spiritual, compassionate, intelligent, protective, deeply emotional, and guitar-playing vampire who was turned in the ‘70’s.” Wow, that is one adjective laden description! Maybe, if he and the show are lucky we could see him as a bigger role in future seasons. We will have to wait until TRUE BLOOD premieres on 06.16 to see who he interacts with. Young Mr. Grimes last appeared on...

It’s the moment many Trubies have been waiting for.  True Blood Season 5 is arriving on DVD soon!  The May 21st date gives us a bit of insight into a possible True Blood Season 6 premiere date.  HBO times DVDs and Blu-Ray releases about 4-6 weeks before a new season premiere.  So this more or less confirms most people’s suspicions that the new season will premiere sometime in late spring / early summer.  Here are the details straight from HBO: A vampire civil war is brewing, Sookie’s best friend is dead and an old vampire foe has returned to wreak havoc on the human...
