Who's New, and Who's Doing Who, in True Blood Season 3
THE EXTENDED FAMILY
Lafayette's mother: Alfre Woodard
Affiliation: Human
Backstory: I repeat: Alfre Woodard is playing Lafayette's mother. I can only hope they call each other "hooker" and start removing earrings when family spats get too heated.
Chances of Getting Naked: I mean, after that Desperate Housewives arc and the cancellation of Three Rivers, a girl's gotta put food at the table, but I'm thinking not.
Tommy: Marshall Allman
Affiliation: Shapeshifter
Backstory: Sam's brother.
Chances of Getting Naked: When the casting notice for your part has the somehow quaint-sounding term "BACKSIDE NUDITY" in capital letters, you're getting naked.
Melinda: J Smith-Cameron
Affiliation: Shapeshifter
Backstory: Sam's dirt-poor, hungover, trashy-looking mother.
Chances of Getting Naked: I'm betting that a low-cut, Cheeto-stained blouse is as far as we're going here.
Joe Lee: Cooper Huckabee
Affiliation: Shapeshifter
Backstory: Sam's father.
Chances of Getting Naked: Only if we're getting an exciting flashback to Sam's conception, where his parents morph-mated as birds, pigs, and adorably spooning okapi.

Pam is like Joan from Mad Men for me. There can never be enough of her onscreen.
And holy crap, Forney from Where The Heart Is is Franklin Mott? Mind. Is. Blown.
You forgot the new stripper who's going to be sleeping with Eric, played by Natasha Alam. Alex Skarsgard nudity ahoy!
I know True Blood isn't quite the books, but I don't remember Sookie and Alcide getting together in the books. Sookie is going to look like a cheap skank if she does hook up with Alcide.
Thanks for posting the latest casting for True Blood, I was really getting confuse trying to remember everyone. It's going to be a great season 3!
As long as we get more (and more quality) of Eric Northman I am happy puppy. Love the show, but Alexander Skarsgard is under used in my opinion and yet is critically praised for his performance as stealing the scenes he is in. His fans are legion... pleas AB give us more of the viking vamp in a meaningful way.
Aemac, you're right they don't get together they just heavily make out. Sookie also heavily makes out with Eric too...all while off trying to save Bill haha...though she was under the impression that Bill had left her for Lorena...Then remember she banishes him from her life for not being completely honest with her lol this girl has some serious double standards going on
aemac, your cheap double-standard sickens me. so bill can go off and f--- anyone he pleases and that's just being a man/vamp, but sookie can't become attracted to a warm, breathing shifter? piss off!
Ha ha! Vampmom, Bill didn't just 'go off and f--- anyone he pleases'... it was his MAKER, and they CAN'T SAY NO... How much can the poor man say SORRY??
I'm all for Sook getting with Eric anyway, but still... it was definitely harsh on him... it's not like your everyday human.. 'oh I couldn't help it' excuse....
Question....How the hell is Bill's wife from his lifetime going to be a HUMAN? I'm a little perplexed, geez I can't wait till season 3! Oh, if anyone knows the answer I'd love to know! 🙂
Sookie and Eric do some heavy Making out in Russel Edgington's mansion, but they get walked in on by Bubba, who i hope they cast. I hope they do. I want to see who they get to play Vampire Elvis who likes to be called Bubba and likes cat blood. But didnt they get Bill's Maker in season 2?
Yes, they did his maker but she comes back. Apparently, she's the one who took him, according to the books, and he spends some time getting reaquited with her then Eric does some sneaky stuff by telling Sookie that Bill was sent to seduce her cause she's a fairy and whatnot. But Bubba will not be interrupting anybody's makeout session cause he will NOT be cast and will NOT be in the show. AB has said it may times in his interviews. He thinks it would make the show too cartoony.
Sorry but I think that Theo Alexander would have made a way better Alcide. The guy the picked looks to much like Sam
I was really hoping we would get the fairy backstory this season, we might still, but in rewatching season one (after finishing all the books) they sure do allude to Sookie being "special" and "smelling F*&%@#g good", etc. Her fairy blood is catnip for vamps. I really want to see that side as well, but I am totally enjoying the sidetracks they take from the books as well. Both are rich worlds for me to enjoy!
