Episode 3, Abducted, Features a New Doctor
On February 8th, 2013, Truebloodnet.com reported that Episode 3, Season 6 of HBO’s series True Blood had been re-titled. ‘Rock Hard Times’ was renamed ‘Abducted’, and would introduce the character of Dr. Overlark. It has been announced that veteran character actor, John Fleck (Weeds, Bones) has been cast in this role.
The recurring guest role of Dr. Overlark has been described as 50 years old, and a ruthless advisor to Arliss Howard’s Governor Creighton Burrell. Cast as Dr. Overlark, John Fleck is a long-time character actor who has appeared in a wide array of television guest roles. Mr. Fleck is one of only three actors to have appeared in every installment of the Star Trek television franchise (albeit as a different character in each).
We have one more character in place, but still no starting date for Season 6 to air. We’re left to speculate and anticipate, leaving us sure of only one thing: waiting sucks.

New Role to Be Cast for Season 6 (and Beyond) of True Blood
March 27, 2013
She’s Sexy, She’s a Vampire, and Her Name is Violet:
More characters are being cast for HBO’s True Blood every day. Season 6 is looking to burst at the seams, that’s for sure!
The newest cast member will be Karolina Wydra. Fans of House may remember her as Dominika, House’s bride of convenience. According to TV Line, Wydra will be playing the role of Violet. Spoiler TV have described this character as such:
A sexy, dangerous vampire named Violet will be part of a love triangle in seasons 6 & 7.
They also speculate this triangle may involve Jason Stackhouse (Ryan Kwanten) and the new vampire, Wes. It is also said that the character of Violet is possibly dangerous enough to rival the likes of Eric Northman (Alexander Skarsgard) and Bill Compton (Stephen Moyer).
I guess only time will tell.
What are your predictions for this character in Season 6 of True Blood? Let us know in the comments below.

New Pictures Emerge of True Blood’s Rutger Hauer and Ryan Kwanten
March 21, 2013
What are Jason Stackhouse and Macklyn up to in Season 6?
Photos have just been released of newcomer, Macklyn (Rutger Hauer) and True Blood regular Jason Stackhouse (Ryan Kwanten) on the set of HBO’s True Blood. While there is no indication which episode of Season 6 this is for, it certainly is food for thought.
Thanks to previous spoilers released, we know that Macklyn is a sinister and some what mysterious character that has ties to both Jason and Sookie Stackhouse (Anna Paquin). It is, in fact, a possibility that Macklyn may have been the one who murdered their parents! So what is Jason doing in these scenes with him?
But what I really want to know is…who is Macklyn’s hairdresser?
You can view more photos of Rutger Hauer and Ryan Kwanten here.

True Blood Season 6 SPOILER: Episode 5
March 20, 2013
It appears, thanks to SpoilerTV, that the title of Episode 5 in Season 6 of HBO’s True Blood will be called: ‘F*ck The Pain Away’.
With a title like that, fans could be led to believe that all is not rosy for someone in Bon Temps. When SpoilerTV goes on to say that there is a role call for actors to play the parents of newcomer Ben (Rob Kazinsky), then there is speculation maybe Sookie (Anna Paquin) is the one suffering?
Since Ben is a fairy, it would appear his parents are too. However, we will see them via a flashback in this episode – so are they still alive?
What are your theories on Season 6 of True Blood? Let us know in the comments below.

Alex Skarsgård Pauses True Blood For The East At Sundance:
March 8, 2013
Taking A Break From Filming Season Six of HBO’s True Blood, Alexander Skarsgård Attends Sundance Movie Premier
Premiering January 20th at the Sundance Film Festival, The East is a film starring Alexander Skarsgård (Eric Northman) of HBO’s series, True Blood. Mr. Skarsgård was joined by the film’s other cast members in discussing its central theme; is there morality in terrorism?
The East is an espionage thriller that focuses on an operative, Sara Moss, played by Brit Marling. Sara is investigating a group of eco-terrorists targeting big businesses causing harm to the public. The group is loosely led by Benji (Mr. Skarsgård), who Sara finds herself drawn to. Ellen Page rounds out the cast as a group member named Izzy.
Mr. Skarsgård explains the film’s theme:
“The question is, morally, where do you draw the line? How far are you willing to go for this cause? …it’s not preachy. It’s complicated. The way life is and reality is.”
While attending The Sundance Film Festival, Mr. Skarsgård also found time to meet with fans and sign some autographs outside of Village At The Lift.

Spoiler Alert! True Blood Casting Call: Episode 6 Calls for a New Vampire
March 5, 2013
SpoilerTV Wants you in Season 6:
Yet another casting call has been issued for Season 6 of HBO’s True Blood! SpoilerTV has announced that HBO are looking for someone to play a vampire in Episode 6. His name is Wes (sorry to all you lady actors) and he was turned in the 70′s. Wonder if he was a hippy with long hair? While his ethnicity hasn’t been specified, the actor will have to appear to be in their mid-20s. Wes will survive his recurring Season 6 role and become a Season 7 regular. Rear nudity will be involved. SpoilerTV also had this to say about the role:
He’s sexy, smart, compassionate, protective, and plays the guitar. He’s going to be involved in a love triangle with Jason (Ryan Kwanten) and another vampire
Wonder if that other vampire is Jessica (Deborah Ann Woll)? And is this confirmation that True Blood has been renewed for Season 7? What are your thoughts? Let me know in the comments below.

Season 6 Spoiler: New Episode Title for the next season of True Blood
March 5, 2013
Another Day, Another Song Title for Season 6:
We have been reporting (thanks to SpoilerTV.com) the names of each episode of the upcoming Season 6 of HBO’s True Blood, as they arrive. Well, we have another one! Episode 4 of Season 6 has been given the name ‘I’m Your Man’. It’s another song title and it’s anyone’s guess as to whether it’s in reference to Leonard Cohen or Wham! Since HBO is partial to indie songs for True Blood, most people are putting their money on Leonard Cohen. Personally, being a huge Wham! fan, I wan to see an 80′s pop song featured in Season 6!
SpoilerTV.com have also announced two new casting roles:
LAVTF Team Commander (I’m guessing that LAVTF stands for “Louisiana Vampire Task Force”) , who prepares to attack a house with his crew; and Security Chief, whose becomes concerned for his employer when a vampire pays a visit.
Which song do you think it will be? And what do you think the episode title will mean for the episode itself?
Let us know in the comments below.

UPDATE: Title Change for Episode 3 (Season 6) of HBO’s True Blood
February 8, 2013
‘Rock Hard Times’ Gets a New Name:
Recently, True Blood Net reported that Episode 3, Season 6 of HBO’s True Blood would be titled ‘Rock Hard Times’. As is the case with television shows that are evolving as they are written and filmed, SpoilerTV has reported a name change. Episode 3 will no longer be known as ‘Rock Hard Times’, but has been retitled as ‘Abducted’.
Along with this name change, there is another casting call. HBO are on the look out for someone to play the recurring guest role of Dr. Overlark. This character is 50-years-old and a ruthless advisor to the Governor, Creighton Burrell (played by Arliss Howard). Along side this role, they are also keen to find someone to fill the role of Hido Takahashi. Hido is another a 50-year-old, but one who likes to talk about himself!
Besides these recurring roles, HBO are also looking for a guest role. Maggie is a 35-year-old woman who is pregnant and thinks her husband has run off with another woman. And, finally, they are looking for co-star roles in the form of two police deputies who have to search a cabin.
So many tasty morsels here. Why was Episode 3′s name changed? And who are all these interesting new characters? At least it will give us something to think about until HBO announces the start date for True Blood.
