A very very very short True Blood season 3 clip:

True Blood’s Anna Paquin chats about playing metaphorically gay roles, dating her co-star, and her character’s newfound love of S&M.

Bleeding into a highly anticipated second season, True Blood, Alan Ball’s dark and drawling Southern vamp drama returns, riddled with thinly veiled metaphors for LGBT rights. On and off-screen the show’s lead vampire lover, Sookie Stackhouse, played by X-Men’s Anna Paquin, aches for the bite of her vampire lover, solves mysteries telepathically…and waits tables.

The Canadian-born, New Zealand raised Oscar winner (she won Best Supporting Actress at the ripe age of 11 for The Piano), recently chatted with Out about the new season, her uncanny ability to play metaphorically gay roles, her off-screen romance with co-star Stephen Moyer, and sweet Sookie’s newfound love of S&M.

Out: How did you get involved with True Blood?
Anna Paquin: Well, I read the pilot script and completely fell in love with it and then pursued it incredibly hard, auditioned 100 times — I mean four or five times — until they said yes.

Sookie initially comes across as a innocent and incredibly virtuous girl. What drew you to the role: was it that sweet nature or was it her darker moments?
Well, it’s the fact that she’s all of it [rolled into] one, because I feel like that’s real. You can be someone who’s gone through a lot of crap in your life and who has survived a lot of ups and downs and whatevers and still be someone with a positive outlook. You can be sweet and kind and treat people the way you want to be treated even if that’s not the way you’ve been treated. She’s not a victim. I love that about her, and she’s really tough — mostly she just kicks ass.

Another interesting article about True Blood by TVWeek:

HBO’s “True Blood” topped the TV Fandex, a new measurement system created by Wetpaint that tracks the level of “fan engagement” on Facebook, Twitter, Google and Wetpaint’s network of 1.5 million fan sites, The Hollywood Reporter says.

The series was followed by CBS’ “NCIS,” Fox’s “House,” Showtime’s “Weeds” and canceled Fox series “Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles” in the first week of public Fandex rankings.

“It’s clear there is a fundamental decentralization under way in how consumers experience TV programming, but the measurement tools have remained substantially the same,” Wetpaint CEO Ben Elowitz said. “Fans now have the tools to connect and evangelize, and they are using them with gusto. The TV Fandex provides networks and producers with the first gauge of the winners and losers in creating and retaining an online audience.”

Hey
A new episode 2 preview:

by EW.com

NAMES/AGES
Anna Paquin (Sookie), 26; Stephen Moyer (Bill), 39; Sam Trammell (Sam), 38; Ryan Kwanten (Jason), 32; Rutina Wesley (Tara), 29; Nelsan Ellis (Lafayette), 31
WHY THEM
HBO’s vampire drama has the sexiest, sauciest ensemble on TV — one that was willing to suck blood to work with show creator Alan Ball. ”I started stalking him,” says Paquin of her pursuit of Ball for the role of prim but feisty Southern belle Sookie.
PLAYING AGAINST TYPE
As Sookie’s love interest, Moyer’s vampire Bill provides a gentle take on the undead. ”The sex and drug addicts on our show are all human,” contends Moyer. ”They’re the seedy side.” And none more so than androgynous gay fry cook/drug dealer Lafayette. ”I’ve never really heard a character description of a dude wearing lipstick and makeup who’s masculine sometimes,” says Ellis of what drew him to the part. Recognition came more quickly for Wesley, who plays bitter Tara. ”Immediately I got Tara. I saw through her anger straight to her heart.” That’s why Ball’s show isn’t your typical vamp camp. As Kwanten puts it, ”With the depth of characters and substance of our stories, it’s so much more than just a vampire show.” True that.
NEXT
Season 2 will feature wilder story lines and crazier creatures. ”I don’t think it’ll feel like a different show, but it’s definitely going to feel like a bigger show,” says Trammell.
ON THEIR MUST LISTS
Paquin’s fired up over FX’s Rescue Me, while Moyer just finished Willy Vlautin’s The Motel Life.
