Welcome to True Spud (via @EricSookieLover)
For today’s (Day 14) fangalicious Fang-A-Thon 2012 post…I thought I’d share with you some new cast photos of the cast of True Spud! No, that’s NOT a typo! LOL It seems Stack Magazine is getting into the spirit of True Blood…or maybe just into the spirits?
Below are awesome pics of Eric, Sookie and the rest of the characters! Let’s see if you can guess which one represents which character?
But wait…there’s more!
If you want to find out what Jason, Lafayette and some of the others look like – check them out here!
Okay…take a guess! Which one is which?
Share your guesses below in the comments!

Day 14: All Hail King Bill (via @Eric_NorthmanTB)
There is a misconception out there that I do not like Bill Compton. On the contrary, I have come to a great appreciation for His Majesty.
First, there is his appreciation for humanity, something that I am struggling to rediscover for myself. As a child, I was taught to show no mercy. As a vampire, I was taught to see them only as prey. Compton has shown me that there is more to them than being something to conquer or something to eat. Plus one must simply admire his dedication to the cause: going so far as to actually subside on True Blood? Not even Godric had that kind of discipline.
Second, I admire the fact that he has managed to both obtain and keep the crown. I don’t have to tell you that politics amongst vampires can be rather bloody. Few survive it, and for one as young as Compton to do so and thrive takes a great amount of skill and cunning. Using the Authorities own guards against Sophie Anne was genius, a move no monarch would have ever planned for.
Finally, I admire his dedication to Sookie. So many men – human and vampires alike have seen to ignore her or malign her name. Hell, even I wouldn’t have given her a second thought had I not see Compton’s sudden infatuation with the woman. From the moment I saw them together, I knew he saw something in her that others could not see, and I did not want to let him keep that for himself. In time, though, I have come to realize that it is cruel to separate the pair. They are meant for each other and I know now that I must bow out and let her have the happiness and joy that she only ever truly seems to reach with my liege. I will silently support them both, and I will be there to help him mourn when Time inevitably takes her away from him.
Compton is a wonderful king and I anticipate many centuries in his service. And on that note: a warning to those that might try to take his crown: the second you make your threat is the second you will lose that head that planned to wear it.
Do you think Bill could hear them? (via @LuvBONESnTBlood)
I was Season 4 Episode watching I wish I was the Moon again today and I was wondering….Vamps are suppose to have superior hearing right? They are supposed to hear things very far away. So, at the end of the episode when they show Bill on the porch of his home with his glass of blood, do you think he could hear Eric and Sookie’s conversation in the woods when they reunited?? The look on his face is so sad and you could feel how he knew he lost and then his eyes shift at the end just enough as he looks up and levels straight ahead like he’s heard something he wish he hadn’t. Ha…ha…serves him right at that point.
Jason: These Hot Shot f***ers are so dumb they can’t even make a werepanther right.
Day 14 #Fangathon 2012 – Sookie’s lovers (via @SassyJessOB)
Hey! Is it me or is it the case where Sookie goes through several lovers before she meets Eric and feels like he’s the one but then blames the bond they have and so on…. I mean does this girl actually have a rebound at all like most of us normal people would… Okay she’s fictional but still… Really??? I mean she jumped into a relationship with Bill eventually in book 1 but as the books progressed she seems to have no break from going on dates with the next guy, even if they end badly or not! Although in the last and most recent few books she’s been with Eric and they’ve had an interesting relationship, but after reading DeadLocked they are on the verge of what I think is a breakup!
Sookie you need to slow down and take time heal from Eric I hope!!!
True Bites: Don’t Cry, It’s Not That Bad (via @DarlingSookie)
Last night, @TB_PamR, @VampKingBill and I were honored to be joined by Bon Temps very own llama lovin’ local, @JBDuRoneTB.
As anyone who has ever listened to the show will know, we don’t sugar coat anything and last night was not the exception. From our favorite deviations (Lafayette’s continued existence and Jessica’s creation) to our least favorite storylines that never panned out (Hot Shot rape train, Andy’s Frolickin’ Fairy) find out what we loved/hated and out right adore about our favorite Vampire show, True Blood, by listening into Don’t Cry, It’s Not That Bad.
Remember to tune into True Bites every Tuesday night at our new time, 9/8 CST.
THANK YOU MIKE MCMILLIAN [@McMillzz] (via @TB_PamR)
The first issue of the True Blood ongoing comic book series is out and I have to say… “Thank you, thank you, thank you, Steve Newlin.”
I know. That’s one of those #ThingsPamWouldNeverSay Well, never say never kids, ‘cause I’m saying it. Not only that, I mean it.
Now, to be honest, I expected a decent story arc from @McMillzz. His Tainted Love arc, while not my favorite (as I mentioned in Why I love True Blood comics ) but I did enjoy it. I really enjoyed his LUCID series. That he and fellow writer Ann Nocenti, turned in a cohesive and intriguing first issue for the ongoing comic book series is not a huge surprise. Still, -smirks- it’s reassuring to be right about something True Blood related these nights.
The Rev. Newlin didn’t stop there, however.
He pulled off a miracle. Really.
The art for the ongoing series is great! Artist Michael Gaydos (that’s an alias by the way -smirks- you won’t find him on Facebook or Google+) delivers the best art yet for True Blood comic books. You can actually -gasp- tell who the characters are without reading there names. Well, except for Chow, but there’s a good reason for that.
I’m not going to spoil the story. Neither am I going to speculate on where anyone was on that historic night when we vampires came out of the coffin because, and I am quite pleased to be able to say this, I am confident that the McMillzz can do it better.
I can hardly wait to see what Rev. Newlin has in store for #2 and that’s another #SomethingPamWouldNeverSay.

Watching the progression of Pam’s rotting face over several episodes was quite fun. I kinda like the beekeeper look. *snaps fingers laughing* Hey Pam! Fetch me some honey!
What Eric needs… (via @JBDuRone)
… is a WINGMAN! Like Mother Goose to Maverick. Like Hope was to Crosby. Big to Rob.
I’m not talking about a flunkie who takes care of Eric’s Vampire Bizness (blah blah blah) during the day. I’m talking about a good friend that hangs out with Eric, watches his back and gives him good bro-type advice. Those things, plus rake in all of his castoffs…
A bro could give Eric some very sage advice like; don’t glamor Ginger anymore, her head is full of holes as it is. Or, dude, lay off the highlights! Or, stay away from that TB Sookie – she’s nothing but trouble (SVM Sookie is okay).
But the best advice a bro could give Eric is; just go ahead and snap that Bill guy in half.
I can think of no one better to be Eric’s wingman than… Me! I meet all of the qualifications I can think of!
Eric Northman – hit me back, will you?

night 14 character i am so glad is gone (via @FangbangerEst89)
lorena
i could not stand her at all. it was so amazing what godric did to her made her leave at least for that time. cause she came back for awhile in three then she finally went bye bye season 3! she lives in the book well i just started reading dead by day and that makes me want to clock out bill upside the head even more. hopefully as i read on maybe she will be gone too again because she just treated poor sookie soooo terribly.
True Blood Everything Is At Stake Promo Video (via @vs4as)
Here’s a video promo for season 5 of True Blood (a mix of some of the prior trailers). Spoilers! Don’t look if you don’t want some spoiling! I spy a female hand digging her way out of the dirt (a vampire hand perhaps?) Waiting SUCKS

As I re-watch promos I’m starting to think the scene when Lala is yelling at Sookie might be him channeling Tara, which would mean ghostie on board. This is what came to me last night as I was tossing and turning trying to sleep but the new promo definitely shows a vamp coming out of the grave. Maybe it’s not the same one or it’s from Pam’s flashback story of her turning
New promo with more spoilery goodness, wow, see the hand coming out of the grave? Does it mean Tara was turned by that hand’s owner or is she really dead? We’ll see in 17 days!
All the screencaps you could ever want at Skarsgardfans, muito obrigado Barbara!
Bite her Pam, bite her!
Don’t forget updates added all day long!
can not wait! Fevre Dream with Abe Lincoln.
new poster on top, reminded me of this old one.
all of them are here on Facebook.
Love Russell’s (with some sour cream)
Fang-A-Thon Day 14: In Honor of a Sheriff that I am Blessed to Have In My Service (via @VampKingBill)
I would like to take this opportunity to advise the general public-human, were and vampire and otherwise, about one particular vampire whom I greatly admire. Eric Northman, Sheriff of Area 5.
Now I have spent many years worshiping Eric, studying his every move and wishing that I could be the vampire that he is: confident, strong, ruthless, cunning and vicious when he needs to be. Not to mention his keen sense of business.
Another thing admire about Eric is his lack of interest in mainstreaming. He may be altering his ways in some regards to cater to the humans and our revelation, however, Eric still refuses to drink the synthetic True Blood. Instead, he intends to carry on taking the blood from humans. Eric does not care about what humans think of him. He does not care what other vampires think of him. He refuses to conform and that is one thing at I envy.
I am sure that most of you have heard the rumours of Eric’s skill in the bedroom. It is not as though he has kept it a secret. I wish I had the stamina and the ability to please a woman as thoroughly as Eric can. Perhaps if I had Eric’s skill, I wouldn’t have to worry so much about Sookie not enjoying herself when I take her to bed.
As I sit on the couch, watching a rerun of my favourite television program, Toddler’s and Tiara’s, I think back on Eric’s interactions with Sookie. Eric is well over 1,000 years old and stronger than I will ever be. He is more capable of protecting Sookie from any harm that may come her way. His blood is even more potent than mine making him the better vampire to tend to Sookie’s wounds if she becomes injured.
I have observed Sookie and Eric together and it is obvious how much Eric loves her and it is abundantly clear to me that I can no longer compete for Sookie’s affections when it is obvious to me that I am not the best man for Sookie. I respectfully hand Sookie over to Eric and I give him my word that I will no longer interfere in their relationship.

10 REASONS WHY TB IS THE BEST SHOW ON TV (via @Aly_x)
10. There’s no way for the vampires to be out in the sunshine permanently. They need huge amounts of Fae blood just to be outside for a few hours which isn’t available easily. In Twilight they sparkle in the sun (the fuck?) and in Vampire Diaries one of them apparently wears a ring that lets them go into the sun. So unrealistic.
9. Lots of different were animals….not just werewolves! Adds variety!
8. Incorporation of real places to made up ones, makes it more realistic i.e Bon Temp to Shreveport and New Orleans
7. The Southern accents!
6. How it’s different to the books, some creative license has been taken, keeps bookies entertained by not being exactly the same (unlike Twilight)
5. The death toll….and the gore…and all the sex!
4. How the writers give each character many layers which are slowly revealed over the seasons, the writers build on the characters personalities which allows viewers to relate to them to some degree
3. The fangs….they’re pretty cool and the way they appear and disappear is fabulous!
2. The wonderful array of talent on the show, from the young and the old to the main stars and the guests stars, all of them are brilliant and add their own touch to their characters
1. Alexander Skarsgård.

Lonely hearts (via @mswriteok)
Here’s a thought : have you ever stopped to consider how lonely Sookie Stackhouse must be?
She has lived her whole life listening to other people live their daily lives. When she intimates by thought, word or deed that she knows more than she should about someone, most of the time she is shunned.
School was a nightmare for her. Dating was worse.
No matter your sex, imagine how truly awful it would be to hear ever all the things flitting through your date’s head, from the ridiculous (do I smell funny?) to the downright nasty (I’ll bet he’s/she’s hotter than hell naked). How would Sookie feel, since she has no way of knowing that all these thoughts are totally normal, natural and acceptable. Because a person thinks these things does not mean this person expects any of that to happen right now.
She is friends with Tara because she promised to stop reading her thoughts. Same with Jason.
Was the reason she fell so hard for Bill that she could not know what he was thinking? There is every reason to believe he was having the same kind of flitting thoughts through his head the entire time he was with Sookie, she simply couldn’t read them.
It was restful for her certainly, but really, not diametrically different from going out with a human. He had his way with her, but since she didn’t know what was coming, that made it different for her.
Still, he betrayed her.
Eric does the same thing.
How does Sookie deal with daily life? She has a well-rehearsed smile she plasters on her face when things get to be too much — both at work and any where else.
She realizes most of the town refers to her as “Crazy Sookie.” That has got to hurt. She can’t trust most people because she can read every thought that flashes through their head from the moment she asks them something to the time they answer her questions.
I admire the fact she is always trying to better herself. From her “Word a Day” calendar to watching the game show “Jeopardy” when she can, she wants to educate herself.
One of the saddest moments on the series was when she and Bill were imagining themselves in a normal life and relationship.
She wanted to be a real estate agent, a job that requires extensive public interaction, savvy negotiation skills and a great wardrobe.
That is something she could do anyway. It doesn’t have to be a fantasy. Actually, her telepathy would come in handy in matching the right buyer with the right house, but the years of being hurt by everyone has convinced her she can’t do it.
At this point both in the books and the series, she is on her own. In the books, she has broken the blood bond, saved the one man who has believed in her and is getting ready to start a new life.
On the series, the blood bond still exists, but she has lost her best friend and has dumped both Bill and Eric. She could start new there too, but that will never happen, because Alan Ball doesn’t care about Sookie, but about the vampires. She is a necessary evil. She has to be around to attract the vampires and keep them safe during the day.
Still, in both universes, she is lonely.

Kissing – the only thing Eric will regret not doing
“Well, here’s the truth. There are forces beyond even my control. And if I meet the true death without having at least kissed you, Sookie Stackhouse… that would be my biggest regret.”
“If you kiss me, I promise to be happy. “
“Why? It’s only a kiss.”
