EW – Question: I love True Blood. I love Eric. Scoop, please. —Angi
Ausiello: Is it too soon to be talking about the finale? No? Cool. Exec producer Alan Ball tells me that there will be a “lot of Bill-Sookie-Eric stuff” in the season 3 finale. “It involves blood, it involves trust, and it does not go where we expect it to go.”

WOOT!

So, there are a few images floating around the sookie/truebloodverse that show the male characters that you know and love in various stages of undress…

But, I know that a lot of you do not like nudity and some of you do not like spoilers. So, I’ve decided to place a link of the images for those who could care less. If you want to see a few pics click here…

(Examiner)I’m sure more than a few of us die-hard True Blood fans were wondering just where good ol’ southern gentleman vampire Bill Compton was whisked off to at the end of Season2? While the answer might not be entirely clear to us, yet, Stephen Moyer did drop a little hint about his character’s whereabouts during an interview with MTV last night. Apparently Bill Compton will be “reunited” with his Civil War wife Caroline Compton who is to be played by actress Shannon Lucio. Lucio is replacing Amber Dawn Landrum who played Bill Compton’s wife in the flashback scenes in previous seasons. Moyer delicately sidestepped more pointed questions about the new actress except to say that she is “very delightful”.

“She is lovely, and we do see her in a flashback to Bill’s days,” Stephen told MTV News. “I don’t want to give too much, but she is back in Louisiana at a time when he is in the Civil War. So there is that scene. There’s all sorts of things and I’m not going to tell you about — any of them!”

In other Season 3 spoiler news, TV Over Mind reports that actor Sam Trammell, who plays the shape-shifting bar owner Sam Merlotte, let it slip to reporter Rebecca Murray at the 2010 Spirit Awards that there is a rumored sex scene between Bill Compton and Sam Merlotte in Season 3! Well, well! “I can’t say anything more than that… because people want to be surprised, but there is something that people will be talking about.” Trammell said.

Trammell also mentioned flashback sequences involving Merlotte’s rough childhood on the streets after his adopted parents abandoned him. “There’s some flashbacks to my past, and how I was able to stay afloat as a teenager on the streets, and some of the things I had to do. We really get deep. It’s really good.” He said, but did not elaborate.

Okay, the latter part… Sam and Bill. Just the idea of that on tv… someone bleach my eyes and brain out.

(EW.COM)  If you’re one of the (many) True Blood viewers who suspected there might be fallout from Bill “donating” blood to save Sam’s life in the finale last September, go ahead and give yourself a gold star. The show’s boss, Alan Ball, tells me that in season 3, the hunks will forge “not just any connection, an erotic connection.”

How erotic? Ball wouldn’t say. But at least was more forthcoming with regard to another upcoming same-sex couple-to-be: Lafayette and his new love interest Jesus (played by Southland’s Kevin Alejandro). Bon Temps’ resident V peddler “is very guarded, and Jesus is a guy who his willing to knock down some of those guards,” he says. “[Though] it’s not an easy relationship, they have a lot in common. They’re both shamans of sorts, healers, so there’s a reason they get brought together. “But,” he emphasizes again, “it’s not going to be easy.”

So, thoughts on a Bill/Sam flirtation? Too far-out or not far enough? And do you even care, so long as the subplot leaves Sookie free to explore her attraction to Eric?

Anne Rice stated in a recent interview, “”I think “True Blood” is very clever. I really like Bill Compton. I think he’s a nice, really melancholy, tormented vampire. I think Southerners really like “True Blood” because they got the South right. It took a vampire show to get it right. So often they get it totally wrong, but somehow or another, it totally works .”
