Big news in the True Blood world! According to Entertainment Weekly,Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer’s representatives have confirmed that they are expecting a baby! The happy couple are due in the fall. We love them both and wish them all the best. Congratulations!
HBO aired another video tonight before Game of Thrones (after the Waiting Sucks video). This one shows their spring & summer programming, and there is a new look at a sad Sookie and a cool painted photo of Bill. (The other scenes were shown in their first promo of Season 5).
So this picture of Sookie makes me wonder, this must be after they buried someone in the yard. Does she look sad over Tara, or is this remorse over Debbie, or both?
