Stephen Moyer as Bill Compton
Stephen Moyer interviewed by Wire UK.
Wired: We loved Six Feet Under, which was also created by Alan Ball. What did you like about the way he used the material for True Blood?
SM: Alan takes this idea of the outsider coming into the world and how everybody reacts to that outsider. The metaphor is about someone who is a pariah in society trying to prove he is not what people thinks he is and this can be a metaphor for homosexuality, the black and white civil rights movement, or any minority that you want to bring to the table.
Has there been much backlash in America because of True Blood’s sex and the supernatural themes?
Certainly in the second season I think there are people who are very anti our show because we see a cultish church and we don’t shy away from showing the hypocrisy within in. That doesn’t mean that Alan believes that but it’s a forum to be able to talk about it some more.

I just love Feral Bill.
Stephen should just record all his answers and then play them for the interviewer. I want to see some fun and different questions, maybe even one that could make him blush. I bet Steve is just so cute with a red face.
Still, it was an Ok interview. Not many questions, though.
That old picture was more compelling, I get bored of the same questions. You bitches trying to kill me with hotness?
Don’t look at me you!
