True Blood Season 5 Preview. True Blood Season 5 Character Posters: Look Who's Included... The last teaser released for the upcoming fifth season of True Blood gave us our first look of former Law & Order star Chris Meloni with fangs. I suspect fans won't get tired of seeing that anytime soon. In the meantime, we get another look at Meloni in fangs here, as he's featured among the numerous character posters HBO released for the series' new season. Spoiler alert! Fangs out, Meloni's character Roman seems threatening and dangerous, though not quite as menacing as he appears in the recently posted teaser. He's not the only one in fangs. The various posters show off some of the other vampires, including Jessica, Bill, Eric, Pam and Russell, the latter of whom was revealed to have been dug up at the end of the last season and is expected to be back.

We also get a look at some of the non-vampires, including Sam, Sookie and Jason. The last we saw of Tara, she was shot in the head by Debbie. True Blood returns for Season 5 on June 10 on HBO. Video - Breaking News Videos. 'True Blood's' Rutina Wesley talks Sunday's shocking finale. Rutina Wesley plays Tara on "True Blood. " "I don't know exactly what they have in store for me," Wesley said of her role on the showWesley: "It's 'True Blood.' I feel like anything is possible. ""If it does all end, I've had the most amazing time of my life," she said. (EW.com) -- "True Blood" fans are still reeling from last night's epic and bloody season finale.

SPOILER ALERT! We saw the returns of Grands (Lois Smith) and Rene (Michael Raymond-James), as well as possibly the resurrection of Russell (Denis O'Hare). But the most disturbing twists were Lafayette (Nelsan Ellis) stabbing Jesus (Kevin Alejandro), and Tara (Rutina Wesley) getting shot in the head by Debbie Pelt (Britt Morgan). EW talked to Wesley about the finale and whether or not Tara survived the gunshot wound.

What did you think when you read the season finale script? Well I mean, I knew ahead of time that it was coming. In your mind, is Tara dead? Well I mean half my head is missing. Maybe Tara will just wear a lot of hats? ‘True Blood’ Episode 4.6 Review – Witches Dominate in Bon Temps. It was a full moon on last night’s episode of True Blood and only some of the animals came out to play. The witches took center stage, as they were the only ones who were producing results. We’re now at the halfway mark of the season and we were left with more let downs than surprises. Bill (Stephen Moyer) found Sookie (Anna Paquin) and Eric (Alexander Skarsgard) together and had some harsh words to say about it.

He basically called Sookie a hoe. Bill ended up arresting Eric and requesting for his execution, which is a little much. Does anyone else thing it’s a little weird that Eric doesn’t know anything about himself but he knows all the vampire laws? With the onset of the full moon everyone is watching to see what happens to Jason (Ryan Kwanten). Tommy (Marshall Allman) shifted into Sam (Sam Trammel) on the full moon; we all saw that coming. The witches produced the most results this episode. Lafayette (Nelsan Ellis) and Jesus (Kevin Alejandro) also joined in on the magic. True Blood's season premiere sneaks up on you from behind. She did! They were runny just like he asked for!

Jessica is asleep all day. In the summer she would not probably up til hours after he gets home. Since sunset is around 6:30p or so (I think that's what Sookie said) so she still probably doesn't have time to get dinner ready before he gets back. She could prepare everything in the wee hours so all he has to do it heat it up when he gets home. However I bet neither of them hasn't were ever given any relationship advice or home econ. skills growing up. He probably doesn't want her to work as it takes time away from them when he's home. She's 20 or so now (maturity wise), he's supposed to be Jason's age (27 or ?)

'True Blood' does the time warp. There’s only one word to describe the first few minutes of last night’s “True Blood” premiere: woof. We picked up where we left off when Sookie joined hands with her fairy godmother Claudine and vanished from Bon Temps in a flash of light to parts unknown. It was an avalanche of suck from there. Sookie reappeared in a gauzy, watercolor alt-universe furnished with leftover set pieces from a poorly funded community theater production of "Romeo and Juliet.

" A party was in progress and the crowd was a mix of fairies swanning about and a bunch of hapless, fruit-eating mortals who were presumably gifted like Sookie. Among the guests was Barry, the telepathic bellhop from season 2, and Sookie’s late grandfather, Earl Stackhouse. Sookie quickly became suspicious of her surroundings and telepathically communicated as much to her grandpa. Anyhow, Sookie and Earl made a break for it, but not before she turned the fairies into Orcs and their Thomas Kinkade-inspired paradise into a barren hellscape.

Video - Breaking News Videos. Spoilers for True Blood Season 4 are announced - National True Blood. There is lots of news floating around about the upcoming season of HBO's vampire show, True Blood. Season 3 ended this past fall and is scheduled to begin season 4 the summer of 2011. Even though it is a few months away filming has begun and so has the spoilers and leaks for the show. So, hang on for a wild ride. First season 4 is supposed to be about "witches" if this is true then does that mean that Alan Ball is going to stick more to the books like he did last season? The second season was so far off from the books and in my opinion the worse season but last season was closer to Charlaine Harris' stories and a much better season. Yes I take into account that I was a fan of the books for MANY years and am probably harder on the show because of this but True Blood in any form is better than no True Blood and True Blood in any form is great!

Second, the characters being casted are interesting, some are from the book and some are new characters. So, do we hope to see Eric with amnesia? Alexander Skarsgard on that bloody Rolling Stone cover. Most celebrity photo shoots take weeks of planning, but that controversial Rolling Stone cover featuring a nude and bloodied trio of "True Blood" stars? It "just happened on the day" - or so claims Alexander Skarsgård in a new interview with GQ UK. "We showed up and we shot very PG-13 with our clothes on for basically the whole day, like six or seven hours," says Skarsgård, who posed alongside co-stars Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer. "Then towards the end the photographer said, 'I have this, these shots are beautiful and the magazine is going to be happy with them, but I'd like to try something if you guys are game.'" After the photographer explained his concept, Skarsgård says, "It was just one of those things in the moment where we all looked at each other, we'd spent all day with the photographer, we felt comfortable with him, we knew that he was great and the atmosphere was right, and we were like, '[Expletive] it, let's do it.'"

Fresh off their inaugural V trip, Jesus was eager to once again fall down the rabbit hole with Lafayette to further explore their magical lineage. Lafayette warned Jesus that V could be deceptive, and shortly after had a hallucination of Jesus resembling the main attraction of the Jim Rose Circus. Shaken, he sent Jesus home only to later be tormented by visions of characters from the Island of Misfit Folk Art Dolls.

From the department of storylines I just can’t get excited about, Crystal explained her strange family to Jason. Then there was Sam, who continued his struggle with inner turmoil.

Was the finale everything you hoped it would be? Even though I felt the episode was clunky at times and really didn’t leave us with an "OMG I CAN’T BELIEVE THEY TOOK IT THERE" cliffhanger, the writers brought Alcide back and that was good enough for me.

So, what happened? There were lots of little things that added up to a whole lot of awesome. Sam plied Tara with a stack of hoecakes and broke the news that he was a shapeshifter.
