The Season 2 finale hasn't even aired yet and we already have some tidbits for next season, courtesy of Alan Ball. Most are not actual spoilers unless you haven't read the books, but it was good to get some affirmations on some great storylines for us to look forward to. Read below for some of the Q&A that TV Squad had with Alan Ball earlier this week:
Will Eric be a bigger part of the show in season three? Will he and Sookie get together?
I can't tell you if they're going to get together, because that's going to ruin the anticipation. But, if you've been following season two, he's definitely been doing things to make her more vulnerable and more susceptible to him. And he does want her, he's just not sure why. I think it's deeper than just, "I want her because Bill Compton has her." Although that's part of it, because Eric is a total alpha-dog.
I'm always prepared to be shocked and awed every episode, and I am. Can you tell us anything about season three?
Well, the book is out there, so I'm not giving anything away when I say that we'll meet the Vampire King of Mississippi, Russell Edgington. And we'll encounter werewolves for the first time in the flesh; we've heard about them, but we'll meet them. I'm very excited about the character of Debbie Pelt. She's bad news.
Since I haven't read the books, who is that?
Debbie Pelt is the ex-girlfriend of a guy who's helping Sookie try to find Bill, and she is just hard ass, white trash bitch on wheels. She's so much fun. But there are other great characters, too. Everybody is struggling with identity in season three – What am I? Who am I? What is my life? Is it what I want it to be? How do I make it what I want it to be? What are my real values? And some people are like, "Am I human? I always thought I was, but maybe I was wrong." In one particular case, its like, "Yes, honey, you were wrong."
And people just love the story line with Sam and Andy and Jason. They're like, "Oh, they need their own spin- off show. Just put them on the road." Are Sam and Andy related at all?
They are not related; however, Andy is related to somebody in the show. He doesn't know it, but he'll be shocked when he finds out who it is.
Right, and they're protective, like Bill is of Sookie. Well, some of them are anyway. That's appealing.
We're going to meet a vampire in season three who's not very protective at all. Those who've read the books will recognize the name -- Franklin Mott.
