If you’ll remember at the end of the second season of HBO’s “True Blood” last September, Bill (Stephen Moyer) had to save Sam’s (Sam Trammell) life by healing him with his blood. As we know from Sookie and Lafayette’s reactions to drinking vampire blood direct from a vampire, there will indeed be a bond between Bill and Sam. Showrunner, Alan Ball confirms this:
“[Bill and Sam will form] not just any connection, an erotic connection.”
I wonder how that will work with Bill being M.I.A… or will this help them find Bill as well? (Bill pictured left, Sam on right)
Bill and Sam won’t be the only same sex attraction going on next season. SciFi Mafia has previously reported the casting of Lafayette’s (Nelsan Ellis) love interest Jesus (played by the hunky Kevin Alejandro). Ball describes this new relationship:
“[Lafayette is] very guarded, and Jesus is a guy who is willing to knock down some of those guards. [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, it’s not going to be easy.”

This next eagerly awaited third season will also feature more nudity. Actor Todd Lowe who plays Terry Bellefleur says:
“A lot of people will be getting naked this season.”
Who you might ask? Amongst the ones to bare it all is… (I must admit, I am almost falling over as I type this) ALEXANDER SKARSGARD (aka Eric Northman on the show)!!
