12 True Blood Season 3 Spoilers from SciFiWire

True Blood‘s Alan Ball, Raelle Tucker and Alexander Woo sat down with SciFiWire.com and revealed 12 spoilers for True Blood season 3. Some of it we already know from the writers panel and the casting call, but there are a few new tidbits. Here’s an excerpt:
- Bill won’t be back for a while. Ball confirmed that the arc of Bill’s kidnapping will last “about six episodes.” That sounds like just enough time to put Sookie (Anna Paquin) through the wringer, but not enough to try viewers’ patience. Plus, we’ll probably still get to see Bill deal with his captors in episodes 1-5.
- Meet the Merlottes. Shape-shifter Sam (Sam Trammell) will find his family this year, and Tucker gets to write their characters a lot in episode two. “I’m getting to write Sam’s family, which is a lot of fun, and, really, I feel really satisfying as a character arc,” she said. “I really am glad that he’s taking this journey and he’s learning about himself. I find that interesting. They aren’t the brightest people, maybe. At least they appear that way. They’re fairly dysfunctional, but like anybody else, they have their good things about them and not-so-good things. They’re still getting to know each other. Sam’s still getting to know them, and so are we.”
- Werewolves sink their teeth into Louisiana. Werewolves are coming to True Blood, and Ball offered a preview of what his wolf-people will look like. “They’re just wolves,” Ball said. “It’s just people who can turn into wolves, but they’re slightly bigger and much stronger. Their eyes glow orange a little bit.”
The werewolves sound spooky and awesome! (Spookily awesome? Awesomely spooky?) For the rest of the spoilers, check out SciFiWire.com.

I cannot wait to see what the weres will look like in true blood and how alan ball and the crew are gonna show them (whether theyre going to use CGI or another form).
While I love Bill’s character, I expected not to see much of him from reading the books and even without him, book 3 turned out to be one of my favorites so hopefully season 3 will live up to my expectations!
hope the wolves are real with a lil ‘puter tweaking, there’s nothing i hate worse than CGI for the sake of CGI.
Yup. ‘New Moon’ weres are a train wreck…
I loved the spoilers, but I couldn’t believe Raelle Tucker’s comment about the call for more Eric. I just about feel like crying. Will they not ever get it? Why, oh why, can they not understand the appeal of Eric Northman/Alexander Skarsgard?
Man, all I know is I can’t wait for them to get to Season 4–the 4th book–hee hee hee!
Umm…I agree. To say the least!
that sounds so awesome werewolves in true blood.
i hope they dont use real wolves.. im so excited to see alcide!

Apparently, since a lover has been chosen for Eric and it isn’t Sookie, there won’t be any hook-up for Eric and Sookie. I believe the writers and Mr. Ball is underestimating the fans in this regard.
eric, eric, eric, that’s all i ever hear is eric.. Was no one else pissed off when he called lorena to come and take bill away from sookie. what a jerk. if it weren’t for godric she would have gotten raped. please tell me why everyone loves eric.
AB better include the part where Eric gives his blood to Sookie .. whew ~! i can’t totally wait to see that ..
