Pam of ‘True Blood’ Says Yes to Lesbian Story

Bauer plays Pam the sidekick of Eric and the screener of Fangtasia. Ball said he thinks Pam has a “lesbian vibe”, explaining further, “I don’t know that that’s all she is, but she certainly does seem to appreciate the women.”

“I wouldn’t be surprised,” Bauer told E! about Ball’s plan to have Pam swinging the other way. “I think she’s pansexual.” One character that she pointed out to be her potential love interest was Ginger. “There are so many hot ones, but I’ll pick Ginger. Ginger’s hot. Ginger’s fun. She’s a screamer and she’s a blood donor,” the actress stated her reason.

Elizabeth Mitchell dishes all about ‘V’ — and the ‘Lost’ romance she doubted at first.

On signing on to V:

“I heard there was a science-fiction pilot with a really strong female protagonist. There was also a strong antagonist. I didn’t want to be the antagonist again—I’d done that. The antagonist in V is very similar to my Juliet in that you don’t know what she’s thinking, and I would like to play a character that you do know what she’s thinking.… I love adventures with strong female protagonists, that’s all I read. So it was kind of a childhood fantasy to be able to do this. And the fact that they wanted me to do it was hilarious. And then the fact that it was ABC and that [I could shoot the pilot] while I was still filming Lost was even more bizarre.”

On the differences between Juliet and Erica:

“Juliet was sneaky, which was lovely. And lethal. Mainly because she didn’t have any barriers in her mind that kept her from violence. But I think Erica has all those barriers in place—she just happens to be very strong. So if it’s imperative, or if it has something to do with the greater good of her child, she’s able to use that, which I love.”

On Lost’s Sawyer-Juliet romance:

“That should not have worked! It’s crazy how good [Damon and Carlton] are. They can make anything they want to work, and they decided it would work. And it did.”

“In life, Josh and I play guitar and sing together and have a lovely time. There isn’t any chemistry between us personally, which we talked about. Nothing! But what we didn’t realize is essentially we are so similar and our moral code is so similar. We both absolutely will catch you if you fall. So when we started getting into it—it gives me chills just to think about—he caught me every time I jumped and I caught him when he jumped, and that made for something really interesting. So now he’s one of my favorites. It makes me happy to know that I’m going to be on camera with him. But it certainly didn’t start out that way. It started with me going, ‘Ugh. What a benign pairing that is! I mean, we’re both blond for God’s sake!’”

“I don’t think we realized we were really onto something until the scene in the kitchen [where Sawyer brings Juliet a flower]. And what you didn’t see on camera—we shot it but it didn’t air—was that he picked me up and carried me over to the sink and just started kissing me. We finished that and we both looked at each other. On-camera, the chemistry was there, and off-camera, it was us again.”

Exclusive Interview: SCOTT WOLF BEAMS ABOARD ‘V’ – THE REMAKE

iF MAGAZINE: How did you become involved with V? You had done THE NINE for ABC in 2006 – was the network actively looking to work with you again?

SCOTT WOLF: Actually, I had a deal with ABC, but it had already expired a year prior to the writers’ strike year, so at the time the [V] script came around, I was actually reading things from all over the place. This just happened to be the one that I loved the most. It’s nice to put the script down and pick up the phone and say, “Please find a way to get me involved in this project.”

iF: As Chad is a journalist, did you do any research into journalism?

WOLF: I studied journalism very briefly, before I switched majors in college. I was a broadcast journalism major for a moment, and thought it would be a really fun thing to do. I watch a lot of late-night cable news, so I’ve been picking up a lot of bits and pieces from some of the news people.

iF: And which way does your character go on the Visitors, pro or con?

WOLF: Well, pardon the innuendo, but he goes both ways on the Visitors. I think what’s fun about Chad is, while most of the world seems to be either breaking for or against, he’s straddling the fence in the middle, because based on his encounter with their leader, he’s incredibly skeptical, but there’s also potentially a lot to be gained for him personally. So instead of breaking for or against, he’s kind of hovering in the middle to see how it all plays out.
