ALAN BALL SPILLS 9 SIZZLING TRUE BLOOD SPOILERS
Alan Ball has a promise for True Blood viewers. The characters in his randy, violent, supernatural series aren’t going to experience long-term happiness anytime soon.
“Here’s the thing about happiness: It’s great in our lives, but it’s not really that interesting to watch on television,” said creator Ball, whose series is about to premiere its third season on HBO on June 13.
Ball feels season three is “the best season yet.” Along with the “fantastic core cast,” several new regulars will be introduced this season, as well as a number of impressive guest stars, such as Alfre Woodard, who plays Lafayette’s mother.
