"[She's] a fun, free country-girl [...] She has set her sights on Sam [...] she's very flirty and you know, she seduces him."During the interview, Ashley conveyed the rewarding experience of working with Alan Ball,
"[...] His mind is brilliant, there's really no other way to explain it [...] The way that his imagination works, and his sense of humor [...] he views the world through a very specific lens and I am honored to be a part of it [...] He goes so deep and it get so dark but at the same time [keeping it] very light and fluffy [...] True Blood is very dark but [...] there is a very fun aspect to it [...] The whole vampire thing [...] there is a lot of romance and fun."The Second Season of True Blood is currently being aired in France on Orange Cinema.
