Season 4 Spoiler Alert: Everyone's Favorite Maker Returns

Godric to Come Back in Season 4  

AHyde GodricMichael Ausiello of TV Line has just learned that Godric played by the wonderful Allan Hyde will be returning in Season 4!  You may recall that we did see Godric at the end of season three, where he appeared as an apparition of sorts to his troubled progeny Eric (Alexander Skarsgård). Of the return, Ausiello had this to say:

True Blood EP Alan Ball isn't offering too many clues, except to say that fans will see "a different side of Godric."

A different side huh? I wonder what that could mean? More flashbacks perhaps?  There is no word on the specifics of Allan Hyde's return in terms of when it will occur in the season or for how long.  But stay tuned Truebies; TBN will have any and all information if and when it is released! So what do you think Godric will be up to this season? Tell us in the comments section below! Source: TVLine.com- "True Blood Exclusive: Look Who's Returning!" (Image Credit: HBO, Inc.)

Ask Dr. L -- Healthy Addiction?

For a small fortune (and the promise of a steady supply of medicinal quality V) TrueBloodNet.com has gotten Dr. L to agree to answer your supernatural medical questions. Ask Dr. L is written by Dr. L (any resemblance to any characters living, dead or undead is purely coincidental), also known as Doctor to the Supernaturals, and was founded by her mother, Philine Paullips. It is the most popular and widely syndicated supernatural medical advice column in this world — or any other. Known for its uncommon nonsense and immortal, or just darn old, perspective. February 22, 2011 Dear Dr. L, With the flu season hitting the humans hard, most of the humans I have been dining with have had the flu vaccine in them. This has given their blood and very unique and wonderful flavor. I fear I may be getting addicted to the new flavor and have very little hope of going back to the regular flavor. I was wondering if you might know where I can get some flu vaccine to use or how I might wean myself off this new flavor? Regards, In Perfect Health Dear Healthy Friend, You know, of course, that I wouldn't care if the whole lot of you took a sunbathing vacation and obliterated yourselves, except that I need your blood for it's healing properties. Otherwise, I would try to add some garlic juice to some flu vac and give it to you. Drat! What's a doctor to do? So, call me and set up an appointment. We'll trade- your blood for a supply of flu vaccine, sans garlic. It won't be an even trade, mind you- I have staff to pay and all. But it will be as fair as I can be with low lifeless scum.

Joe Manganiello Answers Fan Questions at Eyecon 2010

Joe Manganiello, True Blood Alcide, at Eyecon 2010

While at Eyecon 2010, Joe Manganiello had a fan Q&A in which he discussed several topics, including his interest in True Blood, the process it took for him to become Alcide, and much, much more. Check out what went on in the Q&A below. Joe Manganiello: Good morning. Do we have any questions? Guest Pictures? All right, then I guess I'll talk a little bit. I was a huge, huge fan of True Blood. When the show came on the air, I watched it when it premiered. I had no idea it was based on this series of books. I got an email from one of my best friends, who said "You've gotta check this out!" I checked this little web link and it took me to a blog site and fans of Charlaine Harris' books were blogging about their fantasy casts and who should play all of the characters when they show up in certain seasons and there were a bunch of fans who were posting pictures of me and saying I should play this werewolf when he shows up. I went wait a minute, there are werewolves in this story? I loved the werewolves in the old Lon Chaney Jr. horror movies since I was a kid. So I went to Amazon and ordered the books and started reading them. Sure enough, I read the description of the character where Sookie opens the door and looks up and has to look up again and there's this giant, dark haired guy with long, untameable black hair and said if he'd shaved in the morning, he'd haveto shave again. I thought, okay, I can do that. Then it said that Charlaine described him as having biceps the size [...]
