Extra, Extra, True Blood Gets in on the Act

There are two new videos up on HBO True Blood. This will autoplay the music video first.  Hey HBO owns it so I guess its their prerogative. And, right now they probably don't want Eclipse stealing all their thunder. I love Hype Wars!

It occurs to me that noone under 40 understands the meaning of "Extra, extra, read all about it!"  Before the internet and even before TV (yes the middle ages) when news only moved as fast as the radio, newspapers would print an "extra" edition when something big happened. It was the equivalent of a "Special Report." You know, "We interrupt the program you want to watch to tell you about the President's colonoscopy."


Well, this is better than a colonoscopy*. Joe Manganiello, who will be playing werewolf Alcide (above - Although Joe will only turn 34 this December: Taylor Lautner that six pack is harder when you aren't 18 years old! ) is my new online crush, and I think perhaps the quest for the Stephanie Plum Mysteries', Joe Morelli should end at his door.  Janet Evanovich doesn't follow my blog, (or, does she?) but check this guy out! Yeah, I was bad and snagged this shot out of an Italian newspaper  but in the spirit of fair use:  TV Shows 4 Fans – Telefilm USA-ITA, Reality e tanto altro…Tutte le News della Tv a portata di click… (Reality and "more", All the TV news brought to you wth a Click). They did a great job and I had to clip out a papparazzi shot of him which was too explicit.

I think there is some major chemistry between Anna and Joe (plays Alcide). 

The classic hip hop Snoop is putting down that I'm picking up in this music video is possibly more explicit than sex on the show or on the Tudors ( there is one bleep)! Well, Sookie does have lots of free time during the day.

Enjoy! Tomorrow is the start of the Book Bloggers Hop hosted by Crazy-for-Books.



*Some of you may not have been born when President Reagan's colonoscopy revealed polyps and we were treated to models of how it all worked during the nightly news.

  1. If I was Sookie and took one look at Alcide (played by Joe), I'd probably say, "Bill who?" LOL!

    I was a teen during the 80s, but I don't remember the president's colonoscopy...however, that probably just means I've blocked it out!!

    See you at the Blog Hop!

  2. That is a lovely individual. :)

    And I agree wholeheartedly - he would make a great Morelli.

  3. *sigh* it actually pained me to click on the post comment button. That is certainly my flavor of eye-candy!

    I know how I'm going to be spending my summer. Eric actually has some competition me thinks!

    Though I was a baby of the 80's, I do remember some TV interruptions in the 90's on British TV for some random things lol.

    And yes, Joe Manganiello is definitely better than a colonoscopy!
