TrueBlood-Spoilers

Will Terry and Arlene still be together when we return for Season 3 of True Blood? — Anna

MICKEY: Yep. Executive producer Alan Ball told us that the happy couple “will make a surprising discovery that will bring them closer together.” Translation: All that free lovin’ they did under Maryann’s spell will result in an unplanned pregnancy. I hope the baby has hair that looks like a sunset after a bomb went off. [Source: TV Guide]

Did Alan Ball give any hints about who is going to die next season on True Blood? — Andy

MICKEY: Ball, the show’s executive producer, plays a great game of “Not Gonna Tell,” as we learned the hard way. But after consulting the official Mega Buzz Facial Cues Reader, we’re going with Maxine Fortenberry and not Lorena. [Source: TV Guide]

True Blood – Episode 2.12 – Beyond Here Lies Nothinʼ
Air Date: Sunday, September 13, 2009

Here’s the description for the season 2 finale of True Blood. It looks like things will be very intense and I can’t wait! Here’s what we can expect:

Press Release:
The mayhem in Bon Temps reaches a fever pitch as Maryann (Michelle Forbes) prepares for her ultimate bestial sacrifice, conscripting Sookie (Anna Paquin) to be maid of honor at the bloody nuptials. Meanwhile, Sophie-Anne (Evan Rachel Wood) warns Eric (Alexander Skarsgard) to keep the lid on Billʼs (Stephen Moyer) inquisitiveness; Jason (Ryan Kwanten) leads Andy (Chris Bauer) into the heroic abyss; and Hoyt (Jim Parrack) has a hard time swallowing Maxineʼs (Dale Raoul) endless stream of insults. Deliberating on what may be his final move to save Sookie and the town, Sam (Sam Trammell) is forced to put his trust, and his life, in a most unlikely ally.

Sookie and the others try to figure out what to do about the scratches people in Bon Temps have been getting. I love how the “walking hormone” Jason’s ears perk up when there is just a mention of a new waitress at Merlotte’s. LOL!
