However mixed my reactions to Smith's movies, he is always awesome in this kind of extemporaneous monologue - easily equal to most stand-ups I can think of, often much funnier.

True Blood started production yesterday for its third season. Woohoo!

They've also just added a couple new characters. Theo Alexander will be playing Talbot, the "intensely beautiful" (based on the picture on the page below, I agree) vampire boyfriend of Russell Edgington, the vampire king of Mississippi.

Grant Bowler will play a werewolf named Coot who is the leader of a biker gang.

I haven;t caught up with the series yet, but I've read a few of the Sookie Stackhouse books. Has the character "Bubba" made an appearance on the show yet? He wasn't in season one, but should have been.

He may be a difficult character to cast, though, since he is ...

No Bubba yet.

With the dark tone of the TV series, I am not sure how well Bubba would work in the story line.

Charlaine Harris does a pretty good job of weaving the lighter moments into the books, but they haven't done that with the series.

Marshall Allman has also be cast as Sam Merlotte’s long-lost younger brother, Tommy Mickens.

I asked the Bubba question somewhere else after I'd read a few of the books. I was told that the showrunners have said there are no plans for Bubba because they don't think it would work on TV.

That makes me glad (though I haven't seen the show) because Bubba is among the stupidest things in the books.
