Today HBO launched a 'production blog,' HBO: Inside True Blood:
The blog, a behind-the-scenes effort, is authored by 'Gianna' who introduces herself as having worked 'for the extraordinary Alan Ball' for two years. She describes herself as being 'in the middle of things' and goes on to dish a very few small tidbits about what was going on BTS including that 'today’s call sheet includes the words hostage, bites, dinner and Eric. There is also a General Safety Memo When Working with Exotic Animals attached to the front,' she disclosed.
She goes on to urge True Blood fans to check back because you can expect weekly 'news on production, plus a little backdoor peek at how things work around here.'
Gianna wrote a great little post about Sookie Stackhouse's little yellow Honda car's identity crisis (Am I for driving, A stunt car? For being towed about?! Turns out, literally: All three!) as well as a 'quick Q&A' with Alan Ball:
Gianna: What are you most excited about this season?
Alan: I really love the Eric storyline.
Gianna: What's going to shock the fans?
Alan: What happens to Jason...throughout the whole season.
Gianna: Got any advice for fans that are chomping at the bit?
Alan: We're working as fast as we can! In the meantime, I recommend watching the Swedish film Let the Right One In and the Russian films Day Watch and Night Watch.

The only downside I can see from what otherwise seems like a great little fix for True Blood fans is the following disclaimer: 'This website is intended for viewing solely in the United States.'
Also amusing and ironic, is this caveat: "This website may contain adult content."
