VIDEO: Snoop Dogg Professes His Love for Sookie Stackhouse

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, Prime Time, Sci-Fi/Horror, Cable, HBO, Video,

Snoop Dogg might not get a chance to play a vampire in True Blood anytime soon, but he did just pay a special visit to Bon Temps.

If you failed to watch past the credits after last night’s episode, you may have missed Snoop’s musical love letter to Merlotte’s own telepathic waitress. In “Oh Sookie,” the rapper sings: “Oh Sookie, can I take you away?/ You ever been to LA?/ Come and play on my team / We’ll do it in the daytime / Bill won’t know a thing.”

Watch Longer True Blood Season 3 Trailer

Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Drama, Prime Time, Sci-Fi/Horror, HBO, News, Video,

If you were confused by the first trailer for True Blood‘s upcoming third season, perhaps this new, extended one can provide some insight…

I, for one, am extremely relieved to know somewhat who the bearded guy on the bed with Sookie is. Will Jason actually do something productive this season? Perhaps most importantly, who can resist a trailer with so much Eric?

Fans can catch the HBO season premiere on June 13.

If you want to see what happens during Season 3 (rather than before it), check out the new True Blood trailer above.

If those thirty seconds weren’t enough, you can then check out Minisodes #2 and #3 after the jump.

Getting Into Character: Freshly Shorn Adrian Grenier on Entourage

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Prime Time, Cable, HBO, Entourage, Gossip,

It’s. About. Freaking. Time.

Although I have enjoyed many things about Entourage, there is one thing that’s always bothered me: Adrian Grenier‘s hair. I have never understood why women would throw themselves at a man with a mop like that.

Well - based on these pictures of Grenier on set of his HBO show in Los Angeles, it appears a change has finally come. Now if they could just tame Vincent Chase’s eyebrows…

Season 7 of Entourage will begin later this summer.
