Alan: Hi Everybody.

All: Hi!

Tracy from Fancast: Hi Alan. Thanks for doing this.

Alan: Absolutely!

Tracy from Fancast: You mentioned in another interview that this season was just going to be more of everything. The show is already incredibly sexy and gory. So what can you tell us about what MORE we can look forward to, there’s already a lot.

Alan: Believe it or not, the show is sexier and gorier. I think it’s also funnier and I think it’s also deeper. I feel that the show is finding it’s identity and settling into itself in a way that’s very organic. It definitely feels to me as if things are ramping up for season 2.

Tracy from Fancast: For those that haven’t read the books, last season the story plot was a serial killer and this season a mysterious creature. Is each chapter of the season going to be a different mystery?

Alan: We are basing show on a book and serial of a very, very successful minor novel by Charlaine Harris. And there is an element of mystery in each book. But it’s more than just that. That’s just part of the mix. There’s also an up story, there’s also horror, there’s also some stuff that’s funny. I wouldn’t say that each season revolves around a mystery because, for example, the first season, we the audience did not know who the serial killer was. We were trying to figure it out at the same time Sookie was trying to figure it out. In this season, as the show progresses, we know that there is a character who’s really up to no good and who is dangerous, long before any of the other characters in the show know it. It’s a little bit of a split in that regard.

Tracy from Fancast: Thank you!
