Here is a link to the TB writers interview at the Paley center last night, but it does not contain alot of the points I have read on this thread.

I'd say probably most if not all of those at some point. I really hope the show lasts long enough to see Quinn *fingers crossed*

I've always said that while B/S are the main couple on the show Ball will continue to talk them up. That's just good marketing.

But you can see the shift starting since S2 ended. He references their "problems" in every interview now. A year ago he never breathed a word. He's talking more about E/S - he said on the red carpet at Paley that watching their attraction grow was one his favourite aspects of S2.

Bill and Sookie continue to have a connection in the books after they split up so I don't see this statement as earth-shattering. It's evident that connection is still there, even in book 9. But it's just not a romantic connection any more.

I don't really see him as a minor character, even in later books. He does fade into the background but when major stuff is going down, he is nearly always around (even if it's lurking in the bushes *snicker*).

Sounds like Ball did actually read the books...I was starting to wonder.

lol
By troubles could he mean Alcide, then Eric, then Quinn, a Fey, then Eric again? Or could it be the secret?

Connection does not necessarily mean together as a couple, Hell, I have connections with my x husband and a few x boyfriends but that does not mean we love each other or are doing the nasty.

Will not be marginalized--could just mean he will have his own storyline and not be the minor player he becomes in the books.
We will just have to wait to see what ABs definitions are over the next few years. Unless someone has a crystal ball:^O

I was coming to post those spoilers but I'm happy to see they're already here. *does a little happy dance*

I'm happy at the thought of the Newlins returning, more Pam, Jason falling in with a 'bad' crowd(hello Weres,) Sam's brother, more Godric and of course Alan confirms that Eric will get amnesia in season 4.

You are correct Aaine. it was confirmed but some folks have selective hearing when something does not fit their view. We will need to link the youtube or transcript when it comes out so we can avoid the "troll-ing"

Yup...the "don't go there" part was for the pink spandex item.......there will probably be some more write ups in the morning..I'll post links as soon as I find the finalized ones...

Different question - someone said could we have Eric w/amnesia in pink spandex and he said "don't go there".

Confirmed the S4 amnesia in a different question.

I read two different accounts that said it would happen. A fan asked if he could get amnesia wearing pink spandex and that is when he said, "don't even go there." Or, at least, that is what I read.

You had better not be making this up! Especially the amnesia in S4. I was really worried he would give it to Bill.

As for S3, I am just going to have to look both ways before I cross the street between now and June because, if I get killed before seeing Eric in episode 1, I...will...be...pissed!
