This is my first thread so if this has been discussed before I pray forgiveness. Does Anyone think Alan Ball will introduce the Bubba character? In a way I find him very entertaining in the books but dont think it will come across well on the series? Any thoughts anyone??

Dict: the "Bubba question" has been asked numerous times and each time I answer the same way: Alan Ball has said no, on the question if we'll see Bubba~it has to do with his respect for the King, and he also says he won't hire a 'Cheap Presley impersonator. Another reason is the Presley Estate holds the rights to Elvis's image": It all comes down to the almighty dollar.

Marleneemm I completely understand where AB is coming from and think it only works well in the books because the power of the imagination is a far more capable of that kinda feat then CG

Judithholofernes: Stephen Moyer's natural accent is something~~But have you heard Ryan's accent? or even Alex's: You heard in the scenes in Dallas when the group was in Godric's suite when he got mad and threw the vase at STAN/Isabel!

Well I guess that was the quickest death of a thread ever LOL Thank you for the welcome guys I think SM does a brilliant 'elvis' accent - I nearly passed out when I heard him talking in his native barrow boy accent LOL

Judithholofernes: Sorry, Judith~AlanBall says we're not going to see Bubba due to the fact he won't use a cheap Elvis impersonator~and he's got way too much respect for Elvis's memory. The other problem was with the Presley Estate who hold the rights to Elvis's image.
