I think there's a lot of interesting stuff on TV. I feel much more optimistic about TV than I do about movies.

I'm a huge freak, and always have been. I spent the first part of my life trying really desperately not to be one, and it was just a waste of time. Alan Ball desperatelyfreakhuge Change image and share on social
Well, here's the thing with relationships on 'True Blood': Once they happen then you have to throw a monkey-wrench into them, because to have people be happy is not that exciting. Alan Ball bloodexcithappen Change image and share on social
