Charlaine Harris who? You may not think you know her, but if it wasn’t for Charlaine Harris and her creation of Sookie Stackhouse, we wouldn’t have HBO’s True Blood. Charlaine sat down with us at Dragon*Con in Atlanta, Georgia this past weekend to answer a few questions that we were dying to know.

With yet another wonderful piece of casting news, HBO’s adaptation of George R.R. Martin’s Game of Thrones continues to impress with the addition of Sarah Connor star Lena Heady as Queen Cersei Lannister.

In the first bit of casting news for HBO’s “Game of Thrones,” the production absolutely nails it with the addition of Peter Dinklage and Tom McCarthy.

Rome. Now there was a television series! HBO knocked it out of the ballpark with its lavish take on ancient Rome in those crazy days of the ascendancy of Julius Caesar, the battles between Mark Antony and Octavian, the man who would be Augustus during the glory days of Rome.

The gang returns home to New York City, but Hollywood seems to follow. Vince’s mom tells him and Eric that Gus Van Sant is in town and in need of a replacement for Joaquin Phoenix due to an injury.

Bill fulfills the sentence handed down to him by the Vampire hierarchy, creating a new challenge for himself to the tune of a rebellious new vampire. Elsewhere, Sookie seeks comfort and protection in the arms of shape-shifter Sam while the killer strikes again, dumping Jason Stackhouse right back into hot water.

Vince takes Verner’s criticisms from last week to heart, but the director ends up firing Vince on the spot.

Vince gets humiliated on the set of Smokejumpers with a shrinking number of lines and a passive-aggressive director. Eric gets humiliated by Seth Green while trying to close a deal for another client.

Chill out, Mainstream Media. We’ve already trademarked the word, “Barackumentary.”

Vince’s first day on the set of Smokejumpers starts with a dickish Drama, includes feelings of nervousness, and ends with a realization that Vince’s career has sunk so low that Jason Patric actually carries more weight.

Ari finally shows interest in Eric’s screenwriters and their script, but it may be too late. The writing duo see this additional interest and decide that they should be making more money. Drama has come to terms with his recent break-up and is preparing to make an appearance on The View.

After the discovery of Dawn’s murder, Jason Stackhouse again finds himself the prime suspect in what appear to be a series of vampire related killings.

Yes this title is about a penis. Yes you want to read this article. No, that doesn’t make us feel awkward.

I feel a bit odd heaping praise on the film – even more odd than attending the 400+ person screening with our illustrious Executive Editor Neil Miller and being two of only about a dozen guys in the house. But there’s a lot of good things in this movie.

There are some movie goers, I assume mostly women, who are checking off their calendars until the day the film version of the HBO series “Sex and the City” hits the theaters. In anticipation of this event Fancast.com conducted a Facebook poll about the upcoming film and its cast and characters.
