True Blood Executive Producer Alexander Woo Defends Bill

Executive Producer of the HBO Television Series ‘True Blood’ Alexander Woo chats with The Hollywood Reporter about season 4 and everything that has happened since with Eric, Sookie, Bill, and many others. Here’s an excerpt of Mr. Woo defending Bill:

THR: Some fans have still not forgiven Bill for all that he has done to Sookie in service to the former queen. Do you and the other writers believe you’ve done a good job of portraying Bill as someone Sookie can still be in love with?

Woo: I still think we feel very strongly that he was Sookie’s first love, and there’s something always very special about your first love. It wasn’t all that long ago either. It’s a very recent first love that was very, very deep. Even though there are all these things that have happened in the interim in the time of the show, we’ve had four seasons since they first met — but in their world, a little over a year. I think it still resonates that there is this awakening that came about in her life with Bill, and he will always be a very special part of her life. I think in the world that [creator Alan Ball] has created Bill is certainly going to be a part of that world.
