TRUE BLOOD HOOPLA

If you’ve been watching HBO’s True Blood, you’re familiar with characters Bill (Stephen Moyer) and Sookie (Anna Paquin). It’s taken almost a year for the two actors to confirm that they are a couple. Recently, they’ve also confirmed they’re planning to get married. Rumors have spread that Paquin is pregnant, which her rep denies. I don’t believe she’s really pregnant. However, I am happy for the couple and I think it was a good idea for them to initially keep the relationship under wraps. This allowed the show to excel on its own merit, instead of relying on publicity stunts. Well done!
Do you think Moyer and Paquin’s decision to hide their relationship helped the show?
