Grownup Clothes

You may have noticed that in this season of 'True Blood,' Sookie looks a little bit, well ... hotter. It's not just your imagination. "Sookie is growing up, becoming more womanly," says costume designer Audrey Fisher, "and also trying to please her vampire boyfriend, who happens to be a bit old-fashioned since he's 173 years old. So, yes, her style has evolved. She's become confident in her sexuality and that shows in how she dresses for both Bill and herself, but still she will always be a ladylike Southern belle, flirty and feminine but never too brassy. And that works for Bill." (photo: Jeffrey Ufberg/WireImage.com)

Blast From the Past

They say you can never go home again. Unless you're buddies with Larry David, that is. When the cast of Seinfeld agreed to stage a fake reunion on 'Curb,' the canceled show's sets were dusted off and reassembled at the CBS lot. "The best analogy is a snow globe," says Jerry Seinfeld. "You're walking into a miniature fake environment that has been recreated. As I told people about it, I could go back in your life 10 years and recast your friends, recreate where you live, everything in it exactly how it was, and now somebody with a headset points at you and you walk in now, and there it was, and you go, 'Jesus Christ, this is my old life!' We all felt like it was a very special experience. Just to go back in time in life is a fantasy." (photo: Jeffrey Ufberg/WireImage.com)

By Any Other Name

When Jonathan Ames wrote the short story that spawned HBO's new comedy series 'Bored to Death,' giving the main character his own name was a way to live vicariously through his own fiction. Now that Jason Schwartzman has brought the hero to life onscreen, Ames is experiencing a bit of a mind meld with the actor: "He shares a lot of my DNA. It's more like a cousin, you know? But Jason is like such an amazing artist - he's a songwriter, so he could play a writer — and I just think he's like an old soul, so he's very much a muse. I'm inspired by Jason, because I just want to see how he's going to handle things, and he's very comedic. He's a great physical comedian." (photo: Scott Gries/Getty Images)

We'll Call It Research

Eastbound & Down star Danny McBride has finally put his own substitute teaching career behind him ("I think I was subbing like for a German class or something ... I don't speak German.") So, how's he adjusting to his newfound fame and fortune? "I guess the main difference is I'm just not worried about how I'm going to pay for my car insurance or health insurance anymore," he says. "I mean, I've still surrounded myself with all the guys that, you know, that I went to school with, and we all hang out together. And so, you know, my personal life hasn't really changed that much since before all this began. I think I can just rest easier that I'm not bouncing checks right and left anymore. I was always living in overdraft when I was in L.A. It was hard not to. I mean, I was just PA'ing or waiting tables, doing whatever I could do to kind of make ends meet."

Comic Relief

Mike McMillian, who plays the fire-and-brimstone Rev. Steve Newlin on 'True Blood,' had quite the weekend at Comic-Con, where he not only joined his castmates to promote the show but also unveiled his own new comic book. "I have to say, I think I was more geeked out about being at Comic-Con announcing a comic, you know, which is something that is the other thing I wanted to do my whole life." So, what does a horror show star draw when he's not busy playing an onscreen zealot? "It takes place in an alternate universe where major world powers have black ops agents working for them that are trained in the mystic arts, sorcery and magic," he says. "So it's kind of like this world where James Bond has been matched up with Harry Potter in a way, and magicians are working in the interest of national security."
