HBO has officially announced the premiere date for True Blood Season 6, and confirmed previous reports that this season would have fewer episodes:
"The debut date for the sixth season of the hit HBO series True Blood has been confirmed. The ten-episode season of True Blood kicks off SUNDAY, JUNE 16 at (9:00-10:00 p.m. ET/PT). Based on the popular Sookie Stackhouse books by Charlaine Harris, this Emmy®-nominated hit drama series was created by Alan Ball, creator of HBO’s Emmy®-winning series “Six Feet Under.” The show follows waitress and part-faerie Sookie Stackhouse (Anna Paquin), who can hear people’s thoughts, vampire Bill Compton (Stephen Moyer) and vampire Eric Northman (Alexander Skarsgård)."
As previously reported, a number of new actors have joined the cast, including Rutger Hauer, Arliss Howard, Jurnee Smollett-Bell, Amelia Rose Blaire, Karolina Wydra, and Luke Grimes. Like last year, expect plenty of details and content from the new season in May. If you need to catch up on True Blood, Season 5 will be released on May 21st.
