Apparently Sam Merlotte's long lost brother, Tommy Mickens, is described as "a grungy but handsome man in his early 20's". He also seems to share Sam's shape- shifting tendancies.
There are of course new vamps joining the cast, including a Czechoslovakian dancer named Yvetta who gets all clingy with Eric (back off bitch), Franklin Mott, who tangles with Tara, Talbot who helps Bill out of a jam and an orderly named Jusus Velasquez. All gorgeous, naturally.
Tara's mother also starts dating the reverend. Weird? Yes. But that's the "True Blood" we know and love.
