A scene is not always shot as imagined in the first script. Often there are rewrites of scenes as the first white script is complemented with pink and blue versions. The trunk scene of Bill and Eric is an example of how the original text was edited into the final product that we saw in the season premiere of season 5. The scene was a favorite for protagonists Alexander Skarsgård and Stephen Moyer.
Director Dan Minahan describes his most frustrating directorial moment: “In the trunk, Stephen and Alex both got really bad church giggles and couldn’t stop laughing. I wanted to cry. “

I hope they will make a “blooper” show of True Blood one day — that would be a hoot!

I’ll be early in line when the True Blood bloopers tape comes out.

OMG! it really is a shame they didn’t shoot it as written. Just reading it, I laughed my head off. It would have been hilarious, especially with Alex and Stephen.
And I must say, I just love Stephens sense of humour, that little interview was a hoot.

Stephen is hilarious! He tells the story with just enough seriousness, that for a second or two you’re wondering if what he’s saying is true!
It’s been leaked that the director couldn’t get enough footage for the scene because the two actors were laughing too much!
