• Defictionalization: Of a sort - you can buy TruBlood in the real world, but it's a blood orange flavor drink, not synthetic blood.
• Fake American: The actors who play Sookie (Anna Paquin, from New Zealand via Canada), Jason (Ryan Kwanten, from Australia), Bill (Stephen Moyer, from England), as well as some recurring characters such as the magister (Željko Ivanek, from Yugoslavia) and Marnie (Fiona Shaw, from Ireland).
• The Other Darrin:
  • Carolina Bellefleur was recast between her appearances in Seasons 4 and 6. Incidentally, this came with a marked change in personality from an elegant and good-natured Grande Dame to an overbearing senile Racist Grandma.
  • James was recast with Nathan Parsons in the final season due to previous actor Luke Grimes not wanting to do a gay romance storyline.
• The Other Marty: Tara was originally going to be played by Brook Kerr; her scenes in the pilot were re-shot with replacement Rutina Wesley.
• Romance on the Set: Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer are married in real life.
• What Could Have Been: According to the Ultimate Fan Experience Q&A shown before the third season premiere, Alexander Skarsgaard had originally auditioned for the role of Bill, not Eric. Imagine that.
  • Katee Sackhoff was approached for the role of Debbie Pelt. Sadly, she turned it down.
