"#TrueBlood: Live From the Set will reward our devotees by allowing them to both participate in and affect the live broadcast through a unique intersection of linear television and digital media."

Additionally, HBO's top True Blood fans will be featured in the broadcast through a never-before-done execution with Twitter and powered by Mass Relevance. All they need to do is follow @TrueBloodHBO on Twitter for info on how to prove they are a #TopTruebie.

Based on the popular Sookie Stackhouse books by Charlaine Harris, the Emmy(R) and Golden Globe(R)-winning hit series was created by Alan Ball, creator of HBO's Emmy(R)-winning series Six Feet Under.
