Debbie Pelt (Brit Morgan) - Sookie's nemesis

(via)

“PW: Your first episode teased a Sookie/Alcide connection — how does their relationship develop this season?

Joe: [laughs] … Alcide’s in a dark, lonely, sad, heartbroken place because his psycho ex fiance, Debbie Pelt, has left him but….and is still floating around, causing trouble. Then …Sookie is going through her trials and tribulations with Bill. I think if you stick people in that situation – this big, strong, protective bodyguard with a girl, both heartbroken, sparks will happen…

PW:You mentioned Alcide’s ex, Debbie, earlier — can we expect fireworks when they get together?

Joe: Yes, they have a very volatile relationship… there was a lot of passion, but now that things have gone sideways…hey get back into it very quickly.

PW: Sounds like Debbie and Sookie are polar opposites.

Alcide's ex, Debbie Pelt (Brit Morgan)

Joe: They are… I think Sookie represents the woman Alcide wants to be with, that he wishes he could be with whereas Debbie represents where he came from.

PW: Do you have a particular favorite episode from season three?
Joe: I think episode 7 is pretty amazing.

PW: Why?
Joe: [laughs] Uh, there’s a lot of blood and a lot of people die.

Joe Manganiello "Alcide Herveaux"

PW: Fair enough. You just wrapped production on season three. Is the finale a cliffhanger like as last year’s?

Joe: …Waaaay worse. You have no idea what they’re going to spring on you in season three… You’ve got the introduction of my race and a lot about where Sookie comes from.

They answer a lot of questions and in answering those questions they open up a whole new universe. It’s pretty wild.”

While True Blood‘s Bill is off dealing with his own enemies, Sookie has a brand-new nemesis of her own.

Debbie Pelt (Brit Morgan), a crazed V-addicted werewolf who’s engaged to pack leader Cooter (Grant Bowler), still has unresolved feelings about her ex-boyfriend, Alcide (Joe Manganiello).

So seeing Sookie (Anna Paquin) around Alcide, Morgan tells TVGuide.com, “pretty much sparks a murderous rampage in her head.”

TVGuide.com: How does it feel getting to join such a hot cast?
Morgan: It’s such a beautiful cast… At the first table read, I could barely think straight. Everyone is just so easy going, despite how good-looking they are.

TVGuide.com: Tell us about your character, Debbie Pelt.
Morgan: Debbie Pelt is a really kick-ass, passionate, ballsy woman. I’m a werewolf with a bit of an addiction to V, so I’m going on a rampage against Sookie. I’m not too happy with her. My character just takes this winding road, a bit of a downward spiral. I’m definitely in attack mode towards Sookie.

TVGuide.com: Did you read the Sookie Stackhouse novels before being cast?
Morgan: Once I was cast, I read two of them. Just the ones I was involved in. I’m not sure … but I think Debbie is much different [in the show] than in the books… I got to do whatever I wanted with her. There’s nothing better than playing crazy when everyone else is just encouraging it.

TVGuide.com: The stakes are so much higher this year because the werewolves and vampires don’t get along and are both powerful….
Morgan:… but that’s great because up until this point it’s been vampires ruling the planet.. [but]

There are two other sets of mystical creatures you’ll be introduced to toward the end of the season. There are fairies and there are going to be witches. (Brit Morgan “Debbie Pelt”)
