'True Blood' reunion coming to ABC's 'GCB' -- EXCLUSIVE

GRANT-BOWLER

Two guys from True Blood are set to spice up ABC’s midseason drama GCB. Kevin Alejandro and Grant Bowler both signed deals to appear in the show’s debut season, and will even share an episode.

GCB (formally titled Good Christian Bitches Belles) has cast Alejandro as Danny — a local butcher who offers to supply meat for Booby-licious (that’s a Hooters-like restaurant in the show) on the condition that Marisol Nichols’ character Heather goes on a date with him.

Alejandro is in one episode, while Bowler will appear in at least two — playing Mason Massey, a “frozen foods magnate and thoroughbred horse breeder.” Sparks fly when Bowler meets with Cricket (Miriam Shor) to negotiate stud fee for his prize horse.

Booby-licious? Dating for brisket? TV dinner-making horse breeders? Okay, these descriptions have us really intrigued. GCB is from Robert Harling (Steel Magnolias) and producer Darren Star (Sex and the City). There’s no premiere date yet, but here’s the show’s trailer:

    They both also had recurring roles on Ugly Betty, but not at the same time.

      RIP, Santos.

    Are they still really just calling it GCB? Might be one of the worst decisions I’ve ever seen.

      No kidding. GCB sounds like a date rape drug.

      Hmm… Interesting. In Australia it’s being advertised that Good Christian Bit**es is stating in 2012 so it just seems it’s changing it’s title only in it’s home.

    I love Kevin Alejandro, but for some reason he gets killed off of EVERY show. Not cool.

    if people didnt like the playboy club, they are not gonna go for this! it looks hilarious but im thinking its gonna have a hard time! the same ones that were offended by the playboy club will be offended by their portrayal of “good christian belles” i’ll watch and see…

  • aleksa

    Is it really a “reunion” if their characters never appeared together?

  • Yikes

    With all the religion in CBS’s reality shows this week, I’m not watching anything with the word Christian in the title!

    That Grant Bowler was HOT on “True Blood”. Next to Alcide, he was the hottest guy on the show! Hope to see a lot more of that body!!

    Great article. I can¡¯t wait to hear more about your research tool. If it is as good as your other products, then you will have another winner. Your article pretty much summed up what I have been seeing too. Great to see some hard data.
