FLARE - "How does the show test you as an actor?  Let me count the ways…I shot a gun, rode a coffin, had a chair thrown at my head, carried a dead body, gave injections with elephant-size syringes, had sex on a throne, invented Shreveport’s first and only vampire bar, was human snack machine to God knows how many sets of fangs, projectile vomited, had my mind read and erased and played nurse, guard dog, and bartender, all in heels and all the while screaming at the top of my lungs..."

Huff Post asked Tara about everything from ghost encounters, pet peeves, worst jobs to most unusual talent and it definitely made a perfectly Odd Ball Interview! 

"Everyone who has seen Sunday's episode of True Blood "Love is to Die" knows that Ginger scored a major victory this week. The result was one of the series' greatest-ever, and certainly one of its funniest scenes.

The strung-out, over-glamored, bar-slinging fangbanger we all know and love is played by the lovely and hysterical Tara Buck. After speaking with Carrie Preston (Arlene) last week, I jumped at the chance to chat with her this week, but, for fun, I wanted to ask her a few questions she's probably never been asked. The very questions I imagine Ginger asks when Fangtasia's hiring new staff."

“I understood Ginger right away and felt like she was fun and wonderful in such a way that there were no limitations on how weird she could be,” notes the actress. “Fortunately, Alan specifically set the groundwork with each of our characters to the point where we felt we could do anything with them. He then took what we were doing, which Alan also always strongly supported, and used it to shape and develop our characters.

This season is definitely six years of a payoff for me, and I hope it is six years of a payoff for the audience, too, which I think it will be."

The Hollywood Reporter - 'True Blood's ' Tara Buck on Ginger's Backstory and Infatuation With Eric (Q&A)

THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER - "The latest episode of True Blood's flashback-heavy final season delved into the origin of Fangtasia — and its dim-witted barmaid, Ginger (Tara Buck).

It was Ginger who convinced Pam (Kristin Bauer van Straten) to turn her and Eric's (Alexander Skarsgard) hole-in-the-wall video store into the vampire bar where, in the HBO drama's first season, Bill (Stephen Moyer) would take Sookie (Anna Paquin). She even had the idea for the throne on which Eric sits, calling him "sex on a throne," before Pam glamoured her and took credit for the plan.

Buck, a new series regular this season, tells The Hollywood Reporter that this isn't the last viewers will see of Ginger. "You really get her infatuation with Eric" in this season, she says. "It is something she has spent her life on every day, from morning to night, some day having either a sexual encounter or at least being validated in some way by him. I think that becomes her sole mission in life."

Huffington Post - Still Screaming After All These Years

"It is not at all unusual for a standout recurring character in a television series, or even a guest star, to transition into a series regular after a year or two. Boyd Crowder (Walton Goggins) had been doomed to die in the first hour of Justifiedand has now completed over 60 episodes. Glee's antagonist Sue Sylvester (Jane Lynch) was meant to merely recur. On Nashville, actors Will Chase and Oliver Hudson recurred in season 2 and will be upped to series regulars in the fall. Amir Arison, a guest star on The Blacklist, has been promoted to series regular... Martin Sheen initially contracted for a four-episode arc on The West Wing to portray President Bartlet. On True Blood, the lusty young vampire Jessica Hamby (Deborah Ann Woll), a first season guest star, became a series regular for all subsequent seasons.


That is why I am so intrigued by the rare trajectory of her cast-mate, Tara Buck. Tara played a recurring character in season 1. And season 2. And season 3. And in every season until now, the HBO hit's seventh and final season. Starting June 22,True Blood viewers will finally greet Tara Buck as a series regular after six years! This is almost supernatural in the annals of Hollywood lore. Ginger ('she who screams'), the human vampire groupie, former Fangtasia waitress, and frequent comic relief, will be a central character in the final ten episodes."

"Tara is not a Louisiana bayou denizen like Ginger, but a native of Ketchum, Idaho, the land of Hemingway, where her parents met as "ski bums." Raised by her single mother, she grew into a stage-struck girl who moved to California immediately after high school to study at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts conservatory. After graduation, there were challenging theatre jobs on both coasts and more training at the Beverly Hills Playhouse where she learned, "You have to find the humor." She explains, "You can walk your character in any situation as long as you have some humor about it."
