The Prognosis: HBO looks after its own, so when it came time for the rugged blue-collar excellence of Chris Bauer to get all ham'n'cheese as a bumbling redneck, the network made it happen and now we have True Blood's Andy Bellefleur. Frank Sobotka was the elegy for the working class; Andy Bellefleur is the working class redneck slipping on a banana peel—with vampires, too. We'll take it.
