The fur is about to fly in Bon Temps! HBO has confirmed to us the report that Daniel Buran has been cast as a werewolf in the upcoming fourth season of True Blood.

Where does the new hairy beast fit in with the rest of the TB gang? Check out the breakdown, plus the rest of your TV news roundup...

Daniel will be playing Raoul, the Shreveport packmaster. Which means he'll be above Alcide (Joe Manganiello) in terms of werewolf rank. His role is described as "tough and intense," and he'll be recurring in at least seven episodes. Raoul's first appearance will be in episode 4.05, titled "I Hate You, I Love You." Guess we'll be getting a werewolf showdown as well as a witch war this season. True Blood is back in June, so prepare fangbangers!

Sister Wives: It's a good thing DVR's can handle more than one guilty pleasure show, because the date has been set. The second season of Sister Wives will premiere March 13, reports EW.com. Get ready for family trips, Halloween parties, and lots o' drama.

30 Rock: The Social Network's scribe, Aaron Sorkin, will guest as himself on an upcoming episode of 30 Rock. We like this.
