True Blood star Michelle Forbes has reportedly expressed her displeasure at the series being snubbed by the Emmy Awards.
The actress, who plays Maryann Forrester on the vampire drama, said that there is "no glory" in award shows.
She told E!: "Excuse me, but f**k awards! That's not where the glory is. The glory is in the audience.
"That's who we tell the stories for. It's not for, with all due respect, the critics and not for the awards shows, but for the audience."
The 44-year-old recently revealed that her portrayal of the mysterious Bon Temps resident is open for interpretation and explained that she does not view her as a villain.
The second season finale of True Blood airs Sunday, September 13 on HBO.
