‘True Blood’ season 6 spoilers: Alexander Skarsgard’s revenge plan continues
After seeing the death of (spoiler alert!) his “sister” Nora on “True Blood” Sunday night, Eric Northman is about to become a little bit more similar to another TV character whose name starts with an E: Emily Thorne. Specifically, he’s going to be out for a little bit of revenge against those humans running the Louisiana vampire camp that infected her with Hepatitis V in the first place.
The upcoming ninth episode of season 6 carries with it the title of “Life Matters,” and it has the unfortunate challenge first of all of airing against the return of “Breaking Bad” on August 11. Also, there is another challenge coming in that Alexander Skarsgard’s character will be in a very dangerous situation, and both he and Bill will specifically be in danger of learning just how much their life really means:
“A desperate Bill (Stephen Moyer) tries to ferry Warlow (Rob Kazinsky) away from the faerie plain, but Sookie (Anna Paquin) is having none of it. Meanwhile, Eric (Alexander Skarsgård) arrives at vamp camp, looking to inflict serious human damage. In Bon Temps, friends and family take emotional turns remembering a fallen neighbor. Bill feels the pull of Lilith’s (Jessica Clark) sirens.”
This fallen neighbor is almost assuredly Terry, given that he is the one person who seems to be primed for a funeral right now. (Plus, he’s one of the few people that almost everyone out there likes.) Also significant here? That Sookie and Bill are still going to be at odds with the Warlow situation, which lets her know just who she is continuing to choose right now in the romance department … even though this is also the vampire who is apparently trying to get her to agree to a contract to be his forever. Yeah, good luck with that one.
If no one dies Sunday, that is still 3 out of 4 weeks that we will have lost someone related to this show. A pretty high ratio, no?

I don’t know where the show can go from here. It feels like they permanently damaged the world of the show. When the series started, the humans and vampires were living together for the first time out in the open and people were getting used to the idea of supernaturals amongst us. Now with this big war and all the violence, people are not going to get over that and be relaxed ever again. It feels like the world will just be hostile for the rest of the time the show is on.

I am only interested in the vampires at this point. Eric and Pam are my perennial favorites. I don’t really care about Sookie anymore. She is not very smart. Repeatedly doing dumb a** things. I will miss Nora and Terry, but they really need to get rid of more characters. Alcide is muscley, with nothing else going for him. It’s been nice to see the Newlins again.

Warlow needs to be done away with, and the way that dumb ass Sookie is acting they can take her out as well, evidently the lives of the people who have saved her mean nothing to her, to include her brother. Eric and Willa and Pam and Tara are the hi-lite of the show. Eric will be getting revenge for Nora, good.

Warlow is crazy as hell and will be going off in the finale but I hope they kill him ….I am tired of his act….Eric is the best character on the show to me …he is multi-dimensional and a BAMF …he is the reason most people watch the show

I don’t think Sookie is trying to keep Warlow from Bill, I think she is trying to save herself from being a vampire. It does matter much what the writers do, I was hoping we would get to see what a 6,000 year old vampire can do. However, it looks like they will kill him off before he ever gets out of Fairyland. What a waste.

Eric, his sister and his daughter Willa are all boring characters at this point. I’d prefer to see Warlow stay as he’s far more interesting. I have the bad feeling they’ll kil him off. I do love Pam, though
