Tonight: If I'm counting days right, Pam is due to die. Obviously that's not going to happen, which means that probably the Magister is not long for this mortal coil, which is sad in a different way. Russell's game is going to completely change now that he has Sookie, so one presumes that Eric will start working this shit in a whole new way to balance it out. God knows how Bill is going to deal with life, but that's true every week. Jason goes after poor Kitch again and continues to make out with Crystal, Eric is mean to Sookie Stackhouse, Jesus and Lafayette hopefully make out at least, Hotshot comes after him once again, and Tara is more than likely not going to become anybody's VAMPIRE BRIDE... Although Sophie-Anne just might.

Check out this interview with Joe Manganiello, a.k.a. Alcide on True Blood.
