The Eric burned alive thing happened before the six month time jump, so he could be recovered by the new season.

So what was the point of the cliffhanger ending for him again anyway?

Maybe it's so he and Pam can have a story line together and patch their relationship up, OR SOMETHING. I just hope he's naked.

WELL JESSICA HAS TO BE NAKED TOO THEN BECAUSE TUMBLR SAYS WE NEED NUDITY EQUALITY.

Christopher Plummer's nudity was cut from the final film.

He'll have trouble trying to hide in the abbey, what with all the crosses and stuff.

News came out today that Willa will be a regular next year. Whoopie.

Also, the new showrunner talked around a question about whether next year will be the last. He said the writers will figure it out when they get in the room together.

I like Willa, although she'll probably be written poorly and end up dating a mermaid or something.

I bet "the writers will figure it out" means "wait and see if HBO wants any more."

Willa reminds me of Sybile from Spartacus. Maybe she just looks like her....

She looks like someone who would be on the WHOH if I watched Spartacus...

I WAS RIGHT!

Maybe it'll have a proper storyline then!

One less cutie-pie hunk -- hopefully the replacement will be just as succulent:

Luke Grimes Exits HBO’s ‘True Blood’; Role Will Be Recast

By NELLIE ANDREEVA | Monday December 30, 2013 @ 2:49pm PST

james-true-bloodBrooding vampire James will be back on True Blood next season, but the actor who plays him, Luke Grimes, won’t. The role will be recast.

Ever since production on Fifty Shades Of Grey was pushed by a month to December 2, there had been concern whether Grimes — who was cast as Christian Grey’s brother Eliott in the movie — would be able to do True Blood, which starts production on its seventh and final season in January.

True Blood showrunner Brian Buckner had big plans for James, which was introduced in Season 6 as a vampire whom Jessica (Deborah Ann Woll) met while she was locked up at Governor Burrell’s camp. Grimes was promoted to regular heading into Season 7, and Buckner in August told EW that Season 6 had only “scratched the surface” of what Grimes can do as an actor.

According to TV Line, which broke the news of Grimes’ exit, the actor asked to be let out of his contract after reading Season 7 scripts and being disappointed by the direction James was taking away from Jessica.

“Luke Grimes will not be returning as James in True Blood,” HBO said. “The role of James is being recast due to the creative direction of the character.”

The actors are disappointed with the scripts already? Uh-oh.

Well, that doesn't sound good, but since there's only one more season I'm still going to watch it. It probably won't be any worse than previous seasons!

I barely remember him anyway. Just some himbo in distress for Jessica, wasn't he?
