Well folks...waiting SUCKS...and we will wait no longer. Season 6 of True Blood returns next Sunday, June 16th at 9 PM. We have been waiting patiently for months now. This past season took us on an intricate tour of The Vampire Authority as well as the Fairy World. We saw Russell Edgington return, only to finally be destroyed by Eric Northman. We saw Tara become familiar with her new life as a baby vampire and in a surprising twist develop chemistry with her maker, Pam. Alcide bonded with his dead-beat father, battled a V-addicted JD and helps the very vampires he despises. Jessica battles with her attraction to Jason, who is still in a trance since the night with Russell Edgington in the field who vows to destroy the Vampire Authority and proclaims to Jessica he will never be with a vamp. Sookie learns more about her Fairy background and the special powers she possesses. And then there is Bill, who appears to have been transformed on his holy quest to be the Vampire Prophet. In celebration and anticipation of the season opener, here is my top 10 recapped moments of an awesome season 5:
10. Tara rises a new born vampire; born to Pam in return for Sookie agreeing to "fix" her relationship with Eric.
9. Bill, Eric and his newly discovered sister Nora Gainsborough are taken into the authority (Nora already working for them). Bill and Eric make a deal with Roman Zimojic (Authority Leader): their lives in exchange for the return of Russell Edgington.
8. Russell, taken into the Authority's custody kills Roman Zimojic. Salome admits to digging up and helping nurture Russell Edgington back to life.
7. Sookie learns the story behind her parent’s death and we delve into her fairy background.
6. The True Blood Factories are bombed by the Authority, forcing the main streaming vampires to feed on humans. The Authority's Goal: The Rise and Return of the Vampire.
5. Eric and Nora go rouge and join forces with Sookie, Jason, Pam and Tara against bills deranged Authority.
4. Maurella (FAIRY) gives birth to Andy Bellefleur's 4 babies and leaves them to him to raise.
3. Luna Garza collapses after shifting into Steve Newlin's body in an attempt to save her daughter (Steve Newlin’s new “pet” a gift from Russell) from the Authority.
2. Bill tricks Salome into drinking a "silver tainted fake" of Lilith's blood and drives a stake through her heart. It seems no one can stop Bill's plan to rise as Lilith's Successor.
1. Bill drinks Lilith's blood despite Sookie and Eric's pleas and immediately disintegrates into a pool of bloody vampire goo. Moments later in the final scene of the season Bill rises again a Bloody Reincarnation of Bill Compton.
What will happen next? I personally can't wait. JUNE 16th people; JUNE 16th.
