Will Eric and Sookie hook up in True Blood Season 3?

Question

Obviously it's a little early to make any final guesses on this subject...but I'm absolutely dying for it.. after the dream sequences, and then having practically 2 episodes with little or no eric/sookie time...has left me very disappointed and totally over the stupid Maryann the Maenad thing. Does anyone think Alan Bell might explore this in Season 3 or would you say the storyline has been following the books?
Love to hear your thoughts!! :)

I've read all the books and have seen every episode of True Blood, and though I think AB is obviously not following the books exactly, I do believe however that he will follow the main ideas and themes. That being said, throughout the novels Eric is everything to Sookie whether she admits it or not. So I believe that next season will be focus on Bill and Sookie breaking up and lots of revelations. I also think that we will start to see Eric's character evolve like most bad boys do when they meet the one women who "makes them melt" so to speak. I am totally team Eric he is sooo hott, but I hope we don't see a real sex scene because I think eric's character will need one more season to evolve into someone Sookie would be interested in. Bottom line Eric is a bad guy that Sookie is meant to be with and make a better man.
No worries season 3 will definitely hold more Eric and so will every season to come its just how it was written and that's one thing that even AB won't change ... both because of viewers, and because that is a very major part of the Sookie Stackhouse Series.

Answer 2

I think they are heading that way. I don't want them too as i want Sookie to stay with Bill. I can't stand Eric!!!! Lisa Michelle x x lol x x

Answer 3

in the books they don't actually hook up until book 4 but since the series is loosely based on the books maybe alan ball will be kind and give us some sookie/eric lovin' in season 3. worse case scenario they will tease us with the idea like they have in those few episodes.

Answer 4

I find more satisfaction seeing the books and the show as two different things. It looks like that Eric and Sookie will just have to hook up at some point, to provide tension and more heart drama. To have Sookie and Bill live happily ever after would be ridiculous, plot wise. We will probably see a lot of sexual tension between them in season 3, maybe or maybe not on "real" sex. I have actually found the Maryann storyline interesting, and maybe that's because it was not in the books, so it's new to me. Greek mythology has always fascinated me, so I'm actually looking forward to the Clash of the Supes.
