First, we aren't going to know who all died until next season. That's going to be the big cliff hanger.
I saw some photos for this week's episode and they have Eric, Nora and Tara working together. I really like the dynamics of Pam & Tara this season. In the end Pam is going to realize she's got a good progeny with Tara, someone that she will enjoy life with in a way she did when she was the Progeny and Eric was her maker. And Tara has really changed alot as a character. For the first time in her really pathetic life (cause let's face it - Tara has had life pretty bad) she's going to realize she is with a strong family unit with Pam and Eric. Pam will give her the unconditional love that her mother Lettie Mae has never given her and Eric will be the father figure she never had. I think in the following seasons we'll see Tara really blossom and she will forgive Sookie and Lafayette because she will realize that she finally was given the happiness she could never find as a human.
Of Salome and Nora one of them will die. I was hoping that it would be Nora because with Nora around they could push the Nora/Eric couple and I really don't like them as a couple. Eric was always better when he was just fucking random humans he met at Fangtasia or trying to convince Sookie that she is his. But from what I see with the previews, Salome is the one that drinks the rest of Lilith's blood and that means she's the one who would least like be able to find her humanity. I'm kinda hoping that Bill sees Salome as a woman who has spent her lifetime trying to grab power where she can get it and in the end Bill kills Salome, which will help him finally realize that the whole Lilith thing was a bad acid trip and he regains his humanity. What I could see for season 6 is that Nora and Bill work together to rebuild the Authority and push mainstreaming agenda again. Nora is the new guardian and Bill becomes the new Nan Flannigan.
I'd love to see Russell and Steve both survive this season. They are the best couple in True Blood and Denis O'Hare is an amazing talented actor. He just makes Russell shine to the point that even though he is playing a psychopath deranged 3000 year old vampire - sometimes you kinda cheer him on because you want to see what this guy will do next week. What I'd love to see is Russell, Steve and Emma (the werepuppy) make an escape. That would give a great storyline for next season that would unite several groups of sups together to work as one finding these 3. You'd have the vampires obviously - they want Russell dead because he's just plain nuts. You'd have Sam & Luna helping out since Emma is Luna's daughter. You'd have a reason to keep Martha Bozeman around, she's another great highlight of this season as Emma's grandmother and mother to the late packmaster of the Shreveport pack. You could see Alcide helping since he has a bit of a bond with Sam, Luna and Emma (he helped to rescue Emma who was kidnapped by her dad Marcus Bozeman who was screwing Alcide's ex Debbie Pelt). This could be a great storyline and help revamp the werewolves in general, who seem to be nothing more than a bunch of hardliving crazies who get addicted to V alot.
I think Warlow is being built up to be a storyline next season. That's how they brought Maryann in for being the season #2 baddie and I think that worked really well. We all had preconceived ideas about Maryann being this really great lady who was going to help give Tara a second chance and it turns out she was a Maenad looking to kill Sam and turn Bon Temp into a giant loonie bin. I could see Warlow making an appearance on Sunday but he will factor in next year. If the writers kill him off at the end of this season then why have a storyline - no one knows who he is so we aren't going to care if he dies.
