What gets me about most of those supernatural-romance series is how it starts to become too crowded with supernatural beings (like an author is going through a list in her head: were-whatevers? check. fairies? check) and those different races start getting used in short-hand ways to represent different segments of society/cultures, playing up their stereotypes rather than individuating them as persons. To me, that just feels lazy.
Eric, you'll be glad to know, is definitely going to be in True Blood. Alexander Skarsgard (son of Stellan) is playing him, and I think the role is a recurring regular. He's easily my favourite character in the series, as well.
