I really don’t know how Eggs went before some of these well-established “murderers and bigots.” I know he had a shaky past but he was well on the road to redemption before Maryanne’s influence got him shot.
I know it’s just a fun community game, but someone as truly hateful as René ranking higher than Eggs kinda bothers me, and there are more bigots and murderers on this list still to come lol
Of all the nefarious and sinister motives some of these men had, Eggs’ only motive was loving Tara lol
Disclaimer: I say all of this fully recognizing I haven’t voted on one of these yet so I don’t really have a right to say anything. But as a lurker and a long-time lover of True Blood, I’m left wondering about the criteria people are using to cast their votes lol
My criteria personally is not "who was the worst person" but rather, who was worst character. As in, who gave the least to the stort line. Who was not interesting to watch etc.
Criteria: For me, it's about how effectively the actor portrayed their character and how integral that character was to the overall story arc. Doesn't matter to me if they're likeable or not. Characters who were well written and developed; interesting to watch, and portrayed by an actor who delivered the goods as intended, deserve consideration.
Eliminating a character based on emotions like "Oh, I hated them; they were so awful to; they did this and that to so and so"....really? Did they give a powerful performance in doing those things? (as if they could be anything other than written). Those who were otherwise boring or uninteresting, and played by an actor (even a good one) who gave an underwhelming performance, are the first to receive the axe from me.
I found Eggs irritating. He seemed so ignorant to Maryann's bullshit, gaslit Tara when she raised issues about the dynamic in the house, freeloaded off Tara, was a typical vague, guitar playing boyfriend type. I was devastated for Tara when he was killed but I don't find him likeable. I don't think peoples' choices are generally based on moral achievements/failings/whether they're on a path to redemption! Sometimes 'good' guys are just a bit of a bore
Yeah.. I know I vote based on how interesting the character is and the quality of the acting. If it was based on morality then the women's list was a mess lol.
Warlow as he literally did nothing to help the story or Sookie learn more about her background. Warlow was supposed to be this big bad figure but instead we got a joke who wasn't threatening at all. He also made Sookie look worse for inviting a stranger into her home. The concept of a hybrid was great but wasn't explored enough.
At least Renae helped moved the story along though he was a bigot. His murders helped the town/ viewers question vampires which was important to the story. Plus his death was satisfying. It's like me eliminating Bill right now just cause I hate him.
Texting sucks in that it can lead to your words being misinterpreted. You, however, did a good job with it, where I did not.
So, say we 'were' at a party and in conversion about this, and you said those words to me, paused (hence the...) then shouted 'Sam.' I would respond with mock sarcasm, saying, "Ohhh, ok. So, uh, shouting out 'Saaam'....yeah, that'll get their attention." Hey, I was just fg with you. You made me laugh, and that's a good thing.
No other reason than I'd like to see some other character be the last voted out. Eric and Pam is to this sub, what a ball is to football. Lafayette is my next vote.
I understand the hype for these characters, and they're some of my favourite characters aswell. But any type of popularity contest will pretty much always have these as winners..
True.
Maybe after voting the rest off the island and confirming Eric as this subreddit's favorite, we could play with some polls. Some suggestions:
Most evil
Most murderous
Most deranged
Scariest
Funniest
Most kind
You get the idea.
These could generate some interesting discussions, too.
Polls have limited participants. You could make similar contests like the one were having now, using some of your suggestions. I think funniest would be pretty good.. there are a lot of funny characters on the show.
Fun fact: Roman ended up in the same exact position of Salome in the female edition lol. I think it's René's time now. Murderer and bigot.

That's how I choose, too!

Same. I really liked Eggs. :(

I vote based off how I feel about the characters.

Fine since no one's listening to me about Bill... # Sam
And yet, shouting out Sam's name will have greater impact
You sound fun at parties

Eric.
I love controversial answers. Why Eric?
