True Blood/Tear Jerker


Examples of Tear Jerkers in True Blood include:

  • The end of "I Will Rise Up". Godric's calm, joyful acceptance of his impending death and Sookie's tears for him. Also, when Sookie asks Godric if he's very afraid and he replies: "No, no! I'm full of joy!". It's the delivery that makes it so affecting.
  • Eric, who all Season 3 has apparently been willing to throw anyone under a bus in order to get his 1000-year old revenge, finally shows his true colours by handcuffing himself to Russell and staying out in the sunlight to take the bastard out with him, saving Sookie and Bill in the process.
  • Sam kills Maryann, but that was alright, because she believed she had accomplished her life's goal, and, by extension, was the perfect sacrifice. And then Sam changes back. The look on Maryann's face...
  • In the first episode of season three, after Bill feeds from the old lady, he glamours her into thinking her son showed up.
  • In "Me and the Devil" when Tommy accidently kills his mother. His reaction is absolutely heartbreaking.
  • The entire finale of episode of Season 4 just... just watch the part with Jesus and Lafayette.
