A Letter to the Master


Dear Mr. Alan Ball,

Hello good sir.  

First off, I must begin by saying how much I admire and respect your work.  You wrote one of my favorite movies of all time, 'American Beauty', and created quite possibly the 2 greatest TV shows HBO has ever produced, 'Six Feet Under' and the oh so sexy 'True Blood'.  And while I could heap praise on you for an eternity, this letter is in regards to one show in particular.

As an avid fan of 'True Blood', and of Mr. Alexander Skarsgard, I would like to personally thank you and the show's wardrobe department for outfitting him in nothing but a black, tight-fitting, racerback tank top in Sunday's episode, showcasing his fabulous arms, and his impossibly broad shoulders.  A fruit basket is on its way to your office now with a kind note attached.

But, while I appreciate that wardrobe choice (as do millions of others), I have one problem.  

On an almost weekly basis we are shown images of a naked Sam and Bill and a shirtless Jason, I have (as well as many others)  noticed the very apparent lack of shirtless and/or nude Alexander Skarsgard.  What are you thinking?  I feel this is an unfair, and somewhat cruel punishment.

Have you not seen the shower scene from Generation Kill?  I mean.  HELLO!?

I truely hope you choose to rectify this situation, and that it is just an oversight in your part.  .  ASkars (yes, I just abbreviated, sue me) himself has said in an interview he enjoys being naked.  So how about you make him (and us, the viewer) happy?  A naked Eric is sure to be a ratings juggernaut!

Also, the show needs more Pam and her witty one-liners.  A few minutes every other episode is nowhere near enough of that fierce bitch.  

Thank you kindly for your time.  

Sincerely,
Cailin

P.S. - Thank you for giving us Godric.  He makes me smile ever so much.
