To get you ready for tonight's True Blood Season 5 finale, we have multiple photos and video clips. Previous seasons have wrapped up the main story during the last episode, but we were hoping to see the Russell and Authority stories continue into Season 6. That may not be the case based on the preview video we have below, but we'll know how it all goes down in the next few hours.
Episode #5.12: "Save Yourself" - Eric embarks on a final, desperate mission to overthrow the Authority – and save Bill from losing his humanity. Andy faces the consequences of a light pact he made; Alcide readies for a second showdown with J.D.; Sam and Luna test their limits in trying to escape the Authority.
True Blood has already been renewed for a sixth season and will return with 12 new episodes next summer. Series creator and showrunner Alan Ball will be stepping down after this season, although he remains on the show as an executive producer and will consult on the creative direction of the series. True Blood‘s co-executive producer Mark Hudis will take over for Ball in the new season.
