AceShowbiz - After numerous shirtless scenes on "True Blood", Alexander Skarsgard left nothing to the imagination in the show's season six finale. The Swedish hunk went full frontal nude in the August 18 episode, leaving fans with one memorable scene which could be his last one on the show.
After fleeing from Bon Temps in the penultimate episode, [SPOILER ALERT!] Skarsgard's Eric was apparently finding solace in Sweden following his vampire sister Nora's death. Wearing nothing but his birth suit, he was reading a book while sun-bathing on a snowy landscape.
At the same time in Bon Temps, Warlow revealed his true self, trying to make Sookie his bride for her body and blood. Bill, realizing that Sookie was in danger, enlisted Jason, Violet, Andy and Adilyn to rescue her, but it was Jason who ended Warlow's life.
With Warlow's demise, all vampires who drank his blood lost their ability to walk in the sun. It was nighttime in Bon Temps so Bill, Jessica, Tara and most other vampires survived but unfortunately for Eric, it was daylight in Sweden.
Eric leapt off his chair when the change suddenly happened, exposing his manhood to the camera as he got burnt. The episode, however, ended without confirming whether Eric met his true death or not.
Showrunner Brian Buckner had previously teased about Eric's "sexy and provocative" scene in the finale. "There's definitely something for the ladies and the gay men. We might see a certain body part," he told Entertainment Weekly.
