True Blood & the Darker Side of Enhancement: "True Blood seems to continuously illustrate all the things that could go wrong with human enhancement. Whether it’s non-humans being taken advantage of by humans, or non-humans being unable to control their powers, it all looks pretty bleak.
We’ve seen Sookie rescue her vampire boyfriend Bill on the brink of death, only to have him turn on her and in his weakened state uncontrollably feed on her. When she awakes from her coma it seems as though their relationship may finally have reached an end, but of course theirs isn’t the most twisted one around. That distinction perhaps falls on the werewolf couple Alcide and Debbie. After forsaking Alcide for another werewolf and an addiction to vampire blood, a confrontation forces Alcide to kill Debbie’s mate to save Bill and Sookie. Debbie sets out on a path of revenge to destroy all that Alcide loves, and despite this a part of Alcide still seems to love her."
