Carrie Preston with husband, Michael Emerson of LOST
SciFiNow reports that Michael Emerson, Carrie Preston’s husband might make an appearance on True Blood. Could this be true? Here’s what they have to say:
We’ve heard that the producers of True Blood are so taken with Michael “Ben” Emerson’s work on Lost that they “really want him” in the show, and that they will write him in for a part of unspecified length. Our source? Emerson’s wife, Carrie Preston, who was fairly definite on the point at the Hawaiian International Film Festival.
That’s fantastic! I think he would make a perfect Bobby Burnham, Eric’s day man who hates Sookie. I think he as the perfect face for that!

Ohh I like that idea. Plus he would have to deal with being told what to do by someone else (eric like jacob).

I absolutely love the idea of Michael Emerson to be on True Blood. He would be fantastic. What great news!

Terrific idea. I hope it comes to fruition.

I vote yea. I am sure they could create a role for him. I also would like to see Josh Holloway as a vampire on TB. I am not sure my ticker could take both Stephen and Josh on one show. Now that is the vampich I’d like to be in the middle of. AB let’s put my ticker to the test shall we?

Oh you know it would fantasic if Micheal played a role where he came in Merlottes and harassed Arlene. Or he could be a FOTS nut that trys to recruit her.

I would love to see Michael show up on TB. Make it happen!

Ooh…Bobby Burnham would be a good fit for him. But I would really like to see him as a vampire. Maybe Clancy?

Michael would be a great and welcomed addition to the cast of TB.
He could play just about anything. I like willkill’s idea of his character harassing Arlene!

Yeah if he were harassing Arlene , Terry would step in and and say “nobody is going treat my special lady like that.” Then he’d boot him out the door. LOL It makes me laugh to think about it.

I agree with Niki Lynn…. that Michael Emmerson is absolutely perfect for the role of Bobby Burnham, Eric’s day man who hates Sookie. When I was reading the book, I pictured a face just like his!

I think he’d make a great Mr. Cataliades.

BENry pwns all! I think he should headline a Lost spin-off…or be part of the Fringe Division. The man needs his own show damn it! Give it to him!
[Reply]
I think it would be a great idea!!!!
He is creepy and whats a bit more creepiness for the show.
Bring it on!

I was hoping and had mentioned it on a Lost site, he’d be a wicked great King of Arkansas!
