I think they could have easily either had Godric stay in Dallas as sheriff, had him go off and do some sort of media thing as pacifist!vampire!guy, or even had him run off and not tell anyone where he was going, just go somewhere where no one would recognize him and try to be a better vampire.
Expanding the Godric storyline would have probably been a lot less annoying to people than this overdone Marianne storyline. I know tons of people who watch True Blood and I think maybe only one of them isn't bored and/or annoyed with that one. And Sookie hasn't been a major part of the Marianne storyline, Tara has, so I think they could have worked in Eric having the main part in the Godric storyline, especially if they, say, explored the blood bond with Sookie more and Sookie was still seeing Godric as some big woobie.
It would have been really interesting to see Eric trying to deal--we'd probably get to see him in the position of a child who thinks their parents are incredibly misinformed, but is trying to be polite about it haha It would also probably cause him to have momentary doubts, would would be cool little crises of character to see him go through.
Haha, hey, Spike came back, why not Godric?! I want that, I want flashbacks, I want hallucinations, I want an evil character taking Godric's form to mess with Eric, I want a human that looks just like Godric popping up, I don't care how cliche or stupid it gets, I just really want more Allan Hyde, too.
