Marshall Allman: Saying Goodbye to Tommy

Tommy Mickens’ death was not really a surprise, but for me it was pretty sad. I held out hope for that kid that maybe Sam could turn his life around for good and all. Or maybe Alcide would have had a hand in directing the boy to better choices. If you’ve been following our podcasts this season, you’ll know that while many didn’t favor Tommy (fans reflecting characters, perhaps?), I just couldn’t turn my back on him.

In a recent interview, Marshall Allman talks about Tommy and what might have been. “Tommy’s inception was always to serve Sam’s storyline. So at the end of the day, while I was like, Oh man, we’re just kind of moving on — my main thought was, I hope the fans don’t just forget about me.”

Well, this fan won’t forget about Tommy. You can read the entire interview HERE.
