    Suspense, surprises 
and crackling dialogue: True Blood is pumping strong again.

    After a couple of seasons where the show and its mythology have grown increasingly crazy and outlandish, True Blood returns on somewhat surer footing, with a couple of key cast additions and driving storylines to bolster the serialized drama.

    While True Blood remains wildly and bloodily inventive--and will certainly remain a huge HBO hit--there's still an overwhelming sense that deja-vu-all-over-again has set in.

    True Blood USED to be amazing, everything started going downhill really fast with season 5 I'm guessing with Alan Ball leaving.
