    The potential definitely is there for a bloody good finale. The setup is intriguing enough.

    There are still too many characters to keep track of, and their numbers are only growing.... [But] There's a clever twist involving Eric that could set up an exciting arc for Sookie.

    Headaches will be induced just in trying to unravel the plot mess Bon Temps finds itself in. At least this will be the last headache.

    True Blood seems to have exhausted its stores of surprises.

    HBO's True Blood opens its seventh and final season on a rather anemic note.

    For the most part, cable series haven’t been as guilty as their network brethren of overstaying an invitation, but this is one hit show that probably should have breathed its last a couple of years ago.

    I was skeptical when the new show runner Brian Buckner said that this final season would return back to how it was when it first started butI was skeptical when the new show runner Brian Buckner said that this final season would return back to how it was when it first started but after seeing the premiere all of the skepticism was gone. This feels exactly like season 1 and 2. There are some things that they can't go back to but for the most part it's almost exactly like the earlier seasons. I'm so excited to see how the rest of this season plays out. Full Review »

I actually just decided to give True Blood a try after hearing all the raves from my friends. All I can say is thank goodness for fast forward. I think I started skipping ahead in season 5 & 6 and even last night. I watch them on HBO Go as I don't think I could stand to sit and watch it straight through. So ahead to the review: Why are bothering to focus so much on Tara's mom? Who cares!! HEP V vampires don't live but a couple of days. We saw this with Nora, so how are they even strong enough to empty towns. Ah, they can't go out in the day light and they can't go into homes uninvited. To say this is far-fetched in a series like this says something about the writing. Very poor beginning really. I give it a D+ Full Review »
