But parties arent made to last.
Season 7
What a way to go.
The final season ofTrue Bloodfeels like the storytelling equivalent of frantically packing your bags during a house fire.
you’re free to practically feel the creative team lining up job interviews right there onscreen.

This season has the ingredients to be much greater than it is.
