It’s been a sad year for the Trubies who have had to say farewell to one their favourite shows as True Blood wrapped up its show in its seventh season. There was a mixture of emotions to the end but one thing everyone can agree on was that it was a heart-breaking finale. Thankfully, just because the series has ended, it doesn’t mean the fandom has finished too as we bring to you some extra goodies to celebrate the release of the final season on DVD and blu-ray!  by Melissa Haggar
After an enjoyable episode last week, it seems True Blood has reverted back into the lands of the dreary and dull, with an episode where nothing actually really happens...at all. Sure, there are some events, but they seem more like one-off’s, with the episode not being nearly as cohesive as last week’s. The episode drags on at an uneven pace, with scattered events that offer no real progression for the story following the death of the HEP-V vampires in the last episode. This was a major event, and one which offered resolution – but now it would seem there are no new events left to unfold (apart from what is going to happen to Eric – will he meet the true death, or will people find a cure?), and the ones that are, are probably going to be left until the last episode.  by Melissa Haggar
We may be almost half way through the final season of True Blood, but the fun doesn’t have to stop there – oh, no! If the thought of being without your favourite residents of Bon Temps to look forward propels you into a downward spiral, then fear no more – because there’s plenty of new (and pretty cool) merchandise to fill that void!  by Melissa Haggar
Almost reaching mid series, the fourth episode of True Blood brought with it a whole new world of change. The character dynamics have slowly been changing from the get-go of Season Seven, but it was more than obvious in this episode that there is a new force to be reckoned with, and her name is Sookie Stackhouse.  by Melissa Haggar
With the second episode in the series shedding a bit of light on the gloomy tunnel that is True Blood, this week’s ‘Fire in the Hole’ seemed to transform the series back into its usual style – complete with flashbacks! At a much more even pace, the episode brought on some genuine emotion that has so far only been apparent in a few number of characters despite their serious life or death situations (although considering how many times they go through this it is any wonder any of them can muster up any energy anymore).  by Melissa Haggar
After a relatively disappointing premiere episode, True Blood returns to form as the second episode ushers in new plot pathways for the series to take, whilst throwing in some well-delivered twists that make the seventh series exciting again. With plenty to get your teeth (or fangs) into, the episode was well stocked with interesting storylines centring on the Hep-V vampires, whilst viewers get a first look at Eric in the series, via a sultry sex dream with Jason.  by Melissa Haggar
Here it is, Truebies! The long-awaited, final season of True Blood has begun, and kicked off in an especially bloody fashion with the Season Seven Premiere episode. After six seasons and a whole lot of crazy, the adventure has now reached the beginning of the end, with audiences keen to find out what had happened to Eric (Alexander Skarsgard) after his nude reading turned into a blazing affair in the final episode of the previous season, not to mention what fate would befall the other inhabitants of Bon Temps, as they can never seem to catch a break.

Q: Did you always know that Ben was also Warlow? ROB KAZINSKY: No, when I auditioned to play Ben it was basically sold as a fairy love interest of Sookie’s. That was all I knew. Then I came in and it said ‘Benlow’ on my costume rail and I’m like ‘Who the eff is Benlow?’ So I asked Audrey who does the costume fittings and she said: “You know…Ben/Warlow.” I called up the producer and said: “Am I Warlow?” He said: “Yes.” I said: “This is probably something you should have told me once I got the job.”  HBO Home Entertainment releases TRUE BLOOD: THE COMPLETE SIXTH SEASON on Blu-ray and DVD on 2 June 2014 kick-starting the farewell year for the show. This thrilling, penultimate season is packed with even more shocking, scary and sexy moments than ever before. The full sixth season and episodes are also available to own and watch instantly on Amazon Instant Video, blinkbox, Google Play and iTunes.
