Having seen every episode since the beginning of the series, I could not be more disappointed and dissatisfied with the start of this final season. The 6/22 episode wasn't even a hot mess; it was just a mess. Angela Robinson's writing and Stephen Moyer's directing of the premiere were so uneven and poorly executed, I'm tempted to give up on the show early. Furthermore, the absence of Alexander Skarsgard's Eric, the mere 30-second cameo of Rutina Wesley's Tara, and the recasting of Jessica's new vamp boyfriend took my level of frustration to greater heights. HBO, you owe your loyal viewers a better send-off than this. Let's hope you'll redeem yourselves, and faster than a vamp can travel across continents.
