The irony there is that you say that, but at the same time Jeff is writing the show that all the world's angst is felt by exactly one character (Derek), while everybody else seems to forget what happened to them even just a few weeks prior in-show! So it's not like we have a continuity-driven angst pileup going on. Another couple of episodes and Scott may not even remember who Allison even was!

But it's not just that. Jeff's fantasy kitchen sink is overflowing. There's just too much stuff going on and he's constantly adding more and then not developing it. It is exactly the way that True Blood turned from a great show into an epic cluster****! New characters constantly getting introduced, new threats, no time to really explore any of them in-depth, so the number of dangling plot threads keeps on growing.

Case-in-point: the S3a finale. Peter should have been the villain in S3b. But he wasn't. Instead he apparently spends his time shopping for lower and lower cut v-necks (not that we're complaining mind you) but not really doing much else.
