Not sure what could be causing this issue. Have you tried putting single quotes around 'True Blood' and the URL (I wouldn't think this matters, but it's worth a try)?

EDIT:

After a few quick Google searches I found two examples of someone appending  to the src. For example, @font-face { font-family: 'MyFontFamily'; src: url('myfont-webfont.eot') format('embedded-opentype'), url('myfont-webfont.woff') format('woff'), url('myfont-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'), url('myfont-webfont.svg#svgFontName') format('svg'); } and @font-face { font-family: 'runescape'; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; src:	url('http://images.wikia.com/runescape/images/a/ab/Runescape_chat.eot?') format('embedded-opentype'), local("RuneScape Chat"), url('http://images.wikia.com/runescape/images/8/87/Runescape_chat.woff') format('woff'); }

I found these examples at https://github.com/CSSLint/csslint/wiki/Bulletproof-font-face and w:c:runescape:MediaWiki:Common.css/Webfonts.css. I also noticed that on the latter it mentions,

If you're seeing this page looking for ways to install this on your wiki, you'll first need to have webfonts enabled on your wiki, by contacting Wikia staff about it via the Special:Contact page on your wiki. The .woff, .tff and .eot file formats need to be enabled for full access to all webfont file types. Perhaps this is the issue? Probably not, because external hosting should work. Check out my test wiki. I've managed to get it's font to be Roboto just by using a Google font using code copied from another Wikia (also a test wiki, belonging to staff member CzechOut). /* +++++++++++++++++++  Main text font +++++++++++++++++++ */ @font-face { font-family: "Roboto"; src:url(http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20140717165236/czechitout/images/1/1e/Roboto-Regular.ttf) format('truetype'); src: local(‚ò∫),; /* because no one will have this on their local machines, it forces browsers to accept only Roboto */ /* The next two declarations may no longer be necessary, but at one point they were required to make it possible to apply styling to               imported fonts in webkit browsers. Can't hurt to still include them, even in 2014. */   font-weight: normal; font-style: normal; }
