Re:TDD did not live up to expectations

Should you write tests for the tests too? What I find is that in any project of a certain complexity, the tests can end up having the wrong scope or outright bugs in them.

I keep asking the same thing, especially that given any non-trivial self-contained piece of code, the test code will necessarily be isomorphic to the actual implementation - at which point one has to ask, why bother with TDD in the first place and not just write the complex code once?
