ah jack i forgot about True Blood even though I am not happy with this season very much. So far away from the books which isn't bad but it is just getting waaaaay out there.

Yeah, while I have not read the books at all, I have heard they are very, very different, and the show is only inspired by it (I heard werewolves were mentioned in the first book, Sookie gets in a love triangle with Bill and Eric right from the beginning, etc.). True Blood is in the shaky 4th season area, where more of the same would likely kill it, so it is trying to walk that line of way out there but still familiar, and way out there and strange/unfamiliar. It is definitely crazy, but I am still looking forward to every episode lol.

Yeah still good to watch. The witches that messed with Eric were actually very powerful. Sookie is a whore in the book. Kinda is here. The fairie folk are not goblins in the book and a bunch of other different things. But I agree, got to throw some new stuff out there.

There is also the issue with people being too impatient to wait for the next week's episode and reading what happens in the book if they follow too closely, who would then go online and ruin it for everyone. The Walking Dead also really changed things up, with characters who died in the first 5 comics or so sticking around, drastically changing the story from there. It is pretty much par for the course these days.
