True Blood: TV vs Book series? (most likely will contain spoilers)
I don't know if a thread like this has been posted yet but if it hasn't it's long past due. What are your thoughts on the tv show vs the book?
I'll start. I like that the book is so different from the series. I thought I'd be spoiling the show if I read the books but they're so different, the spoilers are kept to a minimum. Like the way we're not sure what's going to happen to Lafayette. I love when they introduce new characters from the book, I like to see who they choose to play that character and if they match the character I pictured in my head.

I prefer the books to the series. Some of the changes they made to character story lines I like (Lafayette being around longer, Tara being a main character) some not so much (while Ryan Kwanten is HOT I don't like his story line in the show more than the books)

I like the books much better. I dont think the show at this point follows the books hardly at all....Its good and bad IMO.

The books are so much better I think but I do like the added characters and twists they added to the show to "spice it up" more. My biggest complaint is that Eric was so much hotter in my imagination.

I also think the books are better. I do not care for most of the story lines that have developed (Jason, Tara). I wish they would show more of the Eric/Bill struggle with Sookie.

I enjoy both and like that I am always surprised with the series but I would really love some sookie and eric lovin and eric's spandex pants!

I'm betting they'll get there!
I like that they are different. It would be way too easy if I knew what to expect. I love how this way you stay interested...like how is Jason's story going to play out in the HBO series?
I can't say I like one better than the other...both stand up well on their own.
And BTW, I'm loving the series this year!!
