Bah, two week break till the True Blood finale. Yes, a much bigger departure from the books for the 2nd season, but I think that's the norm for TV based on books. Pretty much for the better, but the denoument of the Dallas adventure was SO MUCH BETTER in the book. Other than that, the TV series rules over the novel.
The better parts of the first season were also those that were not in the book. Loosely Based On is the way to go for this show, bravo!

As for FC's BS' Drac., the reincarnation bit may have been an invention, but I believe it's the single best invention of the entire prolonged, many-hands-in-the-pie, continuing evolution of the Dracula story.
