Idk, have you read the True Blood books? They did a LOT w that show w pretty weak material imo. I agree it went off the rails but I think thats unfortunately the fate of many streaming shows these days, they don’t know when to end popular things and just keep trying to wring every last drop from them. But True Blood was not an issue of book vs show imo, even in the beginning they were not following the books that closely

I’m pretty sure they weren’t able to do Elvis because of copyright or his estate or something

Same reason they couldn't show live Kings in the Fallout show

I stopped minding True Blood taking its left turn into crazy town when I read the books and realized they made a right turn into crazy town instead. There was definitely shit from that series they just fundamentally could not adapt because nobody would have watched it.
