What it's done is go off the rails! I don't know about Sookie, but the producers are definitely off with the fairies!

Let's get this straight: though the fairies in the novels aren't entirely good guys, Claudine is supposed to be a good fairy. We'll leave aside the fact that she's also supposed to be 6' plus (I was rather looking forward to seeing who they'd cast in that role). No, this is out of order, I'm afraid - diverging so wildly from the books just isn't acceptable. I'll carry on watching it - if I can stand to - on the basis of Anna Paquin alone, who's kept upping her game with each season, but...I don't know. I just don't know.

Mind you, casting Fiona Shaw as a witch was an ironic touch...given her role as Petunia Dursley in the Harry Potter films.
