Comments on: HBO & Neil Gaiman? http://sf-fantasy.suvudu.com/2011/04/hbo-neil-gaiman.html Suvudu - Science Fiction and Fantasy Books, Movies, and Games Thu, 24 May 2012 02:51:52 -0400 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.5.2 hourly 1 By: Courtney Thomas Vance http://sf-fantasy.suvudu.com/2011/04/hbo-neil-gaiman.html/comment-page-1#comment-28312 Courtney Thomas Vance Fri, 15 Apr 2011 09:49:09 +0000 http://suvudu.com/?p=15771#comment-28312 I'm not a huge Gaiman fan (not sure why - just not into his prose/writing style), but I would love to see a television adaptation of his work. HBO has written some of the best shows of the last decade or so, and I think they could bring a lot of brilliance to Gaiman's stories (which I hear are great. I wouldn't know. I can rarely get past the first twenty pages of his novels). But I trust HBO to do something wonderful things with it. I think True Blood is much better than its book source material (The Southern Vampire Mysteries), for example. Yet another show to look forward to on HBO! First True Blood, then Game of Thrones, now this! HBO is surely trying to take over my life.
