But look at how badly the Vampire Diaries turned out because it was a TV series? They haven't stuck to the books at all!It's a risky idea...sometimes I wish things were simply left as books and left to the imagination.
I gather you're a TVD book fan because others have said Plec made "a mediocre book into an amazing and successful show" and that she improved it. I haven't read the books but maybe she felt some things needed to be changed to be more "TV worthy". I'm not saying at all that I wouldn't mind if she changed things in the book, I'd hate it too.
Yes it's a bit of a risk but we only have one flop of a movie to our name so what's the harm
VA is an amazing series with intense plotlines and amazing characters and a rich history, which I heard the TVD books didn't do so well with (no offense of course)
so the producers wouldn't need to change much because Richelle's writing is really solid. :)
The TVD books were might fine when LJSmith wrote them, they had someone take over the last three and that's when things broke down considerably. But I understand the concept of making things more tv appealing, it's just sad - plus I had read the books before the tv series came about so I had an idea of the plot already, if I'd come to the television series with a book-free mind it would have been different. I fear with VA as a television series the writers would find it hard to demonise strigoi and we would end up with something like The Originals for them, when In reality the idea is to not hesitate because they are not that person (forgetting about spirit for a moment) also the tv series wouldn't stop with Lissa becoming queen I fear they would have Christian's parents back from the dead, and the undead, and all sorts of unfathomable idiocy like that. And then continue with a story there rather than acknowledging Sydney's story has only just begun. Of course I may be wrong, this is just what I fear.

But together, they don't complement, not really. But separate, I love them both!!! <3 <3 <3
I was just looking online about Vampire Academy and stubled upon this Change.org petition to make Vampire Academy a TV Show!
