I think I'm more into the Dome this season than last; frankly I don't remember the book that well, so it's kind of new to me, which may be why I don't notice or care if they're departing radically from the book. But King is the Exec Producer, so it can't be going *too* far afield.
We kinda fell out of True Blood because of the season they took off; I figured they were done, and when our discounted rate on HBO expired, I just cancelled it. I figure we'll catch up on Netflix at some point, watch the whole thing start to finish.
We got Showtime earlier this year when they offered us a great deal on it, so we got to see the start of Penny Dreadful, which was such a wacky mix of so many genres and characters and storylines and pure gothic, I flat out loved it -- and I called it, on the wolfman, from about halfway
thru -- they had everything BUT that, so I figured he must be that -- I also called it on his consumptive ladylove becoming the Bride of Frankenstein.

I have to wonder if they realize that the Frankenstein tale was looooooooong before Victorian times. There was a truly amusing moment where the guy playing Dr Frankenstein quotes a poem by Shelley.
