More likely then not it won't matter because most of the people watching the series are not going to read the books.
Actually for me, who read up to the first 3rd of DwD and then gave up.
If I were to watch the entire completed TV series, I might be tempted to pick the books up again, mainly as I'd be able to then read the books skim-reading all the boring parts, focusing on the good parts of the story.
