The books are a full of interesting ideas but as written would be terrible for television. You should just think of the TV show as an unrelated science fiction show which happens to share a name and a few plot elements.
- Smaug123 3y agoHonestly I'm not sure it would be terrible for television; I'm just not sure they tried. I think it would be possible to convey the grand arc of history, retain the pre-recorded nature of the Vault, show the different approaches and cultural styles in each era. The dumbest approach would just be to have one mini-series per crisis, and I think even that could work. They don't need to have the same characters throughout the whole thing.
- peterleiser 3y agoYeah, sometimes you can just accept the differences and enjoy both. Like "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?" vs. "Blade Runner".
