A story of one girl’s obsession with books, movies and TV shows

The tale of two unfortunate book adaptations. Plus one less so. 3 March

Now and then some TV boss decides to try to make another fantasy show. The majority of such creations are either completely unremarkable in every aspect or go all the way into Cheesyland. Due to that or despite it the aforementioned TV boss greenlights the adaptation of a popular book series. Well, we all know what a rarity good adaptations are. I for one can only recall the LotR and Harry Potter franchise. Narnia wasn’t all that, and Golden Compass — plain awful.

There are three recent TV shows that appeared on my radar as I’ve read the book series they were adapted from.
