You could say that whole book is already almost custom made for episodic content with all the cliff hangers beetween chapters and jumps to other characters.

I'd have thought that what works in the books (characters abandoned in a limbo for hundreds of pages at a time) would be hard to translate in weekly episodes without losing the spectator along the way.

But maybe I have a skewed impression of the books' pacing because I read the lot of them front to back in an intensive fourteen days or so, thus I can't really imagine the same content of a single book paced over many weeks. I'll refresh my memory as soon as the next installment finally arrives.
