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. |
I don't think it'd be that bad, especially for HBO who aren't so concerned with each episode being watchable as a standalone. Pretty much all my fears were sated when I read the pilot ends with the line "The things I do for love!"
