It’s a long-held, coveted fan opinion: the only way to have a faithful book-to-screen adaptation is through a television show. The television medium allows for a longer, more drawn-out re-imagining of the source material. In this, some of the more “die-hard” book fans call for an equal, 1:1 exchange where each book is a season, and each chapter is an episode of a season. There would be (in theory) enough airtime for every piece of dialogue, every wardrobe change, and all the details that would otherwise be considered fan service in a larger cinematic adaptation.
