#WritersCoffeeClub 24-12-13. Which novel to TV or movie adaptation was the most disappointing and why?
Much like tieflingdio@mstdn.games cited, The Dresden Files fell really flat in its adaptation to a live action tv series.
The books get into gritty territory, including politics between Fae courts, and it lost soooo much when translated to 30-45min live action episodes. It doesn't help that it didn't survive long enough for the actors to hit stride & developed screen chemistry.
Each book really should've been covered in a season
