Bump to that. How about making Kim Stanley Robinson's "Mars Trilogy" into a tv show? That would be hard science instead of transporter tripe.

Great books! But the trilogy would never make it to television - they'd have to dumb it down too much so that the proles could keep up with it. 'nobody' (i.e. the majority) wants good, detailed scientifiction anymore...
