The only "TV" book I've ever read is Battlestar Gallactica by our own Mr. Carver. I thought it was going to be "based on" the show, but instead it was a faithful "shot for shot" rendition of the pilot. He did an amazing job of capturing the characters. I read it and kept marveling at the effort that must have required, to be that meticulous. How many times to you WATCH that episode, Jeffrey? Wow.
I finished it with a strange mixture of, to be honest, "well that was a waste of time, I've seen the show" and complete admiration for the author, and if the entire series was so novelized, I'd likely buy every one of them.
