That’s not really the point though.
While Slow Horses, Reached or Silo had their print audiences, they are not adapted solely because they are reaching enormous audiences as books. They have become successful shows because someone made the case for adaptation to the studios.
Star Trek has been struggling to make serialized live action shows successfully. Why not go with what works and adapt that?
