Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThis is the first time the novels by Philip Pullman are adapted into a television series. The previous film adaptation, The Golden Compass (2007), was once cited by the author George R.R. Martin as one of the reasons he wanted Game of Thrones (2011) to be a television series rather than a feature film. Martin later shared his thoughts on the series on Twitter, calling it "SO much better than the feature film." There are only three novels in Pullman's series, however, and several in Martin's, so it's not surprising the original plan was to adopt His Dark Materials into a film trilogy.
- Crazy creditsThe opening titles are a zoom out, starting from particles of Dust at atomic level and zooming out to show the various multiversal locations within the story (and the objects/people/vehicles within these multiverses) before concluding the zoom out to reveal the series title.

Guessing No One Reads Anymore
Even though I never read the books, I KNOW this is based off of them. Other reviews suggesting that this is a waste of money and comparing it to The Golden Compass, even they are one and the same except the series is far superior because it can actually delve into the source material. People need to do a little research and quit being lazy before spouting off about something they know nothing about obviously.
I've seen other series get the same treatment because people don't read or do research. So annoying. Anyway the show is great. Yes, the movie only got the tip of the iceberg. The show actually goes deeper into the relationships of characters and their backgrounds. The acting is good. The actors are fantastic. And it is British because it's supposed to be.
Give it three episodes before you throw it away due to crappy reviews giving this show the shaft.
