The Premise: A look at the day-to-day lives of the Neopolis Police Department’s 10th Precinct. Here are five examples of the sort of television shows which could emerge from the sacrilegious act of adapting Moore’s comic books. Which is the long way of saying Moore is the greatest fanfic writer to ever live and it is time to consider how others can produce amazing fanfic from his contributions to the discourse. Nonetheless, HBO’s Watchmen has proved it is possible to take ideas from Moore’s work and create something new and compelling, much the same way he took the Charlton Comics characters and made them the Minutemen or took literary characters for his own in works like The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen or Lost Girls. Granted, Moore himself said as much at one point, indicating the medium of comics was an intrinsic part of the Watchmen experience. And his distaste has left some of his fans believing his work should never be adapted to other mediums. When pressed by journalists about adaptations, Moore is cantankerous – mainly because he is tired of answering the question.
