    I don’t believe they have stated how many episodes this is planned for. So, who knows how far into the story they are planning to go. I suspect that the production committee has already planned for a longer-running series or else why re-adapt a series that stopped airing years ago? Time will tell…

      I hope so, from my understanding the book series was finished some years ago so there’s no reason not to adapt the whole thing unless they want to be pricks about it.
