Andor's obviously a part of Star Wars, but it's very different to most Star Shows and was pretty cutting (so to speak).

If you mean in terms of stuff made purely for TV: Dark Matter (2024), For All Mankind, The Pitt, Severance, Shogun (as mentioned). You could add Slow Horses, that's apparently based on a book - but a lot of TV shows have always been based on some novel or comic.

Dark Matter is adapted from a book as well.

So it is. I forgot that. Eh, I still think that's fine though. A lot of TV series as I said, whether made last year or 20 years ago are adaptations of literature.

Excluding like sitcoms and procedurals
