Fiction Adaptation - Ideas for TV Show to base in Essay

For my essay I will be focusing it on a couple of things; I will be looking into the TV series "Dexter" and also the novel "Darkly Dreaming Dexter" and comparing and contrasting them. I will look at the difference from book to show and see how much or little the show has changed from the novel. Also I will look at the different types of adaptation; Transposition, this is when a show strictly to the novel and doesn't change anything. Commentary, this is when you keeps some parts of the novel but change others and Analogue, this is when you take the idea of the novel but change everything else when adapting it. I will look at which type of adaptation "Dexter" fits best into.

Another part of my essay I will look at the TV show "Game of Thrones" again I will look at the show and novel and compare them. I will look at the difference from book to show and see how much or little the show has changed from the novel. Again looking to see what type of adaptation it fits into.

After this I will look into the post modernism theory to see where the theory come into the shows.
