Or even more banally, after Netflix's Altered Carbon, which I've only seen an episode or two of, yet it so easily encapsulates the platonic ideal of what a gritty cyberpunk show should look and feel like, to the point of banality? I'm not even picking on that specific series, it's probably not even the only example of that type of show that's been created in the last decade.

In short, how do you elevate it to more than a second-rate, middling, competent and utterly forgettable adaptation lost among the streams and appealing only to fans of the original work.
