You forgot the episode of Daria where she takes the weird, sheltered kid on a date to a pizza place and then to an arcade where they put on VR helmets to simulate medieval combat. Daria gets sick and sits it out while her date makes friends with the jocks.

William Gibson belongs with Allen Moore, Philip Pullman, and (debatable) Hunter S Thompson as beloved writers whose work have never, and with the way studios work, will never get decent movie adaptations, as their work is too good, too layered, and too complex to be appreciated in a tightly compressed two hour format

You need to accept the fact that there will never be a single good movie based on a Gibson book. As cinematic as they can be, the ideas and the actions that are taken are virtually (har) unfilmable - the stuff that can be turned into a movie is the standard thriller/scifi bullcrap, and I don't need to Gibson to be

I officially enjoyed reading these reviews more than I enjoyed watching the episodes. Weird.
