I caught the first episode of "The Tripods" on PBS (Channel 13, NYC) last
night.  It's a half-hour series in ~25 parts based on John Christopher's
trilogy (THE WHITE MOUNTAINS, THE CITY OF GOLD AND LEAD, THE POOL OF FIRE).
So far, it seems quite well done.

I have a soft spot in my heart for the trilogy, since it was some of the
first SF I read, and if it's showing in your area, you may want to
check it out, too.
