H.G. Wells' classic alien invasion story War of the Worlds is being adapted into a TV series. You would think a big epic project like this would be developed by a major cable network or streaming service, but nope... it's coming from MTV.

I don't watch any series on MTV because none of them look very good. I tried to watch their Scream series, but I just couldn't get into it. War of the Worlds has been adapted several times over the years, the most recent of which was Steven Spielberg's 2005 film, which ended up being a disappointment. I didn't care for the second half of that film.

Jeff Davis and writer Andrew Cochran, the team behind the series Teen Wolf, will be bringing it to life. But since I never cared for Teen Wolf, I'm not expecting anything special. I just imagine the War of the Worlds series will be just as mediocre.

I have very low expectations of MTV. They rank right below SyFy, though SyFy has been doing better with series than with feature films. I may try a few episodes of this.

After seeing the Shannara Chronicles, I'll bet this will be good.
