10 things we want to see in season one of HBO's 'Harry Potter' show
It's expected that there will be cuts when adapting a book to a film, but the "Harry Potter" show will have more time to faithfully adapt the books.
In the upcoming HBO adaptation of "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone," there are several aspects from the original book that fans are eager to see included. One of the first chapters that could be featured is Harry Potter's perspective from his uncle Vernon's viewpoint, setting the tone for the blending of the wizarding world with the Muggle world and showcasing the Dursleys' bigotry.
Another important element is showing more of Harry's life before Hogwarts, including his letters, peculiar incidents, and the Dursleys' attempts to hide their abuse. Additionally, there are hints of the Sirius Black character, as Hagrid mentions borrowing a bike from "young Sirius Black," which will pay off later in the series. The first meeting between Harry and Draco Malfoy is also a significant detail, as it creates suspense and foreshadows Harry's struggles in the wizarding world.
Lastly, fans hope that the TV series will delve deeper into the friendships Harry forms with his classmates, such as Seamus Finnegan and Dean Thomas, and showcase other notable characters like Peeves.
