da, ipak nije tako losa ova adaptacija Childhood's End-a sveukupno. Jeste u Clarke-ovoj kjizi proces duže trajao, sporije, fazno i prirodnije - sveukupno minimum 6-7 decenija i opisuje se postignuto planetarno neko vrlo harmonicno 'socijalisticko' drustvo pred kraj. U seriji je proces ubrzan na pola, ili čak na trećinu.
I imamo vrlo dramaticno 'uzletanje u nebo' sve dece istovremeno, i ne vidimo da se drustvo nešto mnogo po drustvenoj strukturi uopste promenilo od onog kakvo je bilo.

„Night three of ”Childhood’s End,„ titled ”The Children,„ took what was already a fairly dark drama about an alien invasion and upped the ante with everyone’s children being taken from their families in order to follow a little girl named Jennifer, to eventually be controlled by the Overmind and lead to the destruction of Earth and humanity as we know it.
Fans of Arthur C. Clarke’s 1953 novel on which the miniseries is based know that the book gets more involved in what exactly the children are for, as they take over their own continent and eventually are what causes the Overlords to leave Earth. Executive producer Matthew Graham tells Zap2it they wanted to include more of that part of the book, but it came down to time and money.”
I overlordi su surovije predstavljeni nego u knjizi, a i Rikijeva sudbina je u seriji nepotrebno tragicna (a knjizi nije)
