Not dissimilar to how Guillermo del Toro's "The Strain" TV series came
to be: it was a TV series idea that he pitched that nobody wanted,
collaborated with author Chuck Hogan to write the story as a book
trilogy instead, and when it sold well as a series of books the networks
said "Hey, we'd like to make a TV series based on that!"
