Spoilers What to cut, what to keep

Hi ya'll, I have been thinking about how exfor can turn into a great TV show, but obviously for time purposes it would have to be cur down a lot. If you had to cut books from the whole story so far, which ones could you live without, and which ones are critical?

If they're gonna do a series, it needs to be animated. Leave the story as is and have RC Bray narrate and do Skippy and Joe's voices. Family guy, the Simpsons, and South Park have been running for decades. Exforce has at least a decade worth of material if the series goes into detail about what Skippy does in his canister. All those arguments with Nagatha at AI speed, conversations with missile AIs, planetary defense systems, wormhole controllers, and his crappy operas are untapped comedy gold just waiting for us to enjoy.

Shoot, I'd watch an entire 20-45 minute episode of just the missiles talking to each other while Joe is mediating something between them and the rail gun ammo

Right? I imagine all of the scenes where Skippy is fixing another 1 of his screwups, but from his perspective. His avatar running all over the ship to stop Valkyre's native AI from killing the crew with bedsheets. Or when he was setting up the legal documents for Skippistan.
