Said pretty much by everyone who likes the series even a little bit.

Because really that's the biggest reason. Potential. Like so many other failed ventures, Twilight had potential by having interesting characters (aside form the main 3 ha!) and lore (aside from the sparkle-ness...).

If anyone wants to be disappointed, go read Stephenie Meyer's notes that give more detailed background info on some of the other Cullens and vampires. She focused on the wrong couple. Alice/Jasper were so much more interesting with their origin stories. Even Rosalie has a decent story. Carlisle... the whole book probably should've been about him... how he came to be, his time with the Volturi, and what became of him when he left.

She had some good ideas, but if in the hands of maybe a few writers for a tv show it could've been much better. And probably people would praise the show (or at least have a less crazy following) instead of the joke Twilight actually is.

I agree with you about the side characters. Most of them were so much more interesting and well-developed compared to Edward and Bella - and had more relatable problems as well.

I wont be surprised if eventually she does sell/loan the rights and a tv show is made which is inspired by the books/movies but not a play by play copy. Something like The Vampire Diaries and True Blood.
