YES!! But also, please be good, please be good! Apple Orders ‘Neuromancer’ Series Based on William Gibson Novel. “Per the official logline, the series ‘will follow a damaged, top-rung super-hacker named Case who is thrust into a web of digital espionage and high stakes crime with his partner Molly, a razor-girl assassin with mirrored eyes, aiming to pull a heist on a corporate dynasty with untold secrets.’”

Well I thought The Peripheral was a B+. It fell short of an A, because it was not long enough to tell the full story. But it was much better than I expected.
Fingers crossed on ‘Neuromancer'.
I wish it had been longer also and was very disappointed when the 2nd season was cancelled.
@corlin I now have more faith in series being good. These huge companies have realized that doing the work themselves is way outside of their competencies and instead go out and buy them from someone who knows what they are doing. Still, my heart still skips a beat when it's a work of fiction I love.
@corlin I'd have settled for a second season of Agency.
@corlin I don't know I would call Molly Millions a "girl". I'm pretty sure she was a grown-ass self-made woman professional.
: )
@AskTheDevil
Yep.
And a kick ass woman to boot.
But it's Variety... so.
@corlin As I recall, nobody even knew Molly's age - she had a new face, highly-altered cyber-body, and went to great lengths to erase her past and memory. What little was described of her past in the books she appeared in leads one to believe that they were far from a child.
Razor-girl. Sounds cute.
@corlin
The Peripheral was very good, I thought.
There has been talk of a Neuromancer movie for decades with nothing to show for it.
