And whatever hope I had for the show is gone, fans are going to compare it to the games which the show will inevitably fail to stack up to, new watchers "might" find enjoyment but the fast pacing of craming the entire first game into a 6-12 episode run time will most likely ruin it

Episode 1 - Eden Prime ; Becoming a Spectre

Episode 2 - Finding Liara, into Noveria

Epidode 3 - Noveria

Episode 4 - Virmire

Episode 5 - Ilos

Episode 6 - First Battle of Citadel

Only thing I dropped is Feros; and that's just because I dislike Feros relative to the others. You could fit in the Feros bits of lore elsewhere in the dialogue or whatever. I'm not a screen writer. I just don't think it's a terrible approach if they get decently long episodes and really concise writing.

Eh.... I think Illos could be also in the final episode, not that much of note happen on it by itself with having no character. As much as Feros is sorta ignored on the long run, I think seeing the effects the Thorian on people could be interesting on TV.
