*** The show might leave some older viewers scratching their heads at the fact that the Rangers all have [[HumongousMecha Zords]] and [[AnimalMotifs costume emblems]] based on prehistoric animals, even though they got their powers and equipment from [[MentorArchetype Zordon]]--a wise alien trapped in a time warp, who has no logical reason to be interested in extinct creatures from Earth's past. For that matter, how the hell does Zordon even know what dinosaurs ''look like''? And if he's from another planet, why does he have a Command Center on Earth with a stasis tube to contain his consciousness? Well, in ''Series/KyoryuSentaiZyuranger'', all of those things made perfect sense. The Rangers' mentor was an [[ReallySevenHundredYearsOld immortal]] human wizard named Barza, the Rangers themselves were warriors from an idyllic past [[OneMillionBC when humans and dinosaurs lived in perfect harmony]], and their vehicles were gifts from a race of godlike beings who took the forms of animals. The American redub replaced Barza with Zordon and cut out the prehistoric backstory, but forgot to explain why the Rangers and their mentor were obsessed with dinosaurs.

**danger. Granted, he seems to come to the conclusion that "Stephano" is from the Herpetological Society before he gets such messages, so it may not have occurred to him to reexamine what he thought was going on once he did, but this seems unlikely since Uncle Monty is portrayed as rather smart, and Olaf makes an attempt on his life (which Monty seems to recognize for what it is) before he gets the messages.

* ''Series/TheHandmaidsTale'' gave [[TheTheocracy The Republic Of Gildead]] the AdaptationalBadass treatment in two significant ways, likely because the showrunners expect it to be a LongRunner and perhaps feared mainstream audiences would not take an EvilEmpire that played FascistButInefficient and DystopiaIsHard as straight as the novel did seriously as a threat. But these changes don't make in-universe sense because Gilead's origins and policy aren't fundamentally changed:
** It's implied in [[Literature/TheHandmaidsTale the novel,]] that Gilead only controls most of the eastern seaboard, and is losing a civil war against parts of the U.S. loyal to the constitution, which it eventually does in the book's epilogue and sequels. In the series, however, Gilead is depicted as almost as powerful as the pre-takeover US with nuclear missiles, fighter jets, and [[WeHaveReserves enough soldiers to]] flood its city streets while also fighting a war. By later seasons, it appears to have conquered the entire continental U.S., and turns its attention to a potential war/conquest of Canada. The only real explanation is a throwaway line from a former US soldier claiming all police and soldiers were abruptly declared Guardians of Gilead. This implies that, despite Gilead's ideology not having been popular enough before their coup to have any notable representation in the US congress, presidency or supreme court, the majority of U.S. soldiers and police betrayed their oaths to the constitution to fight for a repressive theocracy against fellow US citizens who still call themselves Americans and practice democracy. This also contradicts most other depictions of Gilead's forces as either mercenaries or radicalized civilians, as they were in the book.
** Gilead's policies to deal with the fertility crisis are the same in both the novel and series; give all fertile women to the movement's leaders to serve as [[SexSlave sex slaves,]] and have any "Handmaid" who fails to bear a child killed or banished for supposed sins, never once acknowledging that most of the Commanders are likely sterile. They also ban most modern medicine and refuse to research scientific cures for infertility or use artificial birthing out of religious doctrine. In the novel, these are strongly implied to be as bad for the country's birth rate as they sound, but in the series, other countries acknowledge Gilead's practices as a NecessarilyEvil, and Gilead is able to trade fertile women for other resources and diplomatic leniency, meaning Gilead's policies are inexplicably RepressiveButEfficient.

* AdaptationInducedPlotHole:
** A minor case in ''Literature/TheMysteriousAffairAtStyles'', but a plot point in the investigation involves the suspicious manner in which Lawrence insisted that his stepmother's death is natural, and his feeble attempt to suggest that Mrs. Inglethorp might have been ''accidentally'' (rather than willfully) administered due to an overdose of her tonic. When Poirot mentions this oddity, Hastings dismissed it as a common layman mistake, until Poirot reminds his friend that while Lawrence is not a doctor, he has a medical degree and is thus qualified as one. While this is true in the books, in the series, Lawrence ''is'' a medical professional, and he's working in the same hospital as Cynthia.
** The removal of Mr. Satterthwaite from ''Literature/ThreeActTragedy'' causes some slight changes to the progress of the investigation, which causes the eventual reveal to make less sense. In the books, Mr. Satterthwaite is the one who baits Poirot into being involved in the case (the others were quite reluctant to have him interfere), while in the ITV series, he's enlisted by [[spoiler:Sir Charles]]. The only problem? [[spoiler:Sir Charles is the murderer! Why would he ask for Poirot's help?]]
** The broad hint that Tim Allerton is gay and the removal of the friendships between Poirot & Tim's mother and Poirot & Rosalie Otterbourne creates a good-sized motivational plothole in the ''Literature/DeathOnTheNile'' adaptation. In the book, Poirot lets Tim off the hook for the theft of Linnet's pearls, as Poirot knows Rosalie Otterbourne and Tim are in love. It's established that Poirot feels sympathy for Rosalie over what she's gone through, and wants the two to be happily married. In making Tim gay, though, that removes the whole motive for Poirot to let Tim go, and worse, adds even more unnecessary cruelty to the TraumaCongaLine that Rosalie endures in the story.

The only problem? [[spoiler:Sir Charles is the murderer! Why would he ask for Poirot's help?]]
** The broad hint that Tim Allerton is gay and the removal of the friendships between Poirot & Tim's mother and Poirot & Rosalie Otterbourne creates a good-sized motivational plothole in the ''Literature/DeathOnTheNile'' adaptation. In the book, Poirot lets Tim off the hook for the theft of Linnet's pearls, as Poirot knows Rosalie Otterbourne and Tim are in love. It's established that Poirot feels sympathy for Rosalie over what she's gone through, and wants the two to be happily married. In making Tim gay, though, that removes the whole motive for Poirot to let Tim go, and worse, adds even more unnecessary cruelty to the TraumaCongaLine that Rosalie endures in the story.

* ''Series/{{Reacher}}'': Joe's notes mention "Gray's Kliner File" as a source of information in his investigation, but it's never explained how he knows about the file. In the book, Gray contacted a New Orleans homicide cop who investigated Kliner for murdering EPA officials to find out what the Kliner family was up to before they came to Margrave. That cop's name is on Joe's list, so he presumably told Joe about Gray's file. In the show, the third phone number on Joe's list belongs to an [=EPA=] office and it's never mentioned that Gray had any contact with them.

And if he's from another planet, why does he have a Command Center on Earth with a stasis tube to contain his consciousness?

The Rangers' mentor was an [[ReallySevenHundredYearsOld immortal]] human wizard named Barza, the Rangers themselves were warriors from an idyllic past [[OneMillionBC when humans and dinosaurs lived in perfect harmony]], and their vehicles were gifts from a race of godlike beings who took the forms of animals. The American redub replaced Barza with Zordon and cut out the prehistoric backstory, but forgot to explain why the Rangers and their mentor were obsessed with dinosaurs.

The TV series reversed this, making Woodbury a sanctuary and the prison less secure. This makes the Governor's vendetta against Rick's group seem rather pointless, especially given that he was fairly reasonable in his first encounter with Michonne and Andrea. He did eventually get a more plausible reason for his hatred -Revenge on Michonne for [[spoiler: stabbing him in the eye and killing his zombified daughter]]- but this was only after the conflict between their groups was well underway, and it's also made clear that even if Rick handed Michonne over to him as a peace offering, he'd destroy the prison anyway ForTheEvulz.
