Implying that television shows are made without forethought or literary quality is a gross exaggeration. What movies have is a bigger budget and more time per installment, not better writing.
You also said that you only read when necessary, but watch movies because they are "well thought out." If you think that movies are more well thought out than good books then you sir are sadly mistaken. Half the good movies out there are based on books of either all text or comic varieties, and even then they usually pale in comparison to the originals.
