I would hope no one gets this idea. Mad Max is at its best with bold impressions and hints and implications of worldbuilding, without entirely giving away its hand. I appreciate glimpses that make me wonder, I don't need a light shined in every crevice.

Similarly, I like Max himself as a semi-mythical figure. He's Robin Hood or something. The stories around him usually agree on major aspects, but the details and timelines can get muddled between stories.

I think a detailed TV show would just strip all that mystique away. You might say "then don't make it centered on Max", and I would say- then it shouldn't be explicitly in the Mad Max setting. Make a post apocalyptic TV that pulls from Mad Max but isn't constrained by it, and doesn't affect it.
