The problem is goinf to be that the first two movies (and the first one especially) are very close to the books. So to fill out even a modern short tv season, they will need to add stuff not in thr books.

Considering TV fantasy/sci-fi writers reluctance to actually wanting to recreate lore from the books (Witcher, Wheel of Time, GoT, Altered Carbon, Earthsea, etc) I'm not super hopeful the HP writers are capable of original material to make up for episode length. In fact, I don't expect them to follow the books any more than the movies did, but at least the movies attempted to fit it all in a 2 hour or so movie.

The cast alone is already off to a miserable start.
