Dresden Files, who would you cast?

Only 2 of them: Black Court and Red Court.

Bianca: not yet an enemy of Harry. But not what we'd call a friend either...

I said VARIOUS. That means more than one. :p

But even so I don't care that much about White Court...just yet.

This week episode annoyed me. Maybe because I was expecting something else from it...and got very little from it.

I hope next's week ep should be better.

I enjoyed the latest episode. They did a number of things that made me think, "Ah, that's the Harry Dresden I know from the books!".

I hope "Sharon" makes another appearance later so we can find out more about her and if she's up to anything beyond insurance fraud.

But while I liked the backstory about Bob, I wish they would focus more on Harry's backstory.

Sniffle,

I read some episode summaries on Wikipedia. I have a feeling Sharon will be making a return visit towards the end of the season.

*didn't think about that so much as people playing with dead things annoys/disturbs him*

At least if they aren't Orcus or Kyuss for some reason.

I liked the "Sharon" episode quite a bit, as did my wife. I thought it was twisty, and every time I thought I knew what was going on, something would happen.

Interestingly, in this one Bob comes right out and says something about Harry's effect on technology. Harry is casting more and more spells as we go on, and I like that, and the hockey stick got put into play last night as well.

It wasn't great TV, but it was good TV, and I think if they can maintain that level they could get renewed and possibly get a following.

Match,

That would be a nice change of pace, considering that BSG 2003 is seemingly floating off into its own world.

I was talking to someone who is a huge fan of the books and has had some personal contact with the author. Apparently one reason for the change in the order of airing episodes is that the pilot and maybe a couple of others had Bob as a skull and they needed to reshoot them after they felt it was not working visually.

I agree. And I had the same thought about Harry doing more spellcasting. I don't mind the hockey stick at all, I was just glad to see it do something. I also noticed that although he doesn't seem to have any difficulty with telephones (so far), Harry does have his apartment/office lit only with candles.

This is the second episode where he used it for spellcasting. Telephones are relatively simple technology compared to alot of stuff (note he doesn't have a cordless in the place).
