That said, I didn't care for the actual actor much at all, Bob lost all his fun in favor of being some brit guy.Change for the sake of change was the VW=Jeep, but not a big deal.They should have made a point about magic interfering with science though, if it was going to be an issue. SInce they didn't, I think it will be another part of the Dresden world that is lacking. Threshold's must have been too tough to explain, at least in the pilot. I really expected the pilot to have more explanation of the basics, but they didn't even really get into magic much at all.I can understand making it his Uncle, though they should have made it clearer they meant "maternal uncle" earlier I think. I didn't care for most of the dad/uncle stuff though.I guess no Mister either.All in all, can't judge acting by the first episode, but no one was particularly good in this episode. It might be a decent series, but enjoying it will probably involve disassociating it from Dresden Files' books in my mind.Actual plot of the episode was lacking IMO. The Ravenfolk were okay, the skinwalker was boring and silly. Disabling his wards like that was bleh, the White Council mage in general led a big chunk of Blehness. Having a dead woman, but the police never contact her work, and so apparently she goes to work without problem. But heck, they really just assumed it was the lady anyway, so why bother double checking? The DoomBox was just dumb for me. Plus I always hate when someone gives up information to the Evil Doer so that the torturing will stop. If she really was solo, she would have killed Harry anyway.Anyway, I'm not a big Sci-Fi channel fan, I'll give it a few episodes to see if it catchs my interest enough for me to remember where the channel is. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
