Besides the VO issues I mentioned before, there are also words here and there either not captioned, or captioned wrong, and complete lines that are not captioned at all. I live in a fairly large deaf community, and the caption issues could pose significant problems with those viewers.

God, I hope so. My wife has pretty bad allergies so sometimes we have to use the CCing in specific sequences of shows when her ears are clogged up. So I've noticed that a LOT of shows have terrible CCing. We're checking into this, but when we're still making a lot of minor adjustments very close to broadcast (season one blues) it can't be easy for them.
BTW how much of a geek am I that whenever I see the abbreviation CC, I think it stands for "Crowd Control."

Since we've simplified the backstory a bit and since we have Dresden kill Justin much later in life than in the books, there's not much room for Ebenezar. In some ways we cannabalized the book version of Ebenezar into Justin and a bit into Morgan and a bit into Mai.
That said, I do like the character so it'd be fun to incorporate him in some way down the line.
Let the flames begin!
Shiggy:
Thanks for clearing all that up Robert, I'll fix my transcript and such so that I have it correct.
Oh, and if you need help with captioning, I can type fairly quickly and accurately...and I'm cheap. :)

Well...crap, man. I mean...crap. *sigh*
Ebenezar is kind of an important character in Harry's life, and his development into a responsible man. Plus, I was really looking forward to that kindly old man who could snap you in half without batting an eye, kind of like Wilford Brimley in The Firm, in his classic truck. (I really dig old trucks, probably the only reason I'd ever watch a rerun of MacGuyver is to see his truck on screen.)
Y'know...if you haven't finalized Mac's, maybe Eb and Mac could be business partners. It's never really been clear to me if Mac was a wizard, or if he was just tight with one. Maybe Eb is the one who helped him design the magic dispersing posts and work out the neutral territory agreements?
dawnsister:
I think it will be interesting to see how Ebenezar could materialize in some way down the road. I don't want it all just handed to us in the first few days. Those of us who know him would get it. I'm still putting in my request for Jason Statham as Mac though, could you work on that? ;-)
Harry seems much more Harry this week ~Lovin' it~ Great work! Oh, yeah and Bob had some good shiny Bobness to him too! Robert, You guys Rocked it this week! Congrats to you and the crew.
*Does that score me enough points for you to work on Mr. Statham? Just think of the ass kick'in he could hand out helping Harry. :0)
