Currently pondering:

Where should we go for vacation?

 
Branson MO.  Because it has to be seen to be believed.

Yeah, I'm sure Hell has it's unique attributes, too.  Very scenic.  I'll pass.   :P

I do have a question for Robert: how come, in Walls when Bob introduced himself to Raychelle, did he give his name as Bob and not Robert Bainbridge? Seems you'd give a potential client, especially one you were trying to quickly impress, your full name. Also would've been a great way to give the audience Bob's full name. Are we ever going to hear it actually said?

He was trying to be all modern and accessible for the pretty girl.  And yes, we will hear the entire thing.

So, Robert... Seven episodes later, now that things are a bit more settled, are you generally happy with the fan/critic reactions to the show? :)

Pretty happy so far.  I'd love it if the rating were about 25% to 50% higher, but Sunday nights are tough sledding.

How's the weather?

Great!  I'm back in Los Angeles.  Another beautiful spring day today.  Though the winter has been a little dry, so fire season is going to suck.

Are you pondering what I'm pondering?

Currently pondering:

Where should we go for vacation?

Should I take another gig to fill the time while I wait to hear about the renewal for DF?

Given my very limited play-time, is it really worth leveling my human mage up to 70?  Or should I just transfer all her gold to my undead priest?

SQUEEE--Robert's prevaricating. Could Ancient Mai actually be a dragon?

I'm not prevaricating!  I'm equivocating.

Hey, Robert! Quick question: Do the Red Court vampires have addictive saliva, as they do in the books?

Not in the one hour long version of STORM FRONT they don't.   ;D

21
Robert, does your production company own the Dresden Files merchandising rights?  Will you be releasing any cool stuff for us?  ;D

God, I wish.  That's up to Lionsgate.  I certainly hope so.

Robert, in the Bad Blood thread I asked a question that got lost in the conversation. In the confrontation with Harry, it looked to me as though Ancient Mai's face slipped into what appeared to me as a dragon. Are all the wardens in the tv Dresdenverse human? Do some of them have other identities?

No comment.  And Mai's not a warden, for what it's worth.

23
Robert, quick question about Storm Front. Actually, two questions, but they go together. Where does Storm Front fall in a continuity timline, and did some of the reshoots done shift the episode around? 

Yes.

Quote
And, were any actors/actresses, such as Ancient Mai, replaced in reshoots?

Mai was not reshot.  This is not a continuity error. 

24
Robert, I'm curious. In the tv Dresdenverse, it seems everyone can see and knows about Bob. Is it true that whoever has the skull controls Bob? Doesn't Bob have the potential to do great evil with the wrong "master"? Will there be any attempts by some of the villians to remove Bob from Harry's care?

Not everyone knows about him, though everyone can see him.

Yes.

Yes.

Stay tuned.

Hey Robert, will we be seeing Michael in season 1? Or ever? :)

Not season one, hopefully eventually.

Robert...Harry's apparent lack of a gremlin-field around electronics keeps coming up.

Here's my theory from another thread:
On the show, magic is less blatant. I'm assuming (the issue hasn't come up yet to explain it) that Harry's gremlin-field in the show only manifests when he's near something AND using magic, rather than an ambient field like the books. The candles are mostly in his lab, and I bet when Jim's blackberry goes bad in the show, Harry's working magic in the morgue.

This hasn't become an issue in the show as yet, so if I'm right, there hasn't been an opportunity to write dialogue for it. The average viewer doesn't need to know this right off, just the fans of the books.

So am I right in this...magic only screws with stuff when actually ACTIVE, rather than a general field of roll-the-dice around Harry? Or dead wrong?

Yeah, that's pretty much it.  Or when he's upset or emotional.  Or when the stuff is delicate and high tech.  Note how he hovered back from the computer in Boone.  Note that he still has a ton of candles around and cooks with gas (which is electronic free if you hand light the gas burner).  Note that his lab is basicially entirely electricity free.  And he uses a rotary phone.  And he still drives the a relic of a car, too.

Doesn't Adam Baldwin have his own TV show right now?

Robert: What's with the middle name in the credits? Are you so all important that you need to tell everyone your full name? Kind of like how people emphasise the "ESQUIRE" in their name to make them sound all important.
I'm kidding, I imagine it has something to do with someone else having the same name, but aren't you affraid a wizard will use your full name against you? Or do you have 2 middle names?

There was a Robert Wolfe who worked on DYNASTY, actually.  I think he was even credited as Robert H. Wolfe, freakishly enough.  And there's also the NY Times Crossword puzzle guy.  I could drop the middle name on my credits since I'm probably the most prominent Robert Wolfe working in the biz right now, but I'm just used to using my middle name as well now.  If I ever get one of my features made, I'll probably drop the middle name just to add confusion.

And I was raised Catholic, so I have a confirmation name, too.  Which makes me wizard proof.  =P

Anyone ever consider asking fellow Canadian Jewel Staite to make a guest appearance??


Note from Mickey: In a re-occuring role, maybe? Pretty pwease with pizza on top?

She's on my list of folks I'd like to use eventually if we find a good role for her.  But she's in Vancouver, not Toronto, and she works a lot so the stars would have to align just right.

Robert, when I was looking at the gallery of pictures over at SciFi, there was a picture of Bob holding Harry's hockey stick. After the Box O'Doom, I sure hope that Bob won't be the giver of all things magic to Harry, because Harry made his own magical stuff in the books. Is Bob going to endow the hockey stick with some sort of magic for Harry?

Bob holding the hockey stick?  Not possible.  Harry made it himself and Bob can't touch stuff anyway.  Must be a posed pic or something.

Yeah, I was wondering about that too and was going to ask you how coporeal is Bob.

Also, we know Melissa and Ms. Timmons/Skin walker could see Bob, but can normal everyday people see him (ie: Murphy)?  He went to his skull before she entered the room in TBI.

Everyone can see Bob.  And Bob can't touch anything.

Robert, a co-worker of mine swears he saw Melissa in the Hair of the Dog preview. Should we brace ourselves for a continuity glitch due to out-of-order airing, or is he on crack?

I'd check his "tabacco" very carefully.
