DF TV Series / Re: POLL: End Game Opinion of the Series
« on: October 01, 2007, 07:07:39 PM »
As I've mentioned elsewhere, except for Terry Pratchett, I've never been a big SciFi/Fantasy fan.  My teenaged daughter was the one who made me watch The Dresden Files, and I have to say that I did enjoy it.  I'm sorry that it was cancelled.  I've signed the petition, and am going to buy a drumstick this weekend in hopes that it'll help find the show another home.  The show is very different than the books (which I absolutely love), but it's fun to watch.

Assuming that the show ends up coming back, what will happen with the guy who played Dresden?  I've read that he's got another show on a different station.  Will he come back, or would they have to get someone else?

DF Books / Re: Did you discover the books because of the TV Show?

I found the books through the TV show.  I only watched the show because both my BF and 14 year old daughter insisted.  Other than being a huge Terry Pratchett fan, I've never been a big fantasy/SciFi fan, and do tend to miss some of the references y'all throw into your posts.  I guess that's why God created Google.  Anyway... 

I got SF first, read it in one day, then went back to Borders and bought the rest.  I was on vacation, so I spent the week reading all the books.  I personally like the books much better than the show, and I did enjoy the show.  I think JB has done an excellent job with allowing his characters to grow and change over time, and the continuity has been amazing.  I don't know how he keeps track of it all.
