The Dresden Files

Has anyone watched this? Read up on it on www.scifi.com and it looks quite good with a lot of promise. Episode 1 was on last week so I'm downloading it at the mo, episode 2 is aired 28 Jan so I'll let you know what it's like.

That's because he's a wizard. The real thing (and the only one listed in the Chicago phone directory). Whether consulting for the police on seemingly inexplicable crimes or following his own cases, he battles dark forces with a wry sense of humor.

Re: The Dresden Files

I got round to watching ep 1 yesterday and it was awful. Really predictable and that ghost I just wanted slap. SPEAK NORMALLY! I`ve downloaded ep 2 just to see if it improves. If not then I`ll not bother getting any more

Re: The Dresden Files

I'm finally getting through my backlog of TV shows and got to see the first 3 episodes of this. While I admit it is a little predictable and flawed in parts I still quite enjoyed it. Definitely not 'must see' tv but a decent show all the same. It's a bit of a no brainer but I'll watch a few more episodes to see if it gets better or I get bored of it.

Anyone else caught any of The Dresden Files?

Re: The Dresden Files

I pretty much agree with what you said homie. I've seen the first 8 eps, it reminds me of a poor mix between Supernatural/Medium/Ghost Whisperer. As you said, not ‘must see’ tv but it’s ok.
