When is the 2 hour stormfront going to be shown?  That'd be on my list of things I have no clue about as well. Summer? |

This hit me last night. I recently got HDTV at my home, and upgraded the DTV setup to accommodate that fact. Among the channels you get with the HD package is Universal HD, which is shows from the Universal line up. Ones I have notably caught were re-runs of Enterprise, and an episode of BSG, and an episode of SG:Atlantis.
I was wondering, was the series filmed in such a way that an HD rendition would be possible? What ratio was it actually filmed in? Things like that? I'm curious because whereas I havent bought into either of the HD formats for discs (HD-DVD v. Blu Ray), I would love to see the series in HD.

They have been showing the series on Sky HD in the UK concurrent with the show's airing on Sky One. That would indicate they have an HD version of the show availalable. Lee Whiteside SFTV.org |

Thanks, please us know as soon as you hear something. By the way have you heard anything about the DVD??? Please, before you submit a question, take a moment to browse through the past few pages of entries to see if it has already been answered. Robert addressed your question ten days ago. Have some respect for Robert's busy schedule. I'm sure the information will be widely repeated here and on the SciFi channel website as soon as it is made public. --Priscilla |

Robert, if you see this, I want to add my voice to say thank you so much for what you, Paul, Terrence, Valerie and all the people behind the scenes for the great episodes you did produce, for getting me into a new fandom, reading all 9 books, and everything. I so very fervently hope we get a 2nd season, and that we get to see more of Harry Dresden's world. Which I have grown to love. Good luck on 4400, and I so very much hope you will be coming back. I have written my letters, online and postal, and done what I could. I send love to all of you. And hope that sign on Harry's door won't be prophetic.

TDF was shot in super 16 then transferred to digital for post. We have a 16:9 aspect ratio, so we're very much HD friendly. you may see a bit of grain in certain situations, but that's part of our charm. =P |

As someone who has been lucky enough to see samples of the HD version as aired by SkyOneHD in the UK, I'd say it scales up very nicely. Any grain that might be noticeable on occasion is no big deal. A lot of shows add that 'gritty' appearance on purpose.  |

Returning to the issue of the series hewing to the novels was it just me or did anyone else get a distinct feeling that Second city bore an striking resemblence to "Fool Moon"? I mean instead of the wold belts you had the branding iron but the theme was much the same and the BI was a gift given to a cop by someone else...
Either way, I loved the ep and in fact, with only one exception, the entire first season...I didn't much care for Bad blood because it didn't have murphy in it. For some reason, this series really works with all three leads involved..nice chemistry between Mr. BlackStone and Ms. Cruz and nice chemistry between Mr. Blackstone and Mr. Mann (Who, IMHO steals every scene he's in.) Fabulous work on the part of all three.

Yet another question about Bob...
Can he go invisible? I know he hides whenever there's company that isn't supposed to know of proof of the supernatural or he'll go back through the wall to the lab or into his skull but Harry had him spy for him in Things that go bump and I'd like to know how he managed that without the Wardens spotting him peeking through a wall.

If he could go invisible, why would he keep needing to go into another room when people come visiting?

Ok, wait. Since episode 8 was basically the plot of Storm Front, does this mean we won't be getting a two hour movie?

Come up out of the floor just to eye level under a piece of furniture. Look down out of the ceiling. If his shape-assuming power works on inanimate objects, pretend to be a floor lamp  Also, he cold have Harry sculpt a bust of him, then just occupy it as needed. OK, now I'm being silly. My bad. |
