It's official. We're done.

Just another thank you to Robert and crew for doing a great job with the series! And thank you Robert, in particular, for coming over to the forum and taking the time to answer all of our (sometimes insane) questions!

sad to hear this is really the end for the dresden files as we know it,
but hope still lingers, as it did for family guy and jericho,
maybe after a years hiatus, and mr Blackenthorne is off that ABC show (which i havent heard anything about, but then again, im from europe...)
but me being from europe, and still picking up the dresden files,
should show the people at scifi that this is actually a goldmine,
and they would be crazy to not renew it...

it seems like all decent shows get canned, just because those head honches dont earn enough, or maybe take a risk once in a while, when u look at frasier, u know it an be done
admittingly its an other genre of show, but when they shot the fist season, i bet producers were also worried if it would make it or not, being a spinoff of cheers..., and look how big that show has become...

if it doesnt come back, thx to all the people involved in making it, xcept the losers who canned it offcourse, and all the people that actually tried to revive harry and his fellow hoodlums

Am I the only one that is glad?  The show was a complete bastardization of the books.  I watched thinking they would get better but nope.  I understand that they would have to change stuff for tv but they took Jim Butcher's work, injested it, and then defecated the show.  Long live the books down with the tv show.

short of having a season-long continuous drama, i think they did as good a job as they could have in the case-per-episode format.  in fact, having watched the tv show long before even knowing who JB was, i'd say tv show was very good.  it captured the spirit of harry's world, had good characters, and kept true to the angle of harry the wizard private eye.  books tell stories of potentially world-changing events, tv show could have been taken as stories of what harry does day to day at his job, an aspect of harry's life that JB doesn't realyl get into too much.

but hey..thx for the input..glad the day wasn't a downer for everybody

I actually liked a lot (most, in fact) of the TV-inspired changes.  I'm bummed that it won't be back.

Many of us like the show.  It seems supicious to me that the exact same thing as this was said on another thread by someone else who has only posted once maybe twice.   Me thinks there's someone here working with double accounts as a means of hiding from fear of backlash for controvercial opinions.

Many got into the books because of the show.  And I felt that some aspects of the show, as Jim Butcher, himself, has said, were improvements on the books that he wished that he, himself, had done.  I, for one, felt the television version of Bob was an improvement upon the books.

You are a coward. I saw this same exact post on a different thread with a different name. You're going to a thread created by the show's writer to say that you hate the show, hiding under a false persona because you ARE a coward. I can't respect that.

Dang.  That sucks 

But thanks for what we did get, Mr Wolfe, and pass that on to everyone else for me, would you?




Even in the UK, we mourn the loss.

First, lets just get it straight that I have never had another account on this forum or any Dresden Files related forum.  Second, sorry for expressing a different opinion.  I really wanted to like the show but it just hurt watching it, knowing they could have done so much better.
