It turns out that 'The Dresden Files' is actually kinda fun. Not as good as my other Sci-Fi babies, it doesn't have the same spark, but it's still quite ok.

Yeah, the show certainly failed to deliver on the promises. Especially that with the bang at the end of the pilot, I really expected some hardcore action from now on. And the follow-up was just, well, shockingly mellow.

It has to be. And it is, of course ;)

Think think think. And 15 is an adventure classic. I'm sure you'll get it.

And yet again it turns out that the first intuition is right. Good job.
