Negative Positive
Title: If you DON'T think about the books it is an OK series.
Review: I am a HUGE Jim Butcher fan and have every book in the Dresden Files and well as the Codex Alera books. I love them all. I tried watching this when it first came out and hated it...mainly cause I was SO shocked at the watered down version of the books...so watered down as to be ALMOST but not quite unrecognizalbe. I have since tried watching it again and if I watch it on its own merit and forget the brilliant books it was based on...well there are STILL glaring problems, but these could have been overcome as with any new series kinks have to be worked out. I think it could have continued to grow and become even better. I actually enjoy it on its own merit. I think Sci Fi is extrememly stupid to take such a promising premise, ruin it, and then not even give it a decent chance. It really was a promising, well made show....too bad sci fi isn't as promising anymore...guess it isn't worth their time if it isn't really stupid and dumbed down.
Is the review positive or negative?
