Title: Better than I expected for TV
Review: When I saw the first episode, I had some problems with it. The names were the same as in the book series but the people and situations weren't. Still, the TV episodes held together with their own internal consistency. I can see why Bob is not just a skull, that Murphy doesn't look a thing like the Karen Murphy in the books and so on.However, the acting quality is pretty good. The stories are typical television fare, but the series is much better than the run of the mill stuff. I like the TV Harry Dresden. The changes make sense. The visuals that recreating the book would require wouldn't make good video. And, the guy who plays Bob is excellent. If you're okay that the series only loosely resembles the novels it can be a lot of fun. I'm sad that the show only ran one season.
