Netflix has them and it's AWESOME! A lot to be learned. If someone with secret powers wants to hide them he would do what Dresden's father did and become a mediocre magician ... brilliant!

The TV show is absolutely terrible compared to the book.

I really liked the hockey stick “wand”. Kind of made me start thinking that a mentalist’s pen could serve the same purpose as a magician’s wand, on those admittedly rare occasions when something needs to be hidden in the hand.
...what if I could read your mind?

Never heard of this. Sounds like an amusing premise though, so you've got my attention.

The books are absolute classics. Looking forward to seeing how the TV show compares.

I loved he books.
The series was good, but like everything enjoyable on SYFY, was cancelled too soon. I do have it on DVD. |

They have opted for shows with little to no production cost, reality shows and wrestling, as opposed to what their core audience has supported over the years. |

I really liked syfy back when they showed old stuff like UFO and Space 1999. I haven't watched that channel now for years.

The books are great. While some of the episodes are linked to the books most are not. I have all the books either in paperback or hardback. SOme may be found at BAMM on sell for $5 or $6.

The books are excellent. The tv show was ok on it's own, but did not stand up to expectations. I DID like Harry's "office" and lab (except for the soup bowl cauldron) and prefer the TV Bob to the book Bob. I had no idea Terrence Mann was from Kentucky till I watched the "making of"....
