Popular serial turned agreeable time-passer, Dresden Files the TV show follows Chicago wizard Harry Dresden as he uses his for-hire services to solve crimes, occasionally in collaboration with a magic-unaware police detective Murphy. Available on Hulu and mildly entertaining, this one-season show of necessity strips out lots of the mythos and back story that apparently makes the novels by Jim Butcher, upon which the series is based, so interesting.

However, I discovered an interesting thing just now. Guess who does the audio book readings for the Dresden Files series? JAMES MARSTERS!!!!!!! That’s hot. Must track down one of these.
