Dresden Files, Part Three

I just watch Sunday’s Dresden Files, and I’m still not sure that I like it. This episode was better in that it contained some more mystery, which is the heart of the Dresden Files books. There was actually some magic performed by Dresden, but not quite enough. I like the portrayal of the Dresden character, and I really love the actor. He’s not quite gritty enough, but I can deal with that.

I’m right on the edge of hating Bob. I can’t stand the actor, and the characterization of Bob is horrid. Bob has yet to prove his usefulness, and he’s nothing more than a snide wise-ass that plays Dresden’s conscience. That’s not his purpose. Well, not his full purpose.

I’m beyond the edge of hating Murphy. She doesn’t look right. She doesn’t act right. The more that I see of the actress, the more that I think Ron Jeremy’s hairy ass would look better in the role. Ok. Maybe I’m being a little harsh, but I think you get the point. Murphy showed a little bit of vulnerability near the end of the episode, so maybe there’s hope for the character. Murphy needs to stop being a huge bitch towards Dresden.

Despite my hard words towards the show, I do see some improvement. Enough improvement that I’m going to watch the third episode. We’ll see from there.
