It's premiering on the 21st right before Battlestar Galactica. It's one of my favorite book series' and I guess I'm wondering if anyone else is at all interested.

I watched the Bstar marathon the other day and saw the preview roughly 14,000,000 times. I will be watching, it looks pretty intriguing.

Yeah I saw the preview a lot when The Lost Room was on. I'll give it a shot, it looks like it could be pretty good.

this is on my most anticipated list

I can't stand cop dramas, but I just saw a preview and wolf parade was playing in the backround, so it can't be that terrible.

so, did anyone catch it? I was a tiny bit irked by the liberties they had already taken from the books, but I still enjoyed it a lot.

Murphy is a tiny blonde woman, but really tough, and her name is Karrin, not Connie. There happens to be a real Chicago Officer named "Karen Murphy" so they changed the name. He has a girlfriend who's of Latin descent, so if anything, the actress playing "Connie" should be "Sarah"

Bob doesn't live in the skull, he IS the skull. And he's a little more sarcastic.

His duster is magical, and he never goes ANYWHERE without his Wizard Staff and Blasting Rod.

Justin isn't his uncle.

There are more, but I'm drawing a blank right now.

If you liked the show, pick up the books, they really are great stories.

[gilatron5000]

it's probably best to start from the beginning, did you pick up "Storm Front"?

[ThexQuietxCull]
