By the way, have any more movies, TV series or videos been made of the Dresden Files besides that 1 year of TV?

Well, excellent if it actually gets made and either televised or released in theaters.

Speaking of TV Dresden, I've been binge-watching Arrow on Netflix. Took me a few episodes to stop thinking of Paul Blackthorne as Dresden.

I know what you mean.

On another note, did anyone else get a mail from Goodreads? Apparently they will be interviewing Jim for the monthly newsletter and I was asked to submit questions.

I tried to watch Arrow once and I couldn't warm up to it. I hear that Harry Dresden and River Song are a couple in Arrow!!

I haven't watched much Doctor Who, at least not recently. My last favorite Doctor was the Ninth Doctor, so I managed to avoid that association. I tend to prefer more mature Doctors so perhaps I'll look into Series 8 and see how Capaldi is doing as the Twelfth.

Wow!! Interesting! I watched Dr.Who from its re-inception with Christopher Eccleston as Dr. Who, through David Tennant and to Matt Smith. Then I lost interest when Peter Capaldi came aboard and I ceased watching it.

Correct, although they are divorced. Alex Kingston only plays in about 5 or 6 episodes I think.

Really? Then you have missed some of the best episodes of the new series. I agree about more mature though, I still think Matt Smith was too young. His acting skills and the stories saved his run.

Really? Peter is a very good doctor. Too bad the stories of Season 8 was not that great (with a few exceptions). I really like his style, it reminds me of the classic doctors like Pertwee. I hope this is the last season for Clara though. Can't stand her anymore.

I sent in two questions. One if we will get more short stories with different POV's like Ebenezer or Michael. I think there will be one from the POV of Butters. The other question is about the procedure to become an advanced reader for his work. You never know...

It improves over time, I think its major downfall is that the main character is the worst actor of the bunch, but I still enjoy the show.

And the Dresden/Song thing is a "Sort of". They play a separated/divorced (I'm not sure which) couple and do not share a lot of screen time together. In fact, Song doesn't have much screen time at all. She is introduced either late 1st season or somewhere in the 2nd season.

I have an invite, but have no idea what I would like to ask, as yet.

She's in two episodes in Season 1, and three episodes in Season 2 (which I haven't watched yet).
