    Should NEVER have been cancelled. I loved every minute.

    I had watched these when they first came out. I recently re-watched them on HULU. If I had seen the series first, by itself, and not known about the world the Jim Butcher had created in the Dresden Files, I'd have been okay with the series. I probably would've even enjoyed it more. If I'd seen the TV show and then read the books, I'd have appreciated that the show brought me to the books. That was not the case.Unfortunately, the writers, producers and directors strayed so far from the books, characters, magic, and mantra, that they created a poor interpretation, ignoring what made the books so great. I hope they try again, someday, but with each book becoming three 1.5 hour shows. Or, they could take the "Side Jobs" approach to a series and never really do the books, except as full blown blockbuster movies. Now that's a good idea.

    I just watched the whole series on Netflix and was disappointed to see it was canceled. Clearly the network didn't realize it had a good thing going. Awesome stories, good suspense, good mix of magic and reality. Good acting. All in all a fun show to look forward to. If you are that niche of viewers who likes a mix of the film noir, a little bit of horror, with a load of fantasy and humor, then you will want to watch this show. Story lines are a clever, the dark forces are creatively thought out. And the way they are battled are also full of surprises. I'm constantly looking for good Sci-Fi/Fantasy, and its not always easy to find, because by good, it needs not only the components of magic, but a little world history and research, great character development, and compelling character interaction. Also the Dresden files had the action, sexual tension, and suspense that makes the show having you come back for more.

    I am with everyone who thinks this show should be brought back. Awesome series got hooked on it on net fl-ix. Producers are so dumb they kill off all the good series and allow the junk to rain supreme. Prim example of another great series cut off would be Jericho. That is how diverse a viewer I am. To all TV producers wake the hell up.This show has everything a great show should have. Its not like the developers had a hard time to write the script hell a author already wrought everything, all it need to be is broke down yet no they canceled it.Eureka is great as well hopefully it will finish off well. Producers also need to go back and finish of Heroes there are thousands of us still left hanging at the lack of a ending to that series.
