Its kinda like X-files but the investigator is a wizard and he has his own "agency" or whatever, he isn't part of the FBI or police forces.. I saw one episode and it was pretty cool.

I read the books and was rather disappointed. The problem is, there is so much backstory that they could not fit it into a tv show.
And what happened to the damn talking skill! (Bob)

I didn't enjoy the first episode, but I do like the subject matter. It is different then the everyday natural disasters or mutant creature attacks on SciFi.

I had been mulling over posting a thread about movies like Constantine... been craving a horror fantasy fix, and I loved Hellblazer, this show pretty much fits the bill.
Anybody seen that other one, like supernaturals or something? Two brothers, mother was killed, they're out fighting darkness, etc...
Any good?

Just wanted to say, I liked the TV show, and thought the books were REALLY badly written. The premise of the books was good, the story ides were good, but the exectutino left a lot to be desired. They were written like a poor Douglas Adams knockoff, but were Adams was wittily funny, these didn't quite make it.
I have high standards for writing, I don't much enjoy Stephen King, either. I totally understand the entertainment value, I just don't care for it personally.
These books are good, just not great enough to keep me reading....
