That was...uninspiring. I can cope with Bob being a sort of ghost hologram that lives in a skull, instead of a disembodied horny Spirit of Intellect. But it would be nice in a show about Harry Dresden, Wizard, if he did some of that whatchacallit. Magic. Or Magik. Or even Majik. This is not a good adaptation. Which is making it difficult to judge its merits as just a show. I'll have to wait for a couple more episodes to see if its worthwhile to continue to watch. But so far, not so much...
EDIT: Also, while Blackstone has some of that "weight of the world on my shoulders"-ness that Harry Dresden has, he had no real sense of humor. Harry's like Spider-Man. Even if a demon's about to eat his head and then blow up the city he still cracks a joke...
