Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Harry got conked on the head because he turned his back on the "helpless" girl. tch.
I liked this Morgan MUCH better than the psycho in the books.

I liked this Morgan too.
Also, the BSG bonus scene was cute.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil
In that final scene between Laura and Bill, I was yelling at the TV--"Kiss her again, you old fool!!" This dance they do is fun to watch, but oh, the UST! And I also loved that bonus scene, because (a) hello, Felix!, and (b) it proved that we the audience aren't the only ones observing that dance.
Next week's preview looked interesting. I love that they're bringing back Tyrol's unionizing on New Caprica.

Zenkitty, (and anyone else) just to help me along, why did you like this Morgan over the book Morgan?
Even barring the books, the interview at scifi.com had him stating that he considered himself a mentor-figure, and he seems of an age with Harry-- even younger, perhaps. I'm still working on my brain with a prybar IRT Morgan, so it may take me a day or so to formulate a coherent opinion of TV!Morgan.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
I actually enjoyed this week's Dresden quite a bit. I still think the replacements for Harry's rod and staff look really silly, but an overall enjoyable episode. And Harry getting conked on the head for his over-zealous sense of chivalry is classic Dresden. Interesting story, some great humor, and Harry actually does quite a bit of magic (even if the tracking spell got sort of merged with potion making.)
Morgan is apparently a very different character from the books, but it doesn't bother me too much.
BSG was pretty good, even if it felt very filler-tastic, and I agree the deleted scene was highly amusing.

Book!Morgan would have never helped Harry, even when he said please. Of course, Book!Morgan would have also solved the situation by taking Sarta's (or whatever his name was) head from his shoulders, followed by Matthew's. Well, provided he wasn't too busy trying to prove Harry was the murderer to notice them in the first place.
I could definitely see where the actor got the mentor idea in the interview, as TV!Morgan was definitely trying to lead Harry's thought process along. Which is kind of disappointing. So far TV!Harry hasn't presented himself as the greatest of detectives. Book!Harry tends to have his own share of dumb luck to get through cases, but he can still detect circles around Book!Morgan. So I find it rather annoying that TV!Morgan seems to be a better investigator than TV!Harry. Especially since that's Harry's gig.
TV!Morgan is a more likeable character (though he's hardly warm and fuzzy) than Book!Morgan, but I think I prefer Book!Morgan as a foil for Harry.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman
I liked that Harry's issue with electronics was used in this episode, but I wish that they had elaborated on it. I'm sure that people who don't know the series think that he cast a specific spell .

I liked that too, but I think you're right. (And if he used incantations in the show like he does in the book, it would clarify matters.)

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Windi, it wasn't light, as such, but there was some funny, and it was ultimately very satisfying.
Also, Bob is a big ol' perv. Of which I approve.
Ok, thanks, this was the info I needed. It sounds like I shall enjoy this episode, but at another time. We settled on an episode of Family Guy.
