"I’m not a hardcore fan of The Dresden Files, but I would like to see a show like that available on SciFi. It’s got longevity written all over it.

In ratings for the key 18-49 demographic, it has ranked just behind the network’s powerhouse BATTLESTAR GALACTICA – which is especially good when one considers that Sci Fi runs the show in the highly competitive Sunday night time slot. Despite this, the network seems somehow unsupportive, and now that the show is up for renewal for a second season, sources indicate that network execs are leaning toward canceling it.
