After months of uncertainty, the fantasy/mystery series has been cancelled and won’t be returning for a second season.
The Dresden Files was based on a series of novels by Jim Butcher and followed the adventures of Harry Dresden, a wizard who helped the police solve cases. The show debuted on the Sci Fi Channel on January 21, 2007 and ran for 12 episodes. Though the series’ ratings weren’t very strong, a loyal fanbase had hoped that Dresden Files would be renewed for a sophomore year. That didn’t happen and Sci Fi has now confirmed that the series is done.
Perhaps not coincidentally, this news comes on the same day that its been announced that Dresden Files star Paul Blackthorne has joined the cast of new ABC drama Big Shots. Blackthorne will play a high-powered CEO that draws the envy of characters played by Joshua Malina, Dylan McDermott, Christopher Titus, and Michael Vartan. Big Shots will begin airing this Fall on Thursday nights, following Grey’s Anatomy on ABC. Stay tuned!

I just rented the dresden file series, and i really love it. I think it is one of the most well made produce tv series. It’s funny ,thrilling ,suspence and very entertaining.They should put it back again.
This show is so creative! I found it on youtube and watched all 12 episodes in 2 nights. I really wish they would bring it back. While watching it I felt drawn in so much that I seemed to be a part of the show. It was a real joy to experience.
the show was soo good i thought they surely bring it back but they didnt i love that spark of each episode i drawn me in from the first minute of the first episode it too bad i think if they kept it running it would of caught more people
It really is too bad this series was cancelled. Both my boyfriend and I really got into it and were hoping their was a 2nd season out there but obviously not. We just discovered the series on Netflix. I’m sure it would have gotten more ratings eventually if more people had known about the series.
Just another disappointed fan. Why would such a fantastic show be cancelled?? I guess it’s the same guy who decided not to use M&M’s on ET .Bad decision!!!!! Sci-Fi you have lost it!!!!!
whoever made this decision should be fired and never allowed to work in t.v. again except for at msnbc
syfy you suck
I absoulty love this show very disappointed in sci fi cancel some off the less significate shows you have so we the people can be entertain please.
I loved that show. I was just checking to see when it would be back on. They keep scare tactics but cancel Dresden Files. Does not make sense.
