We Want Terrence Mann as Bob in The Dresden Files Petition: Signature List Feed http://www.gopetition.com/signatures/we-want-terrence-mann-as-bob-in-the-dresden-files.html Online petition signatures en-us Sun, 19 Apr 2026 09:00 UTC GoPetition RSS Feed Generator Copyright 2026 GoPetition Ms Bobbi Wilson [Signature #104] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/14916686?utm_medium=rss Tue, 19 Mar 2013 12:28:39 UTC 14916686 Ms Anonymous [Signature #103] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/13607806?utm_medium=rss He was the soul of this show. I never seen Terry in anything before and now I'm his fan. His performance is one of the major reasons why despite many faults and badly made (and directed) episodes this show was still loved. I really want to see Hroberth's (not Bob-the-Skull's) story to be and of the past develop, and will gladly purchase the DVD.

Having Terrance Mann and Paul Blackthorne in either a resurrection of the tv series (which would be fantastic!) or in a series of films would certainly be a profitable endeavor. I wouldn't be surprised if it topped Harry Potter!

He pretends not to care about anyone else, but his essentially good nature sneaks through. Mann is UTTERLY BELIEVABLE as someone who has endured centuries of pain, isolation, & hopelessness. Filled with guilt, occasionally he seems to see a small glimmer of happiness. Terrance Mann is the ONLY Bob!

Quality has always meant a lot to me in choosing what I will watch. And Terrence Mann's performance (as well as Mr Paul Blackthorne's) was the backbone of my enjoyment of the television show. Should a movie version come out, my going to actually see (and later buy the DVD of) would greatly depend upon Mr Mann's casting in the role of "Bob".
