I'm not happy to see any of my favorite shows end for the season, but tonight's Reaper finale is particularly poignant, as the show was not picked up by the CW for another season and several of the show's people have already signed on for new things (including Tyler Labine and the show's creators Michele Fazekas and Tara Butters). All is not totally lost, though, as there's talk of possibly Read more

Basically I just want an excuse to post the funny promo for tonight's episode of Reaper because it makes me laugh every darn time I watch it. Though it's a little silly at times, the writing on this show consistently cracks me up. Like in last week's episode when we learned Sock's (Tyler Labine) "signature" pick-up line: "Excuse me, I think you're standing on my penis." I mean . . . come Read more

It feels like it's been an eternity in hell since we last got to hang out with the Devil, Sam, Sock, Andi and Ben. Have you missed them as much as I have? Last we heard on Reaper, Tony tried to trap Sam — only to bury alive Sam's dad instead. In tonight's season two premiere, Sam, Ben and Sock return from a long road trip to find themselves fired from the Work Bench and pretty much homeless. Read more

Among the awesome things about TV this Winter is the return of Reaper, the quirky CW buddy comedy about a boy and the devil who rules him. Yup, I love this silly show, and finally, today brings a quick glimpse of the second season. It's just a little teaser, but I'm at the point where any glimpse of Sock making gross bodily noises or Sam attempting to take out some demon with a frying pan is Read more

Well, the silver lining around this season finale cloud is that Reaper is definitely getting another season on the CW! This is excellent news, and maybe the summer will provide folks with some time to catch up on the first season of this bizarrely funny, fantastical show. It feels like just yesterday I was super skeptical about the premise of this show (a bounty hunter for the devil? He uses a Read more

Right on the eve of the CW's upfronts, when we'll learn whether or not Reaper (one of my favorite new shows of the '07-'08 TV season) is getting a second season, Bret Harrison took a few minutes to chat with me about Reaper's need for more female viewers, what his first thoughts were reading the script and what we can expect from the season finale, airing Tuesday May 20. He was totally sweet and Read more

There have been peanuts for Jericho, Mars bars for Veronica Mars, and footballs for Friday Night Lights. Now, Reaper is joining the ranks of floundering shows with an anxious fanbase ready to send hundreds of the same kind of item in the mail to studio executives in an effort to prove how much the show means to them. This time, it's socks, a reference to the hilarious character of Sock on the Read more

One night after Gossip Girl steamed up our TV sets, a very different CW show also returns to the air. Reaper is back — and if trying to figure out when the show was airing has seemed like time slot roulette for the past couple of months, then the best news is that it's right home where it started: Tuesdays at 9 p.m. The show still has five new episodes left, and tonight's sounds like a good Read more

This movie didn't have a whole lot going for it in the first place, but the timing of it all just kind of forces us to call Deal a "poor man's 21," what with having a ridiculously similar storyline and everything. Bret Harrison — who is utterly adorable on Reaper — plays a smart college kid with a skill for winning at poker, though he gets even better under the tutelage of grizzled Read more
