TV Tonight: The Reaper Finale
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 continuing the show on ABC. Anyway, I have absolutely loved this season — perhaps even more than the first — as we've gotten to know Sam's half-brother Morgan (the ever-dashing/sleazy Armie Hammer) and Ben's demon girlfriend Nina (Jenny Wade).

- Who could play a big-screen Bernie Madoff? Maybe Dustin Hoffman or Tom Wilkinson?
On the Bubble? Where TV Shows Stand Now
By this time next month, the Fall TV schedule will be set. Starting with NBC in a couple of weeks, each network will piece together its programming slate, including which current series will return and which new pilots will get a shot at success. That means it's crunch time for shows that are "on the bubble," with equally good chances they'll get renewed or canceled.
TV Tonight: The Romantic Side of Reaper
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."
Interview With a Devil (or, You Know, Ray Wise)
Speak of the Devil! No, seriously. Ray Wise brilliantly plays the Devil on the out-of-this-world CW comedy Reaper and I recently got to chat with him one-on-one which, you might imagine, was a little bit intimidating at first.
TV Tonight: Reaper's Back!
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.
Reaper's Back Early, 90210 Moves Later, and More From the CW
The CW revised its midseason schedule just a bit today, bringing Reaper back early (yay!) while putting it directly in the path of American Idol (boo!). Meanwhile, Privileged has a finale date. The big stuff:
- Reaper will be back a couple of weeks earlier than originally planned, with a new premiere date of March 3.
First Look: Reaper Season Two
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 good enough for me.
Castle, Reaper, and Other Shows Coming to a TV Near You
CBS and ABC both released their midseason schedules this week, and the CW dribbled out a few little teases, giving us an almost complete picture of what we'll be watching on TV in 2009. It's good news for fans of Reaper and Nathan Fillion, and not such good news for those who love Pushing Daisies or Ashton Kutcher reality shows.
Some of the highlights:
- Castle, Cupid, and The Unusuals all made ABC's midseason schedule.
What to Netflix: New DVD Tuesday
All of the new DVD releases hit stores (and Netflix) on Tuesdays. So each week in What to Netflix: New DVD Tuesday, I sort through the best of the batch and tell you what to add to your queue.
Get Smart
Get Smart is the big pick of the week this week, and as far as rentals go, this would be an excellent choice.
