Valentine pilot review
Valentine
Type of Pilot: Romantic Comedy/Drama
Weaknesses: The story in the pilot is a bit corny: girl overlooks nice-guy best-friend in favour of the jackass Alpha Male. In the real world, of course, the Alpha Male jackass always wins, so on TV (and in the movies) the nice-guy best-friend wins instead and they live happily every after (eating ice cream in front of the tv, in this instance).
Other Info: I was just thinking how compatible this would be with Reaper, then I read that cr...

Reaper - The Devil & Sam Oliver
Original at tvduchess (WordPress)
• Tue, Sep 8
By tvduchess The match of wits begins between The Devil & Sam Oliver, and wouldn’t you know it, it ends in a draw. Sam’s only chance at salvation, and he doesn’t win. Shame, shame. Turns out that Heaven has big plans for Sam Oliver, and that is why they sent Steve to wound the poor Reaper. What are those p...

Original at sepinwall (Blogspot)
• Wed, May 27
By asepinwall@starledger.com (Alan Sepinwall) If "Reaper" somehow comes back, even in a cheaper form with a smaller cast and a new creative team, I imagine I'll still watch for a while, if only for Ray Wise and Rick Gonzalez. But the series could have been so much better than it was. Maybe if it had been, its future wouldn't be so uncertain rig...

By asepinwall@starledger.com (Alan Sepinwall) 3.

Ben + demon girlfriend = funny. That is all.

The Return of 'Reaper'
Original at MSN TV

Reaper" comes back to the CW Tuesday, and it's somewhat a bittersweet return as far as I can tell. Bitter because the show was one of a few that the CW didn't auto-renew, and because it's going up agains "American Idol." Which means unless Ray Wise really is the Devil, chances for a third seaso...

So, there you have it. A season finale that set up more questions and answered none of the ones we had going in.
