This doesn't pretend to be a deep show, but it's a pleasant diversion with a good cast, and really good (read: expensive) production values.
-
After a nine-month hiatus, one of the best new shows of last season returns from the undead with a bit more of the deviled edge that made it so great when it first emerged from the crypt in the fall of 2007.
-
Creatively, the show seems to be in pretty decent shape.
-
Reaper has a clear potential to be simply cartoonish, like a bad adaptation of an action comic. But it surprises you, sprinkling in enough human nuance to keep several decent character dramas percolating.
-
Back for its second season, Reaper has one thing left going for it: Ray Wise as the dapper Devil.
-
Reaper takes several steps back--and a few steps sideways--suggesting a drunken all-nighter may be in order, if it hasn't happened already.
-
It’s hard to invest much in Sam when his behavior is contradictory or gullible and when he seems downtrodden much of the time.
-
Set against Reaper‘s slackers and the largely limited actors who portray them, Wise will having you rooting for the Devil.
