Reaper: Comedic drama about a 21-year-old slacker who becomes the devil's bounty hunter, retrieving souls escaped from hell
Please tell me they'll be using Blue Oyster Cult for the theme song. Please.
All right, no one's killing folk today, on account of our very tight schedule.

Boxed Set, Vol. III: "That Can't Be Good..."
A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Isn't this basically Brimstone?
Peter Horton played a world-weary cop beaten down to near-apathy by his traumas rather than a slacker. Who became the Devil's bounty hunter, retrieving souls escaped from hell. Whole 'nother vibe, since he used to do stuff.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Right, but the same basic conceit.
Reaper is basically Brimstone meets Dead Like Me.

Perhaps I should have added a t /sarcasm note to the end of my post?

There is also a series being made from Tanya Huff's "Blood" books. The pilot airs on March 11 on Lifetime(Yeah, I know) Weird thing is that it's a Canadian production, but it's airing first in the States.
I'd rather watch that than Twilight. I love Tany Huff and her "Blood" books. I've been waiting for her to write more of them, but I think she feels they're played out. Sigh. I may have to pick up the reissues to read again.

I thought that actor who plays Zach in Heroes was going to be John Connor in Sarah Connor Chronicles?
Nevermind. Thomas Dekker *is* the actor who plays Zach. Hmmm. If the show gets picked up, the actor might have too much time for Heroes.

Hahaha, might *not* have too much time, is what I meant. Clearly I need more coffee.

Well, she's still writing the related series, with is set in Vancouver on the set of a 2nd-rate vampire detective show. Henry's still in it, but wassername (Vicki?) hasn't made any appearances.
Which, you know, has too many levels of meta in it for me.

I tried those. It tasted like the diet syrups they use in coffee drinks. Bleah. Just didn't do anything for me.
