The pilot was outstanding, the regular episodes tend to drag.
That's how I feel about Reaper. (Although, maybe they're trying to pick up the pace a little. We'll see.)
I said I'm sorry. I've made mistakes, but fear was never one of them.

I'm with Scola. I thought last week's ep was one of the better eps. But the show has been a tad less thrilling than the pilot. I think the show is still better than Reaper, although Reaper has a MUCH better premise.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I find Chuck amusing enough, though the female agent (and the way she's treated) drives me a little nuts. I did really like the stuff they did with Chuck and his sister last week.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
So help me, if Reaper gets cancelled before there can be a Reaper/Supernatural crossover, I think I may cry.

I'm enjoying both Reaper and Chuck, but I think both shows are getting a little too caught up in the main character hiding their secret week after week.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
People have been saying to me for weeks to check out Chuck and Reaper, and I was all 'whatever'. I may have to do it now.

I prefer Chuck to Reaper, but both make me laugh. Zachary Levi is adorable and brings it every week. he's my new Adam Brody.

So - basically I was assuming some kind of race, with the stopwatch. Not neccesarily involving biscuits. But - yeah. Whatever.
Naw, Jack wouldn't want to rush. I think that it would be more like "how long can you hold out before I make your eyes roll back in your head?"

I heard they sent Zach on a talk show, and as part of that he went door-to-door telling people to watch the show to stop it being cancelled.

The lead guy on Chuck (is that Zachary Levi?) is such a Jim Halpert/John Krasinski type that I find it a little distracting. Like Jim accidentally opened one of Dwight's e-mails and got turned into a computer.
