Reaper and the Current Geek Phenomenon

Guardian (U.K.) writer, Stephen Armstrong, takes a look at the new crop of American shows hitting the UK’s somewhat less sunny shores, the Pacific Northwest notwithstanding.

Reaper: Sam Oliver Rising

The other night’s episode of Reaper, Acid Queen, hit some very high notes for the CW’s hit show. The new repertoire for our boys in pursuit of the Devil’s missing children may be the thing to help this show see a sophomore season, and not just a sophomoric one.
First, Steve and Tony, played by Michael […]

What will Steve […]

Reaper Ratings: “What About Blob” Repeat Has More Viewers Than “Beauty and the Geek”

According to Nielsen, last night’s Reaper repeat, What About Blob had 1.67 million viewers, more than Beauty and the Geek’s 1.62 million viewers. Reaper had a smaller share, in its timeslot, but that’s because it’s up against some tough competition –Dancing with the Stars and Big Brother. So, that’s a heckuva big accomplishment for a […]
