Is it the pilot? If so, already seen it. It was okay, but it would be a lot better if it was on like HBO, and not held to the basic cable channel cleanlyness standards.

I got problems with that - House, The Unit, and only 2 tuners in my DVR. As it is I had to push Eureka back to its second showing tonight.
Reaper looks good - but something had to give. I might need to catch it in "sindication".

Finished watching it. It's very enjoyable but there is an issue with "continuity" which actually makes it funnier if you notice it. It's a result of the changing of the lead female role after the original pilot was filmed...
It certainly has potential cause it has some really great moments.

Not sure how I feel about this show yet.
Nothing really grabbed me in the pilot, but I stick around for at least a few more episodes.
One thing that freaking bugs me about several tv shows and movies was in this pilot though.
I find female characters who gets all pissy and hurt about nothing at all really unbelievable.

I founnd this show enjoyable and entertaining but not as grabbing as Pushing Daisies or Burn Notice (missed the last few episodes *sniff*). I think it's a good show though.

After watching NBC's sleep inducing lineup last night, I was pleasantly surprised by how good Reaper was. I'm definitely going to watch this show every week.

I am working upstairs (well technically currently procrastinating), and my wife is downstairs getting teary eyed at ads.

maybe unbelievable was the wrong word.
more irritating and "i don't understand what her problem is"
but maybe i'm not like most girls?
surely i'm not the only one...

I almost liked it.
I will stick it out for a few episodes, to see if it comes together.
It felt a little clunky. the show didn't just flow the way it needed to. the "fight" scenes were short and kind of (yes again) Clunky. I hope it starts to flow. There is Nothing on TV on Tuesday, and I'm hoping this will work.

I laughed my ass off when I watched it. After having seen the original pilot a few weeks back, I was at first really annoyed that they recast the lead female (who is not as cute as the original girl). And then I just ended up laughing at the fact that in the newly re-shot scenes Sam has some lame ass excuse (but ridiculously goofy looking) for a mustache and highlighted hair.

Missy is beautiful. Might be the only reason for me to watch it. Looks like Nikki Reed was cast first. She's very cute too. I'll check and see if I can find both pilots...
Can't find any info why the change in cast though.

My thoughts exactly. Has some potential, but it's not like I'm super excited to see how it turns out.
