Reaper

Nobody appears to have mentioned this in the entertainment board as yet.

It's about a loserish guy who on his 21st birthday, his parents tell him that they sold his soul to the devil so his father could get over an illness. His job is to be a bounty hunter for souls escaped from hell. He has to recapture these souls (usually wearing a ludicrous outfit) and return them to hell.

I've watched the first two episodes of this and I'm genuinely enjoying it. Given the Pilot was directed by Kevin Smith (of Clerks/Mallrats/Dogma etc. fame) there are lots of actual lols to be had. It's quite similar to the film Idle Hands in its style.

I'd recommend keeping an eye on this. Up to episode 3 I believe. Worth a watch.

I thought I'd mentioned this somewhere.

Tis rather fun anyway, I'm enjoying it.

Sounds a bit like Spawn.

That was my first thought, I used to love that show.

However, it's a lot more silly/fun than that, which i'm, not convinced is a good (or bad) thing. yet.

Brimstone was good, but yet again the cunts at fox decided they had better things to make.

Fox really do seem to fail. They canned firefly and andromedia (Granted, season 5 was ropy, but I blaim Fox for pushing the original producer out) pluss other jusy stuff, but they fund complete junk
