Reaper

Does anyone know when this is due to start on E4? It looks really interesting and I saw it advertised a while back but have not seen anything of it since...

Re: Reaper

I would be interested in this too. Especially if C4 HD broadcast it too.

Re: Reaper

Ah excellent! The premise of this is brilliant, I just hope it does it well...

Re: Reaper

its an okay comedy-drama series, nothing special in my view having watched all episodes to date (about 11 or 12 up to the US writers strike)

out of all the okay/good new US series this 07/08 season, I'd put it at the bottom (that still makes it better than Bionic Woman and Flash Gordon )

Re: Reaper

It's odd. It has all the elements of Chuck but just doesn't hang together as it should. It's certainly watchable and worth the time but it isn't great.

I think the lead lacks charisma overall.

Re: Reaper

Ive watched the first episode and found it pretty engrossing,

Good premise to the story and reasonably funny, definitely worth watching

Well, Ep 11 isn't due to air until March and I doubt it's that popular that it'll be leaked early.

But if you look around there isn't even an episode 11 listed anywhere. I think the poster means they've seen up to and including episode 10 (?)
