I have a buddy that thinks “Reaper” is the best thing going on TV. While I’m not sure if I’d go that far, I have to admit “Reaper” is good stuff. On his 21st birthday, Sam Oliver (Brett Harrison), a professional slacker, discovers that his parents made a deal with the devil (Ray Wise) which condemns Sam to working for the devil to capture and return escaped souls. The show is genuinely entertaining and funny. To keep things interesting, there are surprising revelations towards the end of the series. “Reaper” is loads of devilish fun. –dark abyss
