‘Reaper’ Second-Season Renewal Means More Devil Time

There’s excellent news breaking today, Reaper fans! The CW has renewed the series for a second season, albeit as a midseason replacement with just 13 episodes.

A 22-episode full season would have been much more to my preference, of course. But the way things have been going following the writers’ strike, I’m definitely not complaining, especially since the word is that The CW will probably pair the show with Supernatural after Smallville completes its run. That’s a commendable programming move that could help both shows, each underappreciated by mainstream viewers, acquire/retain fans.

Congratulations to the fabulous cast and crew of Reaper!
