Having finally caught up with the three post-strike episodes of Reaper (and just in time for the actual new episodes to start), I must say five things:
1) I love it. Maybe it is not the greatest show in the world, maybe it does not always achieve the levels of madcap hilarity one would like, but I love it nonetheless. It is like a tiny, adorable puppy who runs into things a lot--on one hand, you're worried it might hurt itself and/or your furniture; on the other hand, it is so very adorable.
2) A significant portion of the above may be due to Sam, who, in fact, falls under the exact same qualifications. He even looks like a puppy. Well, maybe some kind of puppy-weasel hybrid. Wouldn't that be cute? I think that would be cute.
3) It has gay demons. Stylish, awesome, gay demons who cook gourmet mac & cheese, offer impeccable fashion tips, and power-sand their horns off. Only in a Kevin Smith production, guys.
4) I really, really like watching cute guys get in mortal peril. Sam, honey, you can get strangled by an invisible monster any time. Or jumped by a cannibal monster. Or cornered by an acid monster. Or in a car accident--is it weird that I think he's even cuter when he's bleeding? It's weird.
5) I...still kind of slash Devil/Sam. I KNOW THIS MAKES ME A HORRIBLE PERSON. I CAN'T HELP IT. The weird fatherliness! The occasional cheerful/creepy reminders of just who Sam's dealing with! The now-canonical notion that the Devil is taking just a bit more interest than is typical! Publicity shots like my icon! I'M SORRY. *hangs head*
