Love the show, some great lines in this week's episode. I just hope they keep it going. It's sad it only gets 12 per season.

Actually, it's 13 this season (counting last night's), but this could still be a good thing -- paring down the side-stories and "filler" episodes, and keeping the storytelling tight, lean, and focused usually yields creative rewards with smaller batches of episodes.

I was a bit underwhelmed but I'll give it a chance to get rolling, there were some funny bits thou especially with Sock and his new sis.

It seems shows with less eps, i.e Damages, Dexter, Weeds, etc usually tend to have better writing, so I'm all for 13 eps seasons over 24...

The entire bit with Sock & his sister is creepy, wrong, and at the same time outrageously funny at times. Now we get to see how dating the demon goes.

Once that demon switched into human form...She was hot. ;)

I hope Ted is not gone for good. He may be a tool...but, he's funny. But, if he is gone. I wonder if they plan on making Andi the new manager. Especially, after she impressed the secret shopper. Finally, what happened to Ben's old girlfriend...The chick from Battlestar Galactica?

On a side bit of news. TVShowsOnDVD.com has posted that Reaper season 2 will be released on dvd a week after the last episode airs. And it will supposedly have some extras.

Did the Writer's Forget what happened to Sock when he fell for a demon, kissing one leads to losing one's life essance, and what happened to her? That was a bit more interesting a relationship than sock's "Sister" although it have had its moments.

Glad to have the show back. Sock rocks. Oddly the lead actor and actress are the weakest part of the show for me. Both are pretty bland. Ray Wise as the devil on the other hand rules.

I'm glad the show is back as well, Sock never ceases to utterly kill me and the stuff with his HOTTTT asian (damn I love em') sister is comedy gold lol.

I like how Sam's situation with the devil feels both so amusing and so desperately hopeless at the same time.

BTW, the make-up job they did on those winged demons was impressive! They belied both CGI and man-in-rubber-suit at times and they really seemed otherworldly. They also sort of reminded me of the Creeper in Jeepers Creepers.

Like Supernatural. I would love to see the "other side" aka Angels. I want to see ask them how someone else could sell "his" soul. Also, I want to see them go back and find out what those pages Sam's Dad ripped out.

We know from the end of season one that no one really sold his soul.. he is, in fact, the son of the devil. So, they sold his birth, which made him what he is.

We did -- once. Michael Ian Black's gay demon came back as an angel near the end of last season to pass on a message to Ken Marino's vengeful gay demon.

Are we sure about him being the devil's son? Remember something is up with his earth dad....Ripping out the pages of the contract...And we did see him survive the burial. (if I remember right ;) )

And yes. I remember seeing Michael Ian Black come visit. But, we need something more than a vision....And it has to be a hot chick. Just think of the fun of seeing Sock hitting on an angel.

The AA meeting scenes were some of the funniest sht I have seen, the whole idea was brilliant. "Go to a bar and order your favorite drink.", "Then walk away!", to the next meeting with only 1 member left and the Devil says "You cured!" LMFAO!!!! LOLOLOLOLOLOL.

Might be the funniest thing I have seen on the show.

And the best part was the prize for being cured, a bottle of Jack Daniels I think it was. :D

The whole bit of "you'll never know if you've beat it until you order that drink and walk away! That's power!"

Great stuff
