Into the Scripted: "Reaper," "Bones," "House"

April 30, 2008

Nice to see Lucy Davis again. Even better to see that she was still around at the end of the episode.
Trying to catch up on things I've missed. Am sampling the "Costas Now" town meeting, including the Bissinger rant/debate.(Good gosh, Braylon Edwards, what did you think you had walked into?) But here I'm going [...]

New Season: "Reaper," My Favorite New Show

September 25, 2007

Premieres tonight
