Premiered last night and I had low expectations but I really enjoyed it. Original concept, good writing, good actors, and overall entertaining show.

Basic premise which sounds weird but works, guy turns 21 to find out that when he was born his parents sold his soul to the devil who gets him when he turns 21. The devil makes him be a bounty hunter collecting souls that escaped hell. He does this with his friends and so far so good.

They will rerun the pilot again on the CW at 9pm EST on Thursday.

IF I remember right, Kevin Smith only worked on the premiere episode, after that he has no involvement.

Really, didn't know that. You could tell he had his hands all over it. See how it goes.

Yeah, he talked about it on one of his podcasts, and said that he doesn't like directing stuff he didn't write, and probably wouldn't do it again. I'm sure he will end up doing it again at some point.

I meant to DVR this show, thanks for the heads up. I'll grab the re-run.

As I understood it he was going to do some co-writing on that episode along with Kring and the rest of their normal staff.

Still hooked after the 2nd show. Really enjoying this more than I expected. Some great lines in it this week.
