Reaper
Kevin Smith did a great job directing Reaper — a show he didn't write. He was able to fully focus his talent for direction — the humor was embedded in the show. I almost said “in the film” because this TV show feels like a film. Combine Buffy, Ghost Busters, X Files, all-the-slacker-movies, Angel, some Twin Peaks, and…how can you miss? Especially when the director loves comics.This is a good time for House to be displaced because it was getting pretty tired — although House itself has as its main character a depressed devil.
