When he was going through his teen years, Sam often wondered why his parents never seemed to mind his slacking off, although they always pressured his kid brother Keith to excel. When he turns 21, however, Sam makes an ungodly discovery: His parents sold his soul to the devil before he was born. When Satan pops in to explain that Sam is going to serve as his bounty hunter, tracking down escaped evil souls and returning them to hell, Sam's first reaction is to tell Satan to go to, well, home, but it quickly dawns on him that breaking a deal with the devil is likely to have more serious consequences than getting grounded. Before you can say, Is it just me, or is it hot in here?, Sam embarks on his dangerous and often terrifying new gig as the Reaper, assisted by fellow slackers Ben and Sock, as well as Andi, Sam's girlfriend.

3/5
The cast all look like they're going through the motions, uninspired by a lackluster script. Even the show-stealing Ray Wise, robbed of a Supporting Actor Emmy nod last year, looks a little bored Go to Full Review

The series could have been so much better than it was. Maybe if it had been, its future wouldn't be so uncertain right now. Go to Full Review

[The finale] was roughly as solid as the last few weeks of the show have been, which is good, but I wanted more. Go to Full Review

3.5/5
It starts strong enough, making us glad to see the gang back in action, but then it feels rather like it's coasting along and never really shifts into overdrive. Go to Full Review
