Wait, if Missy Peregrym will be starring as the female lead in the CW’s new show “Reaper”, what does that mean for her Candice Wilmer character on Heroes? It doesn’t look too good for our favorite bitchy hero! “Reaper” is about a 21-year-old slacker (played by Bret Harrison) who becomes a bounty hunter for the [...]

Reaper.. thats the show thats taking Veronica Mars time slot... hmmm it looks like an interesting show.. I saw a preview while watching One Tree Hill last week... well my boyfriend said he wants to see the pilot.. so when it airs in the fall, I'll be watching it with him.. hmm maybe i'll start liking it.. I like the plot. plus Bret isnt too bad looking. Plus I want to see how Missy portrays her character. I think it will turn out good. We'll see in a few months.

Hopefully it'll fail so she come come back to Heroes!

Reaper looks cool. But I like Nikki Reed, so I'm a little pissed that they replaced her. Reaper looks like the best pilot The CW has to offer next season, so I doubt it'll fail.

The good thing about these lesser network shows it that they have room to breathe. Unless a show completely tanks (like the recent Hidden Palms) the CW should give them a chance to flourish.

God, Hidden Palms was so terrible...the only thing that made it watchable were the hot chicks....

Why was it bad? I mean, I heard it was cliched, but what else?

It was an even more dramatic version of The OC, which was already pretty darn dramatic itself. And the characters just weren't defined well enough in the beginning of the show. For example, there's this one nerdy chick who seemed like a normal, if not excessively shy, teenage girl in the first episode. Then as the show went on, she started stealing from people's bags and breaking into this one guy's house because she was playing detective or something.

The whole concept of the show reeked of primetime soap opera, which as we all know, is something that only The OC has ever really pulled off.

I have absolutely no idea about any of them programs. I'e heard of the OC, thats it.
