wednesday_whimsyI watched the first two episodes of Reaper (well the second one was on while I tidied up) and... no. I don't like it. It's not for me. Maybe I'm just used to things being really well made, what with Supernatural and Heroes and Pushing Daisies, but this felt so cheap and bad it actually took effort to watch.
Journeyman, on the other hand, is actually very interesting. I love time-travel. I love the implications of it and what you can do with it. Burying the ring and the paper to prove to his wife he wasn't crazy or on drugs was a simple and effective thing to do and it meant that the "disappearing husband" storyline won't go on and on which is what I thought might happen. Usually people don't get that smart in tv shows for months. Episodes 2 and 3 are downloading now.

(and perhaps that sums up American TV watching...ha!!)
