I love this show. Just the right mix of comedy and drama to keep me interested. Just got done with the first season; Ray Wise is the most amazing Satan ever. It's like he's almost lovable, and then he'll do something really evil to remind you that he's the fucking Devil.

Took a couple episodes to "get going" as it were, but after that I was hooked. It's kind of in the vein of Supernatural, but not so serious or dark.

Anyone else watch this? I did a forum search for it and it turned up nothing so apologies if there's already a topic on it.

I heartily recommend it, if you're into this sort of thing.

If you're unfamiliar, here's a trailer for the first season.

Also, it does that thing that I hate in trailers where it basically sums up the entire plotline and major events of the first episode, so in many ways you don't even have to watch the pilot if you've seen this. :shifty:

All trailers ever would be better without this particular voice-over guy. He makes it sound way goofier than it actually is. ANYWAY GIVE IT A SHOT.

Sock is incredible. He reminds me so much of one of my friends it's scary.

And Ben becomes an excellent character later in the first season. First few episodes he's kind of token (lol) but the whole story with that chick from England (don't want to ruin it for people who haven't seen it) is hilarious, and he just generally brings neurotic humour to the table later on.

Also I would marry Andy in a heartbeat.

YES! Andy is hot. She looks like a girl that is on my degree, who funnily enough I also have a thing for.

Didn't they only do one season?

No, they've been renewed for a second season. It seems like they were preparing to get cancelled, but they pulled through. Can't wait for it, really.

I watched this when it was shown here in the UK the first time round but I lost interest about halfway through the season. However, I've picked it up again recently. In fact there's an epsiode on in just over an hour that I'll be watching.

Yeah, but it clashes with malcolm in the Middle. Decisions decisions.

I saw a few episodes here and there.

Is it still running on CW?

I haven't heard of this until now. I'll have to check it out. Fuck, just did some research and apparently Kevin Smith directed the pilot and served as creative consultant for the series. Now I've really got to check this out.

And, yes, Missy Peregrym is hot.
