    I did think it was weird that they seemed to be taking the idea that Sam was the Devil's son as fact without really getting into any period of questioning whether it was true or not. I'm assuming it's a bit of trying to make the first episode back as straightfoward as possible.
    But there were a few other bits that seemed slightly odd. They never brought up the possibility of going to Sam's house. Where is not quite dead dad hanging out? They jump from a scene of Sam giving over the vessel and getting knocked out (which seemed a bit TOO stupid of a thing to do even for people known to be stupid) to a hey good job this week scene. I assume that the remaining soul did not in fact take the vessel then.

    Also to go along with this weeks pseudo incestuous theme. If that other girl Sam was dating is one of the Devil's progeny and Sam is too...

    I'm pretty sure those plants withered because of Sam, not her.

    I'm enjoying the way that despite one of his two bosses being Satan, the other guy is still a worse person to work for

    Hey, people who like Reaper:

    You should probably start watching Better Off Ted, on ABC. Quirky little nerdy sitcom from one of the co-creators of Andy Richter Controls the Universe, and has Portia de Rossi. It is delightful, all around. Has the official Pooro Seal of Approval

    Yeah, I dug it.

    And the black scientist was in the very first episode of Always Sunny - even more reason to love it.

    Better Off Ted had some neat stuff. It's not great, but hopefully it will get better with time.

    Portia de Rossi's delivery is great, though.

    Sam needs some sort of narrowly defined or tremendously awkward to actually use power

    they need a tiny edge but the idea that he just has nascent, random, devil powers just gives them too much room for ass-pull endings.

    I'd be fine if he just kept the telekinesis, but only when his life is threatened worse than usual.

    I think it would be funny if he could like, hulk out one arm or something. Like hellboy's stone arm? But sam wouldn't be able to lift it, just crudely parry and crush things at ground level in his rocky fist.

    Morgan was an asshat, and I hope he doesn't stay on for much longer.
    On the plus side, next week's preview looks gut-busting.

    This show was better when it was called Brimstone (too bad that only lasted 13 episodes), and had John Glover as the devil.

    I missed several episodes in my original attempt to watch this show when it first came on and that almost always ends in me dropping it. I'll have to netflix the dvds or something.

    Hmmm..

    Last episode Sam took money from Morgan to pretend like he captured a soul. The soul was in hell for lusting over a woman before he died. He convinced the group to let him stay out until he lost his virginity. The woman he lusted over was older and he hooked up with her. Sam digs up his grave and uses the vessel to capture his soul but it came back from the DMV as bad. The devil has some super badass demon hunting thing that he can't control and it goes after the soul. It arrives as the dudes cherry is popped and doesn't recognize him because two souls became one...blah blah blah.

    I think Ben went flying with his demon girlfriend.

    Andi broke up with Sam the episode before that and Sock banged his step sister.
