This just in: Reaper has a return date!
A spokesperson for The CW confirms that the supernatural knee-slapper will join the net’s schedule on Tuesday, March 17 at 9 p.m./ET following 90210. I’m told the show’s entire 13-episode second season will air uninterrupted.
And don’t freak out, you Privileged few. Rina Mimoun’s freshman gem will have already completed its 18-episode run by the time Reaper takes over the time period.
Realite: Reality TV justice!
Worthy winners on ''Runway,'' ''ANTM''; just desserts on ''Top Chef'' and ''SYTYCD''; bonus Kris Allen!

lame deserves full season, way to kill a show
March! March? Who thought that was a good idea? I was hoping for January. I love this show, but I’m afraid…
March? St. Patrick’s Day? That isn’t really mid season, it is kind of mid mid season? I hope that everyone who is so anxious for the return will cause the CW to frantically order new episodes and we will have the funny experience of slightly different hairstyles and weight of our favorites in the later, lets save five additional episodes.
Hmmm … at least the eps are supposed to air uninterrupted, right? And they’re not “really” disrupting another show, since it will be done for its season .. so hopefully not ticking off fans of Privileged.. could be worse
forgot to mention .. March will be sweeps
Triple booked Tuesday! I believe I now have Scrubs, Fringe, and Reaper at 8PM CST on Tuesdays.
I feel your pain Brent, but it is a good problem to have!
What about Privileged getting a full season – the 18 episodes are nt a full season so have they definitely decided to stop Privileged at 18 or is the door still open to that???? I want more Will and Meagan…
Better late then never I suppose. Though I still would have preferred January. I miss my Reaper.
march??!!! i guess i should just be happy it’s coming back at all. smallville,supernatural, heroes,chuck,fringe and this show are just about all i watch on tv anymore. (and pro-football) i’m more concerned about the 90210 lead in. this just doesn’t seem like the kinda thing tweenybopper chicks would stay tuned in for. i hope this season the producers fin money in the budget to make satan appear without his Ray Wise outfit on. even if it’s just a flash. they had an opportunity in the writing last season (when he toppled an aisle of merchandise on sam) but they didn’td take it. MORE RISKS…please
No, Charstin–sweeps is in February. March is March Madness.
Yay! I love this show. What took it so long to come back? Oh right, its on a channel that prides itself on 90210 and Gossip Girl. Come on, even girls like to laugh! Bring back Sock and the devil!
Reaper & Privileged are both really good. the CW/WB rarely lack in quality shows, just ratings…
Just please no more Greg. What was up with that bad actor being on the show so much?
I am looking forward to this show returning. Hopefully, Sam Oliver (Bret Harrison) will show some more skin this season. When this show premiered, Sam was showing lots of skin.
Why CW? WHY!!!!! Can’t you put this show on Thursdays after the more compatible Smallville or Supernatural? surely they will be going into repeats by then. You want Reaper to go up against the IDOL enforced FRINGE and have 90210 as a lead in. It’s like you want it to be cancelled. Please give the devil the chance to shine on Thursdays!
Glad to hear that it IS coming back. I was thinking about this show the other day when I realized that I missed those funny Halloween ads featuring Satan and the song “The Most Wonderful Time of The Year” Can’t wait until this show is back on.
To Jake – Supernatural won’t be done with new episodes by March 17th – their season goes until May, so there wouldn’t be a slot for Reaper on Thursdays at 9
Keep Reaper on Tuesdays – I’m happy as long as Supernatural stays where it is!
I’m giving Reaper a chance and will see where the story goes but replacing my favorite show is never a good way to get me watching, so keep Reaper on Tuesday CW!!!!
Actually Charstain is correct; for this year March is the sweeps month due to the digital television conversion happening in the middle of February, so the local stations don’t want to have to use numbers that are sure to be screwed up by those who didn’t get their converter boxes or new sets.
Privileged Fans – Be THRILLED that you’re getting 18 episodes because that’s a lot more than it should be getting (based on this year’s ratings – not referred to quality).
Reaper Fans – Be THRILLED that you’re getting 13 episodes because that’s a lot more than it should be getting (based on last year’s ratings – not referred to quality).
referring not referred
I HATE TYPOS!!!
**happy squeal**
And then be canceled the next day.
Oh who am I kidding, it’s already dead.
I have a bad feeling this show won’t last much longer, especially the poor time slots it keeps giving. It’s honest to God the best show on CW, and something surprising that people might not realize is IT HAS MORE VIEWERS THAN GOSSIP GIRL! In fact, it has one of the highest viewer ratings on CW, they just don’t want anyone to know that! How about we boot OTH??
I am thrilled about this news but come on CW! why do you put this show on Thursdays? It would be a much better fit to have SN or Smallville be the lead-in then trashy teen shows to be the lead in!
hoooray!!! i normally agree with mike with show selections, but i couldn’t understand why he doesn’t like reaper. it’s one of the best shows on tv! i’m sad that PD is a goner but i’m excited to watch reaper again! i hope cw keeps this one. i’m even willing to give up OTH at this point to make room for reaper. OTH has pretty much ran its course.
I do have to say, though, putting off until March if I remember my Idol math correctly will be making it start as Idol goes to the one hour format on Tuesdays…so, all you Idol watchers who just randomly clicked on this because Bret Harrison is cute or whatever, flip to the CW during the recap of the performances and you will have a grand ole time laughing and just a little bit of the Lost/Heroes puzzlement (the main questions being, is Sam actually the Devil’s son or grandson, are Sam’s parents demons/angels, because something is up with them, is Sam actually an angel, and please don’t let Michael Ian Black be completely dead and in heaven, I would miss him and Sam needs someone he can be honest with and who gets it.)
Why isn’t this show getting more of a push? This was the one show that got much better after the writer’s strike as it merged in a clever ongoing plot with the gang’s efforts to hunt down Hell’s escapees.
To the person who says that Repear gets better ratings than GG & OTH. Nope, you’re wrong. Guess again.
