CW Press Release, Season 2 Reaper: For the first 20 years of his life, Sam Oliver (Bret Harrison, “The Loop,” “Grounded for Life”) skated by on low effort and even lower expectations. He bypassed college, took a dead-end job at the local Work Bench home improvement store, and wasted endless hours playing video games and goofing off with his buddies. But on his 21st birthday, his parents finally revealed the ungodly reason they’d let him slide all these years: they sold his soul to the Devil before he was born. His soul now claimed by Satan himself (Ray Wise, “Twin Peaks,” “24”), Sam has no choice but to work for the Devil as a bounty hunter, capturing fugitive souls who’ve escaped from Hell. But Sam’s never been particularly good at anything (that didn’t involve napping). So he enlists his friends and co-workers, Bert “Sock” Wysocki (Tyler Labine, “Invasion,” “Boston Legal”) and Ben Gonzalez (“Coach Carter,” “In the Valley of Elah”), to help track down the escaped souls now wreaking havoc on Earth. Armed with minimal investigative skills and an ever-changing series of vessels – ranging from a Dirt Devil mini-vacuum to a Mongolian war spear – Sam and the guys embark on their hilarious adventures through a previously unnoticed world of supernatural intrigue that exists right below the surface of their daily lives. Season two finds Sam wrestling with the recent discovery that he is the son of the Devil. But Sam quickly learns that getting groomed to take over the “family business” comes with a whole new litany of headaches. The demon rebellion he once collaborated with is now out to kill him – a conflict further complicated when Ben starts dating the demon assassin (Jenny Wade, “Feast,” “No Reservations”) tasked with the job. Sam also finds he’s not the Devil’s only son and that one in particular (Armie Hammer, “Billy,” “Veronica Mars”) is Hell-bent on taking Sam’s place at the Devil’s side. Plus, Sam must decide whether to reveal any of this news to his girlfriend Andi (Missy Perergrym, “Heroes”), who’s already wary of his extracurricular activities for Hell. But a chance encounter with an elusive soul (Sean Patrick Thomas, “Save the Last Dance,” “A Raisin in the Sun”) who claims to have gotten out of his own deal with the Devil, offers Sam a glimmer of hope that he may not be stuck working for the Devil forever. Getting him to reveal exactly how he did it, however, will be easier said than done. Sam also has to deal with his "father" Mr. Oliver who is a zombie living inside a freezer inside Sock's garage. “Reaper” is from ABC Studios with executive producers Michele Fazekas (“Ed,” “Law & Order, Special Victims Unit”), Tara Butters (“Ed,” “Law & Order, Special Victims Unit”), Mark Gordon (“Grey’s Anatomy,” Criminal Minds”), Deborah Spera (“Criminal Minds”) and Tom Spezialy (“Desperate Housewives”).
