Ep. 13: REAPER: many many pairs of 'socks' fueled the fan campaign to save The CW's REAPER

SUPPORT: https://patreon.com/joshuacliston

In this episode we take a quick look at the fan campaign that helped to get The CW's REAPER a 13 Episode Final Season.

How did REAPER find itself On The Bubble? 

  • The show opened to great critical support, but low audience numbers.

  • Reaper, like many other new shows, was interrupted by the 2007-2008 Writers Guild of American strike.

  • The show never regained what little momentum it did have prior to the strike.

  • Show star Tyler Labine called for fan support to save Reaper.

  • The fan campaign began to save the show.
