Reaper (2007-09)





Reaper had me hooked at the pilot episode, and I really loved the first season.  The second season meandered a bit, but was still a fun watch.   Shot in Vancouver, I visited some locations while I was visiting.   I will add more locations next time I am up there.

First up, the "Work Bench" used a Canadian Tire store for the pilot episode.   In future episodes, they used the exterior of the studio as the location.

The Brickhouse bar was used for establishing exteriors and some interiors in the pilot episode...

The Cleveland Dam provided the setting for one of the early episodes....

The University of British Columbia stood in for a college campus.  This same area was used in When A Stranger Calls Back....

The Vancouver art museum as the library...

Sock's house makes a very brief appearance...

They used a different location for Sam's house in the pilot, but subsequent episodes used the house below...

I'll be adding more Reaper locations during my next Vancouver visit!

Series creator, Kevin Smith....

And Tyler Labine as Sock...

  2. Fantastic pictures! Just started re-watching it after nearly 10 years and was wondering where the work bench would be.
