Kevin Smith to Direct for the CW

in

Today I was looking around on the internet and I found this.

Kevin Smith is set to direct the CW pilot “Reaper,” a comedic drama about Sam Oliver, a 21-year-old slacker who learns that at birth his parents sold his soul to the devil and now has to pay the debt by becoming the Satan’s bounty hunter, retrieving souls escaped from hell. Michele Fazekas and Tara Butters wrote the project; that will film for two weeks in Vancouver, beginning March 12th.

The idea of this project is very exciting to me. I really do like Kevin's Smith's work, but as of yet, if you don't count the short lived Clerks cartoon, he has not really had the chance to try out his hand at Television. That and to date, Smith has never directed anything that he had not written. As for the project, how can you go wrong with a comedic Ghost Rider?
