New CW Stars on the Breakout List
The Chicago Sun-Times has come up with its list of the top 10 new characters destined to break big in the 2007 TV season, and we've got two CW stars on the list.
Tyler Labine of Reaper comes in at number seven: "Labine has knocked around in good roles on other TV shows, as happy-go-lucky and smart men on "Invasion" and "Boston Legal"… The thing about Labine is he seems at first to be just a goof, but he can't hide the smarts in his head. His clownish dork-by-choice is content to live a fun life of adventure, wrapping tape around his hands to amuse himself."
Life is Wild's Leah Pipes hit the list at number nine: "The show itself avoids the usual TV slutification and dumbing down of kids, [a]nd Pipes provides the narration with a sober lightheartedness."
Do we agree with their assessments? Well, you're about to find out. We've seen all four of the new CW premieres (Gossip Girl, Reaper, Aliens in America, and Life Is Wild), and each Monday, we'll share our take. Don't worry, we won't reveal anything spoilery! But we will give you a little preview of what we loved, hated, and what surprised us. Coming up later today: a Reaper preview.
