It was a great show about a cop who'd cold-bloodedly killed the guy who raped and killed his wife. So when he died, he went to Hell. While he was in Hell, a bunch of demons escaped, and the Devil wanted those demons back more than he wanted the main character (whose name escapes me for the moment). So the Devil and the main character made a deal. The guy would hunt down all those demons, and when they were all returned, he'd be free. He had full-body tattoos, each one indicating one of the demons.
The best part of it was the guy who played the Devil. He's the guy who plays Lionel Luthor on Smallville. His Devil character was always saying, "The Devil is in the details." He believed that the best way to be the Devil was to play little annoying pranks. For instance, he showed up with the main character in a diner, and he sat there replacing all of the sugar in the sugar shakers with salt. Another time, he met the main character in a hotel room, and he tore out the last page of a mystery novel. They were walking past some homeless guys, and the Devil reached down and tied the guy's shoelaces together.

The Devil always made me grin.
