Title: Rake Post by: Shannow on January 24, 2014, 06:15:37 AM Anyone watch this last night? I wanted to enjoy it but as one review put it, its a show scared of it's own anti-hero.

We should all practice saying insultingly funny things to people as elevator doors are closing. I think some of you could turn that into an art form.

I think that's mostly because its on network t.v.

Title: Re: Rake Post by: Signe on February 11, 2014, 07:47:27 AM I saw the 2010 episodes last time I was in London (I think it was 2010) and I loved it but I couldn't get the next two years. I just found that I can get them now since the 2014 episodes have started or are starting. Maybe. It seems like nearly everything somewhat good is a remake of something British, Aussie or Canadian. Canada is really making some good stuff lately. I like the main character in the US series, although I think he's better off without all the wives. I've seen the Australian guy in a few other things but he was best in Rake... he has an awesome angry face. He's a bit edgier than the American, too. Sorry for not dropping names but I can't remember them off hand.
