Sorry to say, I'm adding this after the show has been canceled.
There are those who have given the show a less than stellar rating, based on its comparison to its Aussie counterpart; that is unfair.
Barely out of the gate, having just developed the characters & story lines that make us love them, FOX pulled the plug.
RAKE is smart, intelligent & funny. Greg Kinnear's Keegan Deane is the guy you hate to love. Loved John Ortiz' great character development of Ben Leon, coming out of the shadows after the death of his father. With a combination of wit & reality reminiscent of Ally McBeal & Boston Legal, RAKE is the best show to come along in years.
FOX is doing itself a disservice by not giving the show its full support, and time to build its audience. With a commitment from cast & crew, some of the finest in the industry, and with a growing audience, FOX should have extended the same commitment to the show and to its viewers.
I really encourage FOX to bring back RAKE, give it the support it deserves, and ride the wave of success this show will attain!
