Cane

Cane is a great show, the storyline is interesting the acting is great the soundtrack is always ON KEY...and the characters reactions issues and slow decay or uprise is really true to life. My only little tidbit with the show would have to be its one of those series you really have to watch from episode one to really appreciate to just jump on the band wagon a few episodes in takes away from a lot of the drama. Although a lot of shows have e this same problem. LONG STORY short brush up on the episodes you've missed and start watching this show ASAP...I'm telling you there's some really good series out there these days; Heroes, Prison Break, 24, House the primetime television entourage is really doing it up with some quality shows and cane is no acception.

I went into this show with high expectations and trust me this show did not disappoint.

True, a lot like Dallas and Dynasty, but with Latinos and Sugar.

I just love the fact that there are a lot of minorities in this show, which is fantastic.

Looking forward to seeing the next episodes.

It's funny what money can do to people - even family members.

Sit down on Tuesday nights with the family and watch this thrilling drama - you will not be disappointed.

Enjoy

I watched all of Cane last night. Decent show, as for if I'm hooked - time will tell. Cane is kind of like what I expected: a Dallas like TV show... Cubans instead of Texians, Florida instead of Texas and Sugar instead of Oil. I kind of chuckled at some of the "Spanish speaking" moments - maybe I can learn Spanish watching this show lol. I think this show can appeal to a lot people regardless of background (white, black, Hispanic), hence you don't have to be Hispanic to enjoy this show. I think it does a good honor to the Hispanic culture and hard working freedom loving Cubans who live here in the United States after a long struggle to gain entry into this nation. (yes they join and serve in the US military too.) But back to my "Dallas" reference. This show is almost a mirror image of "Dallas," just things are different as I had mentioned. There's characters that fit each character in Dallas and there's a big mansion set in the tropics where everyone lives not out in the middle of dusty Texas. There's the old father who likes to ride horse back through the sugar fields as did Jock on the Southfork Ranch. Again, if you look close enough, you'll see these similarities :-) So thumbs up on Cane, but time will tell if I get hooked. I score a 9 out of 10, only because I'm not sure I'm hooked into watching every week just yet.

I think the fade out scene in episode #10 ("Time Away") with Alex Vega (Jimmy Smits) gazing into the Gulf wondering just how he got himself into his present situation, accompanied by the pulsating sound of "Outside" by Staind, is the single most captivating and meaningful scene that I have seen in television in recent years. CBS just has to stand by this show and accept the fact that it is simply too good to ever command a high ratings audience. In fact, CBS president Les Moonves ought to take Cane's less than stellar ratings as a compliment. This show is terrific.

Mark

I recently watched the pilot episode and can't wait for more. Jimmy Smits and the supporting cast are sensational. They draw you in and give you the true feeling of how important family is. Just like the feeling you may have had the first time you saw the Godfather. With one big difference, this family runs a legal business. The pilot episode does a fantastic job of bringing you into the family's life and establishing each character. Then the drama starts to slowly build leading up to...I'll leave all you readers with just that.This will be another keeper for CBS. So make sure to check it out. I don't believe you will be disappointed.
