Raven

It is a Shame that CBS doesn't have a Clue to what a good TV series is, Raven was a fine Show,It had Great Writing,Great Chemistry (with Meek & Majors) as it's Leading stars. and Great Displays of Martial Arts in Excellent fight scenes, CBS HAD A TRUE HIT ON THEIR HANDS. but as usual They let it slip out of their hands.There should be a Release of this wonderful TV series on DVD. & A TV/REUNION MOVIE to finally add closure to this wonderful show. I have a story in mind for it,and it would be great to see Mark Dacascoss or Ernie Reyes jr to play Jonathon's son. There should be a petition to make this thing happen. Raven has a very large TV/CULT FOLLOWING. I guess is if CBS doesn't make this happen ,Then I belive that they truly live up to their name Consistantly Being Stupid. Other Good Shows That CBS has Canceled The Flash, Martial Law , Now & Again E.L. Brogden Cleveland, Ohio

I still enjoy the pilot and its a half way decent action show.But as the show went on a lot of it was very cheesy and generic.The plots for the most part were very by the number for a show like this.The writing wasn't especially creative or ground breaking.Majors seemed to be playing it a bit over the top at times.Sometimes he seemed like a competent trained side kick.Other times he came off as an eccentric old coot who i wouldn't trust anywhere near a loaded weapon.

Also found it to be a bit misogynistic.All of the women are portrayed as either weak inept villains who are easily taken out by the lead or helpless victims who need to be saved.This would feel normal for any pre-90s TV show.But here it feels a little ridiculous and out of place.

This show is part Equalizer, part Burn Notice, part Magnum PI. Lee Majors played the Sam (Bruce Campbell) character. I almost wonder if Sam wasn't a nod to him. I had never even heard of this show. Found it on EPIX.

'Raven' was a great show. It had a good plot, great fight sequences, and awesome chemistry between the actors. I highly recommend it if you can find it. I am still trying to find the episodes on videotape!

The character Raven feels like a marriage between Batman and Don Johnson. Like the former, he is a vigilante crimefighter seeking justice for murdered love ones. Also, he is cultured and disciplined in martial arts and surrounding philosophies. As the latter, he happens to be a mullet-rocking glamor boy with a penchant for women and fun. It may not sound like it, but this is a very happy marriage.

This is a lower-end action production that is uniquely inspired. Due to surprisingly tight direction, never is it a going-through-the-motions bottom shelf actioner like it would seem. It may not be strikingly original, but "Raven" is fast-paced and well-layered. It gets the job done nicely without being over the top or pretentious.

"Raven" delivers the goods in style, outweighing the guilty in the term guilty pleasure. It knows what its audience wants (hot women, fast action, fun characters and exciting locations). It is more than deserving of a late night CBS spot, but still I don't think it got the respect and attention it deserved.
