Raven

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.

This was probably the finest martial arts serial on modern TV. I would compare it favorably with the Green Hornet. The cast was excellent, both playing their parts well and displaying admirable chemistry. I wish this show was available to buy, but no such luck.

I loved the 90's. That was my era. Everything about it was the best; the music, the movies, the fashion, and the T.V. series. One of which was my favorite: Raven. It was so enjoyable & entertaining. The cast for this series were timeless. Jeff Meek was great, as was Lee Majors. They really had something going on with this hit. My Friends & I would all get together at another friends house to watch it. Unfortunately, It was cut short. Dropped by the network, banished from the public eye. I realize that it's probably been too long now to ask why, and the political side to the story would probably be a bit ugly. But what I would really like to know is this; why has it not made it onto DVD format yet? My plea is probably falling on deaf ears, but if someone who can make this work is listening out there.... Please bring this classic back to life. Please bring it to DVD.

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

'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!
