The Rainmaker

The pilot didn't really leave me hooked, I'll probably keep watching because I enjoy the cast, especially Lana. I think the show could have some potential, but the scripts can definitely be better. Can't really blame the acting, if the writing just isn't there. I think it's a good story and hopefully will get better as the season progresses.

To be honest, I don't understand all these crazy reviews of 1 or 10 stars after just 1 episode.

The pilot was in my opinion decent - not as terrible or amazing as so many reviews suggest. I enjoyed it for now and it was interesting enough that I will watch at least a couple more episodes to form a proper opinion. So we'll see how the story develops. For me the pilot was somewhere between a 6 or 7 rating, but I hate all the negativity and bumped it up for now, hoping the series will improve in the next episodes. Depending on how this goes, I will probably amend my rating though.

Don't listen to the first reviewer.

I loved the pilot to be honest. It was a bit messy with multiple plotlines that kept me interested. The acting was decent. I didn't notice too much that was distracting.

Madison, Milo, Wade, and Lana were actually why I began watching this. I love the cast sm already. Obviously, It's not oscar worthy at least judging by the first episode but it has potential.

I also love the soundtrack and cinematography. Btw, I don't even like lawyer shows that much so this was a surprise. Other than that don't anything else to say, I'm super excited for what comes next!

The show has promise i will admit. Unlike suits we see cases overarch through multiple episodes and the mystery of Dan Foglers nurse character.

John Slattery definitely carries the actors in scenes. The lunch scene with him dropping the fries to "define our relationship" to the first year associate asking for a favor was greatly written and delivered by him perfectly.

Contrary wise in the scene with Baylor talking to his soon to be client the writers pussied out. The opportunity was there for him to explode and tell that woman that she knows nothing about him and how he had to struggle to get where he was. Wouldve been a powerful excert considering the hits he's endured the whole episode. The whole "common enemy" bit killed the potential of the scene.

I was looking forward to this! But nah, I wouldn't watch this regularly at all. They went from Mickey to a woman?! Why? I don't like changing characters. Stay true to the story. Next, the acting is sub par. Except for a couple people, I want exciting, suspense, & drama...that what this should be about. Not boring with not funny jokes. Or just dirty talk and people getting laid. Lol we can watch that anywhere. Give me something good damn it. Or Bette casting.
