Greg Kinnear has found critical and box office success in movies but that’s no guarantee that his Rake TV series will be a ratings hit for FOX. Will it be renewed for a second season or will it be cancelled instead? We’ll have to wait and see.
Rake follows a lawyer (Greg Kinnear) who tries to do good but just can’t seem to get beyond his numerous addictions that cause him so much trouble. The cast also includes John Ortiz, Necar Zadegan, Bojana Novakovic, David Harbour, Tara Summers, Miranda Otto, and Ian Colletti.

What do you think? Do you like the Rake TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
Don’t cancel Rake! Please!!! We LOVE the show and I’ll be upset if it’s cancelled.
This is the funniest show on TV. Rake & The Following are the only shows I watch on FOX. Rake would probably do better on FX or one of the more innovative networks.
I hope it doesn’t get canceled.
This show is so good. If fox cancels it I’m gonna flip out. Common give it a chance to catch on!!!!!!
DO NOT CANCEL- RAKE ITS AS GOOD OR BETTER AS SEINFELD WAS IN YEAR ONE..
PLEASE RENEW PLEASE GIVE IT MORE TIME AND PROMOTION DOLLARS
We L-=O-V-E Rake..PLEASE leave it the hell alone..
It’s hilarious..touching..Kinnear is so appealing..Help it out a bit..This show is a Winner!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rake is among the BEST shows on TV! I certainly hope the show continues to flip us and lead us down a path only to end up differently. With all the really poor shows that are on, this one is fun, entertaining and worthy of another season.
Finding Keegan to be surprisingly moral for a Rake! Love the writing and the actors! I watch on dvr because I don’t watch commercials! Don’t let the ratings fool you! 18 to 49 demographic is too wide range! 30-40’s aren’t out on friday nights, they are home watching! 18-25 are out on Friday nights, they don’t care what’s on tv!
Great show, very well written, clever and funny. Moving it to Friday was a mistake.
Good show but they killed it after moving from Thu. to Fri.
Sadly the ratings totally plummeted on friday.I never
Watch in real time anyway ….but its just sad to see this show go away! Kinnear and supporting cast outstanding!
Rake is a great show!!!
Love the show. Please do not cancel.
I agree with comments above. Really look forward to seeing each episode. Greg Kinear was made to play this character. One of the best shows on television.
I really like this show. I think Greg Kinnear is great in this part. He plays it just right as a person who just can’t get it together personally but at the same time happens to be really good at what he does. I hope it isn’t cancelled.
Rake is one of the best shows on TV! It’s my favorite show. It has a little bit of everything. I only wish it were on more often because I can’t wait to see the next episode. I really hope they use their brains and keep this show on. Greg Kinnear is perfect for this role. It was made for him. He is charming and irascible, lovable and exasperating.
If they take this show off, I’m never watching Fox again.
Ditto for me everything that Jim said!!!
Please don’t cancel this show! It’s the ONE show on TV worth watching! Love love love it!,
Love Rake!…Love Kinnear!..Love the supporting cast!
It’d be gre3at if Fox let’s it live another season!
