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.
The higher a show’s ratings (particularly the 18-49 demo), the better its chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available — typically the following morning, around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.

The final nationals are typically released within 24 hours of the programming or, in the case of weekends and holidays, a couple days later.
What do you think? Do you like the Rake TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
This is one of the best shows on tv. Great stories and characters. Please give it a chance, and put it in a decent time slot. With all the garbage on TV, this show was very refreshing.
I’m liking RAKE. It’s a good deal of fun, it’s a little transgressive without being rude or nasty about it, it’s clever, and it’s the only other current show besides QI and The Big Bang Theory I bother with. This probably means it’ll be cancelled.
PLEASE don’t cancel Rake…it is one of my favorite shows!
loved the show and i need a 2nd season…
Great show, started slow but got awesome! Don’t cancel this show Fox!
Amazing show. The characters are so lovable and the plot is really interesting. Greg Kinnear is the perfect man for the role. absolutely amazing. I would hate it if the show gets cancelled.
This was my favorite show! I started watching it when it was after American Idol. Then it seemingly disappeared and I watched it on demand. It deserves to be in a much better spot. Never once did I see the network promote it like it does many of its other shows. Greg Kinnear was brilliant. Amazing show.
Imaginative plots, interesting characters, superb acting-this program deserves to be continued. Paul Chaliff
Come on Fox! You gotta renew this show.
For once a show that really IS entertaining instead of all these CRAPPY reality shows.
Keep it on the air or lose even more viewers!!
Totally loved it. Shame on Fox for letting it go! Told everyone to watch it.
Loved it! Hope they renew it now.
Please, please, please do NOT cancel this one!!!! So witty! Why don’t people like clever anymore? I didn’t think I needed to worry about this one!
love the program great and funny lines ,good acting, don’t you dare take it off the air….a fresh different program needs to stay on the air…………
I could not agree more bob – lets hope they keep this smart and funny show on.
I loved RAKE!!!! Fox should really re-air the whole series, but they need to start the show at 9 pm. I think their ratings would be drastically different!
