Description

In Series 3 of the hit Australian comedy-drama, smart but self-destructive lawyer Cleaver Greene (Richard Roxburgh, Moulin Rouge!, Van Helsing) languishes in prison on manslaughter charges. After serving several months surrounded by old enemies, fellow lawyer Scarlet (Danielle Cormack, Wentworth) wins his appeal hearing. Cleaver is overjoyed to be released, but soon finds that things have changed since he went inside—Scarlet has opened her own practice, his best friend faces a startling diagnosis, and his already bad reputation has been seriously damaged. Not even criminals want to be represented by Cleaver, until a corruption scandal involving casino mogul Tikki Wendon (Geneviève Lemon, Top of the Lake) and former Attorney General Cal McGregor (Damien Garvey, Jack Irish) yields Cleaver new clients. Guest stars in this “smart, cheeky, and funny legal series” (Newcastle Herald, Australia) include Magda Szubanski (Kath and Kim), John Noble (The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King), Robyn Nevin (The Matrix films), and Cate Blanchett (Elizabeth, Blue Jasmine).

Four Stars, but it would be five if it had SUBTITLES, which Australian accents need!
I gave it 4 stars, but it would be 5 if it had subtitles, which are really, really needed when you're trying to make sense of the Australian version of English. Another reviewer, who gave it 1 star for lacking subtitles--and I totally understand why he did--suggests that Amazon require subtitles, or, in the alternative, require sellers to say in large letters that there are none. I think that reviewer is right. In general, it is only fair to put warnings on videos that people who are deaf or hard of hearing cannot hear. But beyond that, when people speak with accents that make their speech unintelligible about 70% of the time, there ought to be captions. And there are captions for Seasons 1 and 2 on Netflix. So I don't see why captions wouldn't be available on DVD for Season 3. The reason I gave it 4 stars (and it should be 5) is because this is a terrific series. Really original. Brilliantly written. Acted to perfection. Lush, vile, profane, intelligent. It's a wonderful series that ranks not quite as high as Breaking Bad or The Wire--nothing does-- but if they're a 10 this is a 9. Warning: It was remade as an American series. The American series was a disaster. Get the one with Richard Roxburgh, he's marvelous. Also, considering that other reviewers have said that the quality of the DVDs is pretty bad, it would be better to watch it on Netflix. If you want to wait to watch the whole series, the person at Netflix told me that they wait until Season 4 comes out to release Season 3, which is plenty annoying, but that's what they said. They started filming Season 4 in Sept. of 2015, and it hasn't premiered yet. So the best you can do at this point is to catch Seasons 1 and 2 on Netflix, get Season 3 on DVD and wait with the rest of us for Season 4 to be released. ... show more

If you're a fan, you must have this
Having already bought the first two series [bought at a library book sale!]....I had to have this. Ridiculously funny. It's flawed, as are the first 2 seasons, but maybe the chances taken are what I like about it so much. There aren't as many "new stories" in this, the last season. It really tries to sorta tie up lose ends between the characters we already know so they could end it on a pos note. [?] I wouldn't be surprised to see a movie or 2, but Roxburgh has said it was meant to be 3 seasons, there will be no 4th, if there was, it won't be seen til '16, so... He seems a wee bit tired in this, but as I understand it, he was the producer this time as well, as the other bloke came here for the US version which was a flop. I haven't seen it, tho', so....But maybe that's the point, he wants to right all his wrongs. If you enjoy Australian comedy, you will love this. Esp the ending of the last episode. I won't spoil it. Wish all tv was this creative. Australians have crassness down to an art. It doesn't seem crass! ... show more

Brilliant writing, Brilliant acting, Brilliant show!
I am totally in love with the irrepressible irreverent Rake. His childlike behaviours, offbeat sense of humour, acute attention to detail and his overall anti-establishment attitudes range from whimsical to moving to insightful to humble to magical. His lack of impulse control, aided by imbibing various chemicals serves to highlight his oh-so-human flaws....I find myself first cringing.....then saying "oh no".....and finally being awed. By the way in which his A.D.D. and frenzied unrealistic expectations resolve into a single brilliant thread. He displays a range and depth of emotion and character that is seldom seen in American drama. He manages to pull off being ridiculous and infantile in his acting out, but so utterly redeeming. I found myself laughing out loud at the slapstick episode in which he scurries around like a chicken without a head, trying to manage three cases in different venues simultaneously. And at the end of the last episode, I shed a tear. How perfect! PLEASE PLEASE give us more seasons of Rake! ... show more

Good.
This third in the series gets a 4 star rather than 5 star from me because it went a little off the rails which is probably to be expected. The author's went for more more more of the same in other words. Roxburgh does great impressions, the comedy is good as this soap opera continues on its way. Nearly all the characters are hugely dysfunctional and although they attempt to make Cleaver Greene the villainous dysfunctional character, they all feed off of him. It's predictable in parts but also surprising in others. If you enjoyed the first two series, then this one must be seen (to be believed if nothing else). ... show more

A more serious side to Cleaver
Good fum, but some serious issues at times.I loved Mal and I wish he and Missy would get it together. I wasn't dying about the Felicity plotline. As bad as things get, he always triumphs. I have to say, he is a lot like my brother, with a lot more cocaine. He always lands on his feet. The Barney and Scarlet story lines are quite touching. This season is different from previous ones-more characterization and personal drama, fewer court cases, but still a winner. I love Richard Roxburgh-he seems to have great chemistry with whoever he works with and his comic rants are second to none. ... show more

I like the series but having playback issues.
I like the series a lot but I can't get Series 3, episode 2 to play on any of my devices. No issues with Series 1 and 2 and Episode 1 of Series 3. BUT Series 3, episode 2 won't play. I get episode 3 instead and when I play episode 3, I get episode 3. Any explanation, fix or others with the same problem? I did try to submit an inquiry but not sure if it was sent. ... show more

Please Note That There is Some Profanity

They seemed to be just sitcoms that weren't particularly funny. The Australians nailed it
Several years ago the American networks made a big deal about having invented a new art form: the "dramedy". Frankly I felt the examples they trotted out ("Slap Maxwell", "Molly Dodd") never really worked. They seemed to be just sitcoms that weren't particularly funny. The Australians nailed it. "Rake" is hilarious. I think the difference - and this is critical - is that there aren't really any jokes. If the direction were a bit different, these shows could play as straight dramas with very little re-writing. Add in that the casting and writing are both superb and you've got the funniest, smartest show on TV. ... show more
