We've found a great series on Netflix [View all]

"Rake"--an Australian 4-season series about a lawyer who is, well, a rake. There are mysteries, absorbing plots, lots of sex, plus it's funny as hell. I really love it.

We found it after watching "Dr. Blake", another Australian series, about a crime-solving physician, which isn't nearly as good as Rake.

No--think Hogarth cyclonefence Sep 2017 #3

Unlike Hogarth's rake, Clever always manages to tap dance through the mine fields he's made. sarge43 Sep 2017 #5

Clever? I thought it was Cleaver. cyclonefence Sep 2017 #6
