mgutierrez17 The best of the best in Raines... entertains, chains you to the television to the end of the program in all and each one of the programs. Rains selects the best and better actors every time with to very good taste in everything... the visions, the drama or sweet comedy.... I believe that we have to very good series for so long time.But what I can tell them ,if the series has all in there, is not words to describe the excellent quality of the librettos, actors, photographs and the charisma of Jeff Goldblum, Alexa Avalos, etc., etc., etc.Iam very grateful I founded and congratulations to NBC
xredgarnetx RAINES is a perfect case of an actor superior to his material. Jeff Goldblum plays a brilliant but somber detective who imagines he communicates with the victims of the murders he is being sent to investigate. The usually quirky Goldlbum actually is rather subdued here, dealing with very dark mysteries in some cases. No tricky effects, just images of victims popping in and out of Goldblum's mind to help him figure out who killed them and/or how they died. Problem is, most of the shows have verged on the pedestrian while Goldblum is consistently interesting. He's like Monk crossed with Ghost Whisperer crossed with House, M.D. We will see how far this series can go without benefit of more interesting scripts.
chrichtonsworld Another crime drama with an original approach! Solving crimes in TV shows and movies has been done to death! So what does "Raines" add to this genre! Well plenty! First you have Jeff Goldblum! A very charismatic actor who always is convincing as a genius with certain flaws! In "Raines" he is a detective who is literally seeing his murdered victims! He only gets rid of seeing them when he solves their murder! The brilliance of this peculiar matter is that it all is happening in his mind! It is not certain if he is mad or becoming mad! To me it seems like a tool for him dealing with the murders and the death of his partner! It actually helps him solving the cases! Sometimes he has the feeling that he is losing control! And is afraid that people will find out! There is more to this and we sure will find out later! Each episode is full of little twists and turns that will keep you watching! Especially on the drama front! It is nice to see different sides of a murder victim to get a more objective view! And it is fun to watch what is going on with Raines! I like the fact that sometimes he is helping the friends or relatives of the murdered victims! It is noble and touching! Excellent!
sherrylrsc What a treat! We don't have to wait for a movie with just the right part to see Jeff. "Raines" is a perfect fit and it is a pleasure to see him on weekly TV! I was channel-surfing on my way to the History Channel, and, "Wow," I found Jeff and something surprisingly entertaining. "Raines" is different from the psychics in the current TV plots; a stressed-out detective having hallucinations is believable. I've grown older with Jeff watching him since "the Big Chill." Jeff seems to be one of those remarkable people who start out in acting with great performances and continues to deliver for his fans. Impressive. I may start to watch a regular series on TV again!
