Let's be realistic.
... View MoreTells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.
... View MoreThe movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.
... View MoreGreat story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
... View MoreI have been waiting for so long for a program like this. The writers of this show are not even close to being like the other hacks in the industry. The character lineup is genius! I haven't enjoyed a show this much since Married with Children & All in the Family. I will be definitely buying the whole box set. I just can't give you folks enough credit or compliments, this show just makes me so happy that I have something to look forward to when I actually watch television.
... View MoreThe main thing in the show is Jimmy and Hope, the description on this site is "Jimmy becomes a single parent to an infant after the mother he had a one-night stand with ends up on death row.".I personally don't care too much about Jimmy's situation due to the extreme likability of Burt and Virginia and as I watched more and more episodes I saw the focus move to them more and in a lot of episodes Hope was just dumped of at day care or something. Then Shannon Woodard (Sabrina) came in started appearing more often and it took even more attention away from Jimmy and Hope. Burt & Virginia are the best couple on TV I've ever seen. I had no idea who Martha Plimpton (Virginia) was until this show but she is amazing. I'd love to see a show where it's just those 2 going about their lives. But yh, I could go on all day about this show. It's incredible so give it a go!
... View MoreA brilliant TV show. Unfortunately UK TV stopped showing this after the second series but we took to the Internet to watch the last two series. To our dismay we then found out that this show was canceled. Raising hope is a very funny family based comedy which shows that you don't have to be rich or functional to love each other. My favorite characters in the show are Frank closely followed by Burt, Sabrina, Maw Maw and Virginia in that order but they bounce off each other's personalities in a special way.I would have loved to see this show reach a tenth season. Much like friends this is a show I can keep watching and it never fails to amuse me.
... View MoreJimmy Chance (Lucas Neff) has an one-night stand with crazed death row murderer. She's executed, and he's left with the baby. Now he's a single dad living with his parents (Garret Dillahunt, Martha Plimpton) and his grandma (Cloris Leachman). He falls for check out girl Sabrina (Shannon Woodward).From the same people who created 'My Name Is Earl', it has the same sense of ridiculous humor. I love the comedy, but I love the family more. Martha Plimpton has always struck me as Virginia, the loud nurturing type. The family is in the lower income class similar to the Bundys in 'Married with Children'. And they're almost as funny.
