Don't Believe the Hype

Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Not sure why people liked this show. It's like a 70's sitcom with some swearing in it, and nothing all that funny. What's worse, there's no hockey in it. Just a bunch of guys who say they play hockey, but I've watched 4 episodes now, and while there's stuff that happens on the ice, it's not actually hockey. It's like hockey is just some kind of marketing gimmick they use, but they don't seem to love or respect the game itself. I feel badly for Tiger Williams and Phil Esposito - genuine hockey legends - being exploited for something so banal. Hockey is an amazing game to play - and those who play it really love it. It's a game of power, skill, quickness, and creativity. Instead of really trying to portray people who love the game, they opted instead to rehash stereotypes of hockey fans as shallow and stupid.

Takes place on what is believed to be little Italy in Toronto and has the setting of a café called "Cafe Primo" supposed to look like an Italian sports bar with wacky Italian Canadian characters carrying thick Italian like accents including one dubbed Joey "Almost" because he places almost at th end of every sentence. The owner of the Baris Johnny played by Louis Di Bianco. The main character is the employee Cake played by Christopher Bolton. Cake being short for mangae cake Italian for cake eater. Cake also happens to run a goalie rental service where for $50 he sends a goalie out to different hockey games to play for teams in need. All in all great program so far, Lots of appearances form hockey legends including Phil Esposito

This is a great show! I hope it lives longer than one season. The concept is quite interesting, not to its mention originality. And Toronto as the setting? Make's complete sense to me. Why not? Stop hating please. Where else would this story take place? I really like the characters involved. Ah, well, the two Italian dudes who are always cutting Cake up are a bit annoying, but I guess that's why the show is appealing. It has an original and realistic feel to it. Well, original and realistic minus the fictional hockey teams used in the "cup" episode.BTW: My girlfriend thinks Cake is cute. She gives the show a 9!

Okay, those of you south of the 49th, don't bother. Unless you're in North Dakota, Minnesota, or Buffalo. You're all honorary Canadians, so you might get it....It's rude, it's crude, and based on the first episode, it's incredibly funny.Cake is kinda like Ed, from that t.v. show -- but instead of a lawyer running a bowling alley, Cake runs a goalie-rental service out of a cappuccino bar, when he's not fighting with the boss's daughter.It loses points for being based in Toronto. At least, I assume it's based in Toronto. It certainly could be. And THAT is enough to lose it points.Sitcoms aren't really the kinds of shows one can describe -- it's like Cheers, except it's R-rated, and since most of the characters are goalies, they are NUTS!!!!
