Massage parlor show. Sounds like very steamy stuff, but, guys, beware, this show definitely is geared towards the fairer sex, with some (muscular) goodies for them. Well, judging from the pilot and this, the second episode, it's gonna be six-packs and men's feet. In close-up. So, The Raven is wading about in the enemy camp. What do I find to rise up over the embarrassing result? Really not all that much. Despite its racy theme, the show plays like it has undertones of some Christian channel, the script is very conscious of religion, in the pilot, Riley glancing up guiltily, Linette's boyfriend mentioned in this episode, stuff working out like it's a schmaltzy TV movie, aaarghh, this business is sugary sweet except for the rippling six-packs and the men's soles and toes filling the screen. Okay, so Jenn appears in lingerie during her sessions with the hot-blooded male customers, but come on, rent HEARTBREAKERS, you JLH fans. Believe me, that is some of the best advice I have given here on IMDb. To guys. If you are a hot-blooded woman, I suppose, there might be some titillation here, JLH sure gets the kind of paying customer that is representative of the average lonely heart: big Tarzan Playgirl type studs. No wimpy nerdy old boys. Ooh I'm sure massage parlor workers can relate!!
I must have missed something. The pilot ended with Kyle phoning. That story-line is discarded. Maybe that was a dream as well?
Loretta Divine. Very basic character. No sass. No reason visible why she was chosen for the part. I wonder why...
The only saving grace of this show is that Jennifer Love Hewitt is foxily cute. There is definitely, for me, no other reason to watch. The Season Two is freakishly expensive due to corporate greed, I will not partake. I am still considering the original TV movie, but I'm already kinda bummed with this, so...
