Producers: Peter Duncan, Peter Tolan, Michael Wimer, Richard Roxburgh, Greg Kinnear, Ian Colletti

Based on the Australian series, Rake follows the chaotic and comedic life of criminal defense lawyer Keegan Deane (Kinnear). Brilliant, frustratingly charming, and with zero filter, Keegan is one of life’s great addicts. His staggering lack of discretion and inability to self-censor land him the cases that nobody else wants, but behind that lies a resolute optimism and belief in justice that fuel his dogged determination to defend those who seem beyond redemption. In addition to Keegan’s cases within the justice system, the show follows his personal trials and tribulations, including his ongoing battle against the IRS, his mounting debt to his bookie, overlapping affairs and liaisons with women, a hormonal son, an exhausted ex-wife and the evolving relationship between his two married best friends, Ben and Scarlett.

I'm not familiar with the Australian version, but will watch because of Tolan and Kinnear.
