TV Review: TNT’s ‘Raising the Bar’ Presents Opening Arguments For Season Two
Submitted by BrianTT on June 8, 2009 - 1:49pmCHICAGO – I’m a huge Stephen Bochco fan and like most of the cast of TNT’s “Raising the Bar,” returning tonight to start season two and recently released on DVD in a first season set. But I can’t handle the tone changes, two-dimensional characters, and complete lack of judicial realism on this show, one that has promise on paper but has never worked in episode form.
