Anyone see the season premier of "Cane" on CBS?

AWESOME show!

I'm not a big Jimmy Smits fan but this role is PERFECT for him and Paola Turbay is hot.

Quote:
Cane, a drama about a wealthy Cuban-American family torn by fratricidal tensions as its sugar and rum businesses are passed down to the next generation, is part of the new fall schedule released by CBS on Wednesday.

Set in Miami, the show has a powerhouse Latino cast—including Jimmy Smits, Rita Moreno, Hector Elizondo, Nestor Carbonell and Miami resident Paola Turbay—and executive producer Jonathan Prince promises scripts to match.

I liked how he seemed so civil etc then then the ruthless side came out. This is going to get very interesting. Sort of a bloodier Dallas.

The Mrs. and I got hooked even before the first episode aired, just from the promo on it. Then watching the show and trailers of upcoming episodes...it's gonna be awesome.

I have it recorded, but haven't seen it yet. I like Jimmy Smith and Hector Elizondo ... and he previews looked good.

From some past reading I know that the sugar business has been one of the contributing factors keeping the cuban embargo in place. It will be interesting to see if this is brought up in the series.

Mrs. Headbanger did not like this show. Both of us liked Dirty Filthy Money better and I also like the Bionic Woman.
I'll have to look for it on the torrent sites. Lately I've been stuck on the show Burn Notice.
The Mrs. and I liked Dirty Filty Money, and we have caught Burn Notice from the start, great show. As for Cane I liked it but I don't know if it will hold me for season.
