    I still enjoy the pilot and its a half way decent action show.But as the show went on a lot of it was very cheesy and generic.The plots for the most part were very by the number for a show like this.The writing wasn't especially creative or ground breaking.Majors seemed to be playing it a bit over the top at times.Sometimes he seemed like a competent trained side kick.Other times he came off as an eccentric old coot who i wouldn't trust anywhere near a loaded weapon.Also found it to be a bit misogynistic.All of the women are portrayed as either weak inept villains who are easily taken out by the lead or helpless victims who need to be saved.This would feel normal for any pre-90s TV show.But here it feels a little ridiculous and out of place.

    I was still very little when this show aired here in Europe, but even so, I still remember two shows me and my family were sort of addicted to : Sledge Hammer and Raven. Although not very alike, they were and are both icons of genius series in the 80's and 90's. I still remember the great scenery and atmosphere in Rave and the fights were exciting as ever, how else would a little guy like I was remember such a show clearly? The main characters were great developed and Raven himself had such a great mystery over him as a former member of the Black Dragons. As mentioned by many people here before me, it's a pity that Raven (and sledge hammer too) had such a short lifespan. And while many shows are now re-released on DVD, Raven stays in the cold for no apparent reason, at least to me. Please release this show and make us happy :(

    This was probably the finest martial arts serial on modern TV. I would compare it favorably with the Green Hornet. The cast was excellent, both playing their parts well and displaying admirable chemistry. I wish this show was available to buy, but no such luck.

    'Raven' was a great show. It had a good plot, great fight sequences, and awesome chemistry between the actors. I highly recommend it if you can find it. I am still trying to find the episodes on videotape!
