I started watching this show with my family and fell in love with it. I think it really sucks they took it off air.

What Parents Need to Know
About Cane
Parents need to know that this soapy drama has mature themes (adult sibling rivalry, corporate power struggles, underhanded/illegal tactics, etc.), strong sexual innuendo, steamy bedroom scenes (though no real nudity), and violent confrontations. The central characters -- powerful, wealthy Cuban-Americans with traditional values -- run a rum business and will do anything to protect it, as well as the "family honor."

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about what makes a TV show a "soap opera." Do you consider this series a soap? Why or why not? What do most shows that fall into the soap category have in common? How is this one similar or different? Families can also talk about the characters' culture and values. Do they provide positive Latino role models?

CANE SHOULD HAVE BEEN AN EXCITING SERIES. But instead it is pondering, dull, unimaginative show. The writing is slow and pondrerous and in an episode in the future, even steals from THE GODFATHER: "...in my house where my family lives!" (OK they switched a few words, but still...) The actors are all quite capable and talented (see their credits), but they are not given the chance to show their talents under the unispired direction and writing. Set in sunny South Florida, it looks like it was filmed in a warehouse. The sets seem under dressed and lack the character and history of the family. CANE has the look and feel of a daytime soap. The father's house is dark and dreary with sheers over the windows making it even darker. The camerawork is equally dull and the quality of the light in Southern Florida is missing. Of course this had to be shot mostly in Los Angeles, since there are no mountains in Florida (such as those shown behind the sugar cane warehouse/distillery.) Shot and editied for the "small"screen, it is a throw back to when 32" TVs were considered big. Close tight shots are the norm, as if the producers are worried the audience will forget who ithe character is. It's to bad. This is a show, that on paper, seemed full of promise. Unfortunatly it doesn't deliver.
