FTA-TV Ray Donovan

[Gasometer]

Yeah, I really do not like Ray at all, it's quite weird to watch. I don't think they have setup his back story as well as a show like BB, which is why it's hard to understand half the shit he does. At least we found out that episode about getting r*ped as a kid by that priest he shot, some of the stuff he does makes a little more sense. It's a good show, but it's hard to like any of the characters.

Yes this far in to the Season is disappointing...Ray's seriousness overwhelms everything...some more dry lines from him needed desperately.

Does he ever crack a joke, or even remotely have a laugh? I don't mind the show, but they need to make some of the characters a bit more likeable if they want to keep viewers.

Top of the Lake and The Fall are the two best so far IMO, not counting returning series.

Broadchurch is pretty good also.

 

[DivideandMultiply]

Broadchurch is pretty good also.

Yeah Broadchurch was good.

Not as believable, well written nor probably well acted as either though.

Don't get me wrong, it was great but probably a little more surreal, contrived and melodramatic.

I did'nt mind big sophie from peep show's role in it.

Done and dusted, enjoyed it and will watch again. A let down while watching BB, but a saviour after plowing through the decaying remains of Dexter

Finale fizzled off like a can of beer after 43 minutes.

Will need to inject all of the above if it is to take off in S02.

watched 3 episodes and the intro to episode 4 where Voight is in his dreams having the time of his life with a few ladies

i'm still a bit weary, but getting there

seems to be getting a bit better each episode

First 3 were the best, then the penultimate...finale is a bit flat.

reminds me of Boredwalk empire

 

[Red Black and Blue]

Great show, built really well throughout despite taking some effort to get through the first 5 episodes. Final 3-4 eps were absolute quality.

 

[flight23]

finished it last night

strange show, seemed like it found some sorta groove in the last few episodes, but really nothing like it was hyped to be and so many weak links still in there

a few months later i let em go, but if i was watching week to week would of drove me up the wall

 

[BEEG]

Cracker of a show really enjoying it only started watching Friday 8 eps in so far

 

[JuddsABlue]

Just completed the first season

Enjoyed it, didnt leave a lasting impression on me and agree Ray can be hard to like although he has potential.

Micky steals the show obviously, the more Micky scenes the better

Hope they can take it somewhere next season with a bit more meat on the bone

I thought the first ep of the new season was alright not that good but picking up. and planting arcs for the season. Rays world is falling apart. Man my mondays are full right now with True Blood, The Leftovers, Ray Donovan, Last Week Tonight, The Strain, Masters of Sex and Robot Chicken. with 360 and On The couch in between the middle of them.

 

[BACCS]

Man I forgot how good this show is! Slowish first episode, but that preview at the end outlined a damn good season.

One of the more underrated shows on TV atm I reckon.

 

[JuddsABlue]

Is it on showcase yet? Just watched first ep online, a good start

Was hoping more action from Ray this year, looks like we'll get it, also would like to see more of black irish as well. Liking the look of the new FBI guy

Agree that its very underrated, just think the first season had a few too many silent minutes in it.

 

[Gasometer]

Probably the gumpiest shithead on TV...is it Levi or a poorly written character that has very little shade of enjoyment from very much in his life...despite telling the world he does care?

If it wasn't for Jon Voight this show would be rubbish....steals all the scenes...even if he is talking to a Dolphin.

 

[NSWCROW]
