Ray Donovan -- Best HBO series since Sopranos?
 
It definitely has potential. I'm liking it so far.


Been watching it?

Loving that show.

Jon Voight is freakin' AWESOME in it. And last night they introduced the new character with James Woods playing that part.

You can tell those guys are having a blast with these characters.

It shows on HBO/MovieCentral here where I am. But yes, I see it's a showtime production.

Yes, her character definitely does smack of her trying to be Carmela Soprano much of the time.

Well, except for this week's episode where she spontaneously decides to steel a $3000 pair of boots from a shop. Carmela would have rather shat in public than pull a stunt like that.

I don't have HBO, so fuck 'em. I waited until until Sporanos had run it's course and then watched it start to finish over a one month period. I can wait.

Lots of stuff on TV in the mean time.

It's a fantastic show. Well written, great acting.

My favorite however was Magic City on Starz but they cancelled it along with Boss ( another awesome show )

sandman! 08-12-2013 02:08 PM

kane 08-12-2013 02:24 PM
I have missed the last couple of episodes, but have the recorded. I have really liked what I have seen so far. It is an interesting show with some great performances.

Supz 08-12-2013 02:54 PM

No. No, unless you're subscribe to them via Cable TV. Yes.

Paul&John 08-12-2013 03:02 PM

Magic City is canceled? I just watched the latest episode on Starz this last Friday. When did they decide to cancel it?

slapass 08-12-2013 05:28 PM
House of Lies is my favorite all time. I wish it would come back.

Darkhorse 08-12-2013 05:30 PM
Great show so far, Liev Schreiber is so raw and foreboding as Ray (sure wouldn't mess with him). Jon Voight is awesome as mentioned. Can't wait to see where it goes.

Magic City has got to be expensive to produce, being set in the 60's -- or is it 50's? Either way, the sets, wardrobe, hair styling, vehicles...it has to be pricey for such a small show.

It's got some of the finest looking girls I've ever seen in a TV show.

It was set in 1959. I really liked Magic City too, especially being produced here in South Florida. It didn't get a lot of traction and viewership however and season two ended in multiple cliffhangers that will never get resolved unfortunately.

Why wish? It had already been renewed for a third season back in January 2013 .

No shit, Magic City's done ? Too bad :2 cents:

I was really disheartened by the canceling of the show. I thought it was one of the smartest .. and sexiest shows on TV.

Worse IMHO ... was the article. Apparently Starz has decided to focus on " broadly appealing, commercial dramas" (shit TV).

Sad Article >

Wonder if another network like HBO, Showtime or even AEE might pick something like this up? The show did get nominated for a Golden Globe.

The show wasn't anywhere near popular enough unfortunately to be worth the bother.

I will check that show

skylyne 08-13-2013 03:19 AM
Only series worth watching on TV right now. Hoping HBO gets their shit together soon!

EroAdvertising Paul 08-13-2013 07:21 AM
I never saw it, but I watched the trailer on Youtube... Awesome. :thumbsup

Choopa Phil 08-13-2013 08:37 AM

Idealy I'd like to see HBO put together another really great series but have it run longer than just a measly 10 or 12 episodes per year. Half the time you've all but forgotten about a series no matter how good it is when you only see it for a few months and then a year goes by before you get another taste.

But it most likely won't happen so I won't hold my breath.

Pretty much every drama series of this nature has a "bit of a slow start", mostly because they have to introduce the characters and establish plotlines etc. But I could see almost immediately in the first two episodes that I was going to like this one.

I love Shreiber's line in that last episode, while on his car phone to a client -

"I'm not the kind of guy you fire."

:D

If Time Warner ever gives me Showtime back, I'll let you know.

Antonio 08-15-2013 10:56 AM
I wasn't impressed; Longmire is a good one, if they cut all the Indian crap, it would be as good as Justified if not better

Magic City was a good one too

Yeah, that kid may have sealed his fate when he pushed Ray's daughter's head down trying to get her to give him head. His reaction when she said no is grounds enough for any dad putting his entitled wannabe hoodrapper ass through a wall several times.

Ray needs to bury the little puke, but he probably won't because his daughter is being all stupidly defensive of him, which is typical of a lot of young females who think every badass punk they meet is a "nice guy".
