At the end of last week’s episode, “The 1-3-2,” Ray Donovan was laying in the middle of his living room, hungover and beaten to a pulp. Ray is loyal to those who deserve it, and yet he had sold out his boss, Sam Winslow, as well as Anita Novak, the woman running for mayor of […] More

Ray Donovan S6E7 Recap: The 1-3-2
This was one of those weeks of Ray Donovan where I continually said to myself, “What? What?? WHAAAT?!” Not everything made perfect sense, but I have faith it will in the coming weeks.

Both episodes were white knuckle rides, making one question which nail-biting scene was actually going to be the last.

Ray Donovan — the show and its titular character — have been in disarray so far this sixth season. Ray is half the man he used to be. His father and primary antagonist, Mickey, has been on lockdown or in a hospital bed. The two driving forces of the series have been aimless, and all […] More

Ray Donovan, S6E2 Recap: Staten Island, Part 2
The sixth season premiere of Ray Donovan felt like sitting in the middle of a thick fog. In the snap of a finger, Ray was a bearded everyman in a fleece jacket, crashing on the couch of a virtual stranger — separated from his occupation, family and home turf of Los Angeles. Ray has never […] More

Ray Donovan, S6E1 Recap: Staten Island, Part 1
Ray Donovan returns for its sixth season with the premiere episode, “Staten Island, Part 1,” still whispering the maxim of season five: Ray is a man adrift. Literally. Liev Schreiber’s titular character was last seen jumping off a building and into the East River, chasing an apparition of his deceased wife, Abby, to the bottom […] More

Ray Donovan: A Preview of Season 6
Before my weekly recaps and analysis of the forthcoming six season of Ray Donovan, let’s take a look at where the show has been, and where it might go… “Speak softly and carry a big stick,” once wrote Theodore Roosevelt. For five seasons now, Liev Schreiber has portrayed the titular character of Ray Donovan, tweaking […] More
