Still looking for a new show to watch, the ones I've tried haven't kept me interested past Season 1.

Anyone here watch / seen this?

Throw me some opinions, the premise of him being a fixer for rich people sounds bretty interesting.

1st season was good, somewhat went downhill after that, haven't got round to watching the 3rd, probably won't bother.
>>
Watch Peaky Bloinders

I really like Ray Donovan but I would really like more of his daily routines. There isn't much "fixing" shown for a show about fixer. Of course it shows that he has money, power, resources and contacts but those are only put into use when he or his family member/friend is in need. There is no routine that would correspond to him being the fixer.

Dexter was about a serial killer punishing those left unpunished to adress his urges. So we had a killing done by Dex quite often. Ray Donovan is not fixing things for rich and famous. He is just in the middle of family drama.

List off some shows you like so we can offer better suggestions

Really liked Burn Notice, probably the show that did going under cover the best I've seen, also Mike doing spy shit and telling you about it was interesting to watch.

Oz was great, don't see any other worthy prison dramas out there though (not interested in OITNB).

Boston Legal, Curb Your Enthusiasm and Justified were a few others I've enjoyed over the years.

How about Deadwood?

It's just started but The Path is something I've liked so far. Here are the first two eps: https://mega.nz/#F!3l0nHRLC!BDAuPBugYdHpOKJsM41OJA

That's a shame, this was the main draw for me.

Interested more in that than family drama.

The Knick and Rectify

I've been watching pic-related and it is very good. It also only like 8 episodes so not a huge time investment, but still very exciting.

>>68212245
Not OP but pretty solid show with some poor editing and acting occasionally. I'm actually bummed that it's only 8 episodes because I look forward to seeing Sarah Gadon looking gorgeous every episode

I lost interest after S3.

>Rectify
If OP struggles to "keep interested" in shows, and in his post suggests something so plebian as Ray Donovan of all things, do you REALLY think he will be interested in an ultra-slow burning arthouse drama like Rectify?

I mean, the show is fantastic, but come on. Know your audience.

>Ray Donovan is plebian

???

It's a smartly written show and doesn't spoonfeed the audience, it's certainly not made for the masses.

Stop being such a pretentious cunt.

>>68212139

If you haven't seen the Sopranos, obviously that.

Smartly written show? Are you fucking serious?

I bet you think Dexter is smartly written too.
>>
>>68214241
Ray Donovan blows Dexter right out of the park in terms of writing and I liked Dexter fine save for some shitty seasons.

>>68210926
You could at least give a list of shit you actually like.
