Not to mention whatever they were burning and the chain saw noise? I guess they had to show the clean up to show how the Donovans band together? But it was kind of a ghoulish quality, like they're on automatic. Smitty has real human reactions to what's happening but Bridget serves sandwiches to the family who are all covered in blood and then sets the plate down and runs the chain saw herself. OK, maybe Mickey and the brothers have done this before but not Bridget. Meanwhile, Ray goes to settle scores, which includes Sam, the one giving him the lifestyle and gives Lena closure. Looks cool but she didn't have any harness so even if she can hold herself up on that rope, there would be some serious rope burns. Now the mayor of NYC can get Bunchy out of federal custody? First he gets kickbacks from state prison and now he gets someone free from serious federal charges. This is not your father's city government. Well looks like he has a job offer with Ferratti but doubtful he can provide Ray with the lifestyle that he's become accustomed to. But now his face is on TV so how will he continue to fix things? And Anita may be heard from again. 2 Link to comment
LoveLeigh January 13, 2019 Share January 13, 2019 (edited) I knew this season's finale would end with Ray calling Dr. Alan Alda. So the next season will leap forward to a new and mentally healthy Ray Donovan? Ray is a serial killer and a sociopath. But, Liev Schreiber makes him in some way likable. Ah, it is a miracle how TV f*cks with our heads. So when will season 7 air? In 2020? These long time periods between seasons for so many shows gets me nuts. Bridget trotting out with sandwiches as her family was digging holes to bury dead people who were in that garage getting their heads chopped off was excellent comic relief.

mxc90 January 13, 2019 Share January 13, 2019 (edited) Why did I waste time watching all the episodes? Everything was summarized in the beginning of the episode. Once Bridget grabbed the chain saw, I thought Smitty was dreaming (but he wasn't). When did she become accustomed to the blood/hacking Donovan behavior? I understand she hated the cops for holding her hostage but this is new level of craziness for her. Sandy's shrubs are so high the neighbors can't see what's going on? Ray must hate snow. Never mention snow to Ray! Poor Smitty! He had plenty of chances to leave this family. How is Bunchy released, he should be locked away for killing the guard with a hammer. It's too late for Mickey to try and prove he wasn't a shitty father! Would loved to have seen Lena taking care of Sam. There will be another season of Donovan hi jinks! Yay! Four cops are dead/missing, Ray comes forward with Sam/Novak and none of the other NYPD are questioning him? I guess this was part of the deal with Ferrati?

ElectricBoogaloo January 13, 2019 Author Share January 13, 2019 Dear Show, The only people who are still watching this show are not casual viewers who need a FOUR MINUTE musical montage of the entire season before the actual episode starts. Suck it, EB 1 12 Link to comment
ElectricBoogaloo January 13, 2019 Author Share January 13, 2019 It seemed a little out of character for Bridget to casually serve sandwiches and offer to use the chainsaw to keep cutting up bodies, but I guess the writers decided she needed to join in the Donovan criminal activity without blinking to make Smitty look like a wuss. Leave it to Mickey to ruin Bridget's wedding dinner with his drunken defensive outburst. Way to make it all about you, Mickey! And who cares if Mickey was there to read James Joyce to the kids? Does that make up for abandoning his kids when their mother was dying of cancer? Does that make up for being a shitty father? Not in my book. 9 Link to comment

Well, he was able earlier, at Ray's request, to get the FBI to drop the investigation into Bunchy. I guess Mr. Mayor still has his high-up FBI contact that could tell the agent to turn Bunchy loose. 7 hours ago, mxc90 said: Once Bridget grabbed the chain saw, I thought Smitty was dreaming (but he wasn't).

I know. She went awfully fast from hating Ray and all he's done to being quite fine w/ the covering up of the murders of three cops. I know the cops kidnapped her and Ray rescued her, but it's not the first time Ray has saved her from serious trouble / death. Yet, she still hated what he did and didn't accept it. BTW, it's a herd of cows, and a murder of crows, but what do you call a bunch of cops? 7 hours ago, mxc90 said: How is Bunchy released, he should be locked away for killing the guard with a hammer. The FBI agent told Terry that the guard didn't die, but he was severely concussed. But, you're right - between that, helping a fugitive escape, and kidnapping a child, Bunchy really should be facing a long jail term. 6 hours ago, mxc90 said: I could be wrong but I don't think this show would let us see/think Ray killed a woman (even as vile as Sam). I just assumed they showed Lena entering her building to go kill Sam. Given that Sam's betrayal could have resulted in Bridget's death, I thought Ray killed Sam, then took the muscle and called Lena so she could hang him. I also thought Lena was going into the funeral home to see her friend and not Sam's building. And, Lena's so bad ass that, never mind not wearing a harness, she didn't even where gloves. It was funny seeing her look at her palms as she entered the funeral home. At the start of the episode, I thought that Ray was going to kill the Mayor, but do it in such a way that he framed Sam - maybe by having her new fixer in the room. I should have realized that wouldn't be enough for Ray. 5 Link to comment
leighdear January 13, 2019 Share January 13, 2019 So I came away with this: I loved the outfit Susan/Sam was wearing. The russet colored silk top and the floral accented wide-leg trousers were gorgeous and so classy. That's all I got. 1 3 Link to comment

Lena still could have done it or maybe Ray did kill Sam (looking at the scene again: Ray arrived at the apartment wearing black gloves and looked a little distraught when he got to his car) or maybe he told her to hang herself when she asked "what is it you want.. tell me anything".

Joimiaroxeu January 14, 2019 Share January 14, 2019 THIS. SHOW. Geez, I wonder if Abby had ever helped Ray and the boys bury some cops they'd killed? Nah, Bridget didn't get that "strength" from her mommy. Those are the Donovan genes. Did Sam seriously think she could just say she was sorry after what she did to Bridget? Girl, bye. Wonder if they knew the show was getting renewed when this episode was filmed? I think it could've been the show finale. I'm going to call this the best episode of Ray Donovan ever. Ray (with an assist from Lena) kicked all the ass and took all the names. Except for the mayor's, anyway. Quote Sandy's shrubs are so high the neighbors can't see what's going on? Yes, and apparently they block sound and smells too. Yikes. Quote When Ray and her were talking, I thought they were going get into bed. She almost got his daughter raped and killed. Ray's bad off mentally but likely not that bad. Not unless he was going to kill her in bed. 3 Link to comment

Here's a question - there was a woman outside Sam's apartment. We saw her several times. I expected her to have some role in some of the goings on, even if it's just to tell Ray/Lena what she saw.

crookedjackson44 January 14, 2019 Share January 14, 2019 Well, I studied James Joyce in college, so any mention of his work gets a shoutout from me. Plus, the ending of The Dead fits well with the montage of the living and the dead, though that stuff hanging on Ray's face sure wasn't snow. Like everyone else, I am mystified that folks in Queens are upset about their neighbor running a chainsaw all night, and floodlights in the backyard, too. I hope this show returns to LA next season. NYC is just not the place for it. I was constantly amazed how these family members knew spots all over the five boroughs (meet me on Constance St.), having not lived there previously. Anyone I've met from the City knows their neighborhood, maybe their borough, but are lost like any other person elsewhere. 5 Link to comment

I was born there and lived there for more than 50 years. Once you leave your neighborhood, especially Staten Island, for parts unknown you are at the mercy of maps or asking directions, etc. Also, it seems that Ray never had to look for a parking spot while driving in Manhattan, which is a near impossibility. 8 Link to comment

Bannon January 14, 2019 Share January 14, 2019 The first 5-10 minutes were laugh out loud funny, and it's great that it isn't clear whether that was the writers' intent. On some level, I really respect writers who deliberately decide to abandon any effort at continuity, whether it be continuity of character (Bridget!?) geography, or events, along with completely ignoring any elements of how the world operates (will somebody on this show ever stage a murder as a suicide in a hotel or high end condo building with security cameras?) or logic itself (if they have the time to dismember bodies.and the ability to dispose some parts at sea, why are they burying any parts in a backyard?), and just move from scene to scene, writing whatever they want. 1 Link to comment

For people (The Donovans for instance) who didn't grow up there they may not know the distinction between the different counties and boroughs. As I said in my post I may have missed the specific reference to Long Island and Queens. Frankly, my recollection is that the first time they discussed where the Sandy lived they said Long Island.

Taget January 15, 2019 Share January 15, 2019 (edited) I was skeptical about the move to NYC but by episode 2 I was excited and pleased by it. The show had lost it's way since season 1. Everyone was a bunch of sad sacks damaged beyond repair who made the show tedious to watch. I call it Party of Five syndrome where you weigh everyone down with so many problems that the show just becomes too unwieldy and just too plain dreary to watch. You actively rooted for characters to just be put out of their misery. Moving to NYC was a nice reset. Mac was a great addition who filled the badly needed void created by the departure of Ezra. The friend who would give a little bit of stability and empathy for Ray. And he filled the role of Ari as the sidekick. He was trouble but not Armenian mob raining down hell trouble. He even had some friends in a Staten Island bar to hang out with. Back to the old show where it was a guy doing a dirty job but still tried imperfectly to maintain a normal respectable family and life. Terry no longer had the shakes and had his gym again. No longer a miserable sack you were kinda waiting to just drop dead. Yeah Bunch was still a sad sack. But hey he had some good road hijinx with his dad. And the Bridget/Connor story lines I thought would bring in a very needed plot line and realization for Ray. That he has hurt his children and brought them pain through his own shady dealings just as his dad did with his children. And maybe it was time to not only forgive his dad but stopping repeating some of his dad's worst mistakes. Bridget of course still has her type. A drug dealer and/or sexual predator. But hey, everyone has a type. And at least Ray seemed smart enough to know it was counterproductive to get in the way this time. Maybe this was a show that could reset itself and stabilize itself. Jettisoning a lot of it's old baggage and starting over again in NYC with a less dramatic but still interesting storyline centered around the Mayor's race. Less is often more. And then the show went off the deep end in the last few episodes and proved me very very wrong. Everyone is even more miserable and depressed. Again I find myself cheering for Bunchy and Terry to die whenever they are in danger because they just seemed way too damaged to go on. And poor Smitty. The kid thought, "Hey. This girl seems sweet. A respectable clean cut girl who I should clean up for. She doesn't deserve to be around all the stupid dangers a low level drug dealer is exposed to. " Sorry kid. You were conned. Or should i say "Donovan'd." I know she is pretty hot. Looks remarkably like this girl who guest starred on Mad Men. Kerris Dorsey I think. But you just saw her and two generations of her family murder a bunch of cops and saw off their heads. You saw her personally chopping off a human head with a chainsaw. Run. No I mean it. RUN!!!!!!! And one last thing. How many clients are actually better off after hiring Ray? I know there are some. But there are enough who end up strung up in their apartments hanging lifelessly that I would honestly recommend any person looking for a fixer to just hire someone else.

CallMeRay January 15, 2019 Share January 15, 2019 Was wondering that since now all the copkiller-fugitive-felon family members are under one roof, with no cash, can't get jobs, won't another slew of new robberies and kidnappings occur? Also, do you think the 3 million in cash was still in Sam's apartment, and Ray now has that? 1 Link to comment

He did it the same way he killed the guy last season and with a nod to Lena's girlfriend. Lena went back to the funeral home presumably to tell her dead girlfriend she made it happen that her killer is no longer. My favourite characters this season, Aunt Sandy, Mac and Dr Aiyot - all of them scene stealers and just fantastic. Alda is so good, he's seamless. I'm sorry that we only get one season of Dommick Lombardozzi. he was brilliant as the conflicted cop in way too deep.

sadie January 17, 2019 Share January 17, 2019 I enjoyed this ep more than the entire rest of the season. Finally we’re at least back to Ray taking fucking names and getting it done. Yes he was all kinds of messed up but he knew his mission and he settled his scores Ray Donavan style. Seeing Sam hanging was some satisfying tv and letting Lena take out the rat bastard that killed her girlfriend was aces! I was a bit perplexed that Bridget all of a sudden became Dexter but whatevs, at least it’s better than sniveling in a corner (yes I’m looking at you useless boyfriend whatever his name is). I like watching the Donavan’s band together with a common purpose and Aunt Sandy is my new spirit animal. I hope we can get back to Ray the fixer vs Ray the mental patient. 2 Link to comment

pfk505 January 19, 2019 Share January 19, 2019 Loved every minute of it (except that interminable recap intro). Watching the corpse dismembering shenanigans is the hardest I've laughed at this show since the piss jars back in season 4. Sandy is the absolute fucking best, she better be back next season. For all of you folks still snarking over this show - it's SO much more enjoyable when you're half in the bag. That's the kind of show this is. On a more serious note I thought Jon Voight gave a fantastic performance. He actually made me feel something for Mickey. Lying or not he loves his family in his own way. What a character. 1 Link to comment

tvfanatic13 March 12, 2019 Share March 12, 2019 Late to the game. Truly missed Avi this season but a solid 7/10 season. And living in NY I can tell you that there is NO WAY that they could just pull up in front of wherever they were going. See you all next season. Link to comment
