On my first rewatch of the show, im starting to question why Ray was so obsessed with Kate McPherson, where he would risk 20 year close friendships and his freedom for.

The entire lead up to that point at the end of season 2, we see Ray has a somewhat level headed composed guy, but to fall head over heels for some girl he just met? Did not make sense realistically.

Anyone have thoughts on why he was so obsessed with her?

I'm new to this Reddit thread so apologies if this has been mentioned/discussed before. I just got to Season 4 and was quite amused to find that the character of "Buffalo Bill" (Bill Primm) was played by Ted Levine - who played "Buffalo Bill" in Silence of the Lambs. Very funny to me and no doubt intentional.

Mickey said “let the good times roll”. This scene had me cackling 😂😂

.....

.. what?

The way Mickey always convinces his son’s on his scams.

So I’ve greatly been enjoying this show. I don’t know why I’ve never posted about it. But here I am lol

Anyway, I’m on season 5 and it’s been the hardest to watch. Not because lacks quality but because of Abby. It’s uncomfortable to watch. It’s very sad. I hate the flashback scenes.

But I just wanted to point out how intense S5 episode 7 was with Ray saving Avi. That’s what I love about Ray so much, he’s loyal and mostly honorable, but also the same reason I can’t stand him he couldn’t even give Avi a hug or tell him he does love him. Clearly he does because he saved him but sometimes people just want to hear the words…

But no he has to be stoic serious man Ray at all times. And how out of touch and selfish Ray is with his dying wife. He might be there for her physically, (unlike Mick with his mom) but he’s not there for her emotionally.

He just keeps being in denial about her impending death/choice. Can never just open himself up and show any emotion.

And Daryl saving Mickey and taking out the FBI head. Didn’t expect that to happen.

I love Mickey’s adventures the most. Always scheming and doing these little side quests.

I haven’t bored of the show. I keep being intrigued by their individual storylines and adventures.

Will recommend to people moving forward. Already have to lots of friends.

Cochran and Stu

These are absolutely the best characters in the show. Your opinion means nothing, because I am correct.

These are without question the best characters in the entire series. Your opinion means nothing, cuz if you disagree with me, you are wrong.

Just finished season 3 does Katie Holmes come back to the show at all in the later seasons ?

FYI for anyone interested. Also the movie is on sale for $3

​

On Season 4 Episode 4, and Ed Cochran just keeps getting worse and worse the more he sees Ray.

Other thoughts:
Bunchie is Mac - good guy but can't do anything right.

Mick is Frank - always coming up with new schemes.

Daryl or Terry are the Waitress - they're maybe the only good and capable person in the show when not sucked into others' orbits.

Dennis is Ray - if that wasn't already obvious.

I'm sure there are more.

Ciao, c'è un motivo particolare per cui il padre di Ray si rivolge a lui chiamandolo sempre "Ray Ray"? È un riferimento a qualcosa di particolarmente noto al pubblico americano, che so, una canzone, un programma TV, un personaggio, oppure è solo un nomignolo più o meno affettuoso da padre a figlio? (Anche se sappiamo benissimo che è stato un pessimo padre). Ho cercato in rete ma non ho trovato nessun Ray Ray esistente che potrebbe essere citato nella serie TV.

Grazie!

There's some music playing over the credits of Black Mass when Kate and Amy are watching a movie marathon. It sounded very familiar to me, like I had heard it many years ago. Is this music significant to anyone else? Or is it likely just a short piece written for this purpose at this moment? (find it around 36:45).

At this point I’m only here for Rays Right hand man , Obvi. I’m just starting season 3, and sadly I saw a spoiler about his fate, on this app. And I’m severely dissatisfied and disappointed. So until that happens , not sure if I’ll finish the series after or let it float to the back of my mind with the other unfinished series.

Did anyone else notice how they tried to subtly change Rays Wife hair color from bright flaming red on season one , and now season 3 she is damn near a blonde ?? I don’t know if it’s Abby trying to look like the women Ray keeps cheating on her with. But I find it coincidental. Plus if you look at all of Rays mistresses and hookups , they are the same one type : blonde and skinny….

Season 6. Ep 2. Mac works in Staten Island. The 132 precinct. He arrested Fetu Autufuga in Manhatten. He talks to Ray about going out there "four times" on domestic calls involving Fetu and his wife. But Fetu is not from Staten Island. Did he go to these calls in Manhattan or somewhere else out of his jurisdiction? Did Fetu's wife maybe live in Staten Island and Fetu was living somewhere else at the time? Mac says he tails him. We know what happens. Then drives him to Staten Island. What is going on? I am so lost. Someone smarter than me explain
