I'm off work today, so I downloaded "Ray Donovan" and have now watched the first three episodes. I'm hooked, and will watch the rest. Liev Schreiber is excellent, Paula Malcomson is always excellent, and there are quite a few familiar faces popping up among the rest of the cast, such as Steven Bauer and Elliot Gould. Still, it's Jon Voight who kinda steals the show, as the most despicable human being you're ever likely to see onscreen. I can only imagine that he'll get worse. Good to chat with people about TV and movies they've actually seen. Much better than dealing with people who know nothing whatsoever about them, but repost month-old articles we've all already read before to make it seem as if they do. :-)
