What I love most about Ray is that he lives by his own moral code. Which is absolute. He didn't shoot the last guy and wasn't even mad at him as Ray knew he was just doing a job. The other guys were just out to rip him off and kill him, so they didn't deserve a second chance.
Have you seen the last series when he’s talking to the journalist bout the difference between being a soldier & the private sector lol! His logic is bang on. Also his daughters perspective on jack n the bean stalk is brilliant
It’s not even really a second chance they’re in the same business. He understands he would’ve did the exact same thing in his position “nothing personal” Also with the biker guy vinny, he says to ray that if he tries to buy his way out of it ray will probably just keep the money & kill him anyway & ray admits he would!
@oi nah him & his mate Nash Edgerton (the one with the piss pornos lol) direct it, acts in it. & Scott Ryan writes it, acts in it. Produced on a very low budget I believe #dreamteam
In the show right after this scene he goes: "what was that?" And Ray says "Frag rigged to the lid", and the other bloke goes "you're a sneaky f*cker Ray".
I love how there were no hard feelings between the two hitmen at the end. Neither wishes to kill the other with no fee involved. Can’t wait to get stuck into S2.
Production team gets more out of a 30 minute time slot then any other show. Every character is fully developed. Fantastic plots, characters, settings. Good luck in future
You are so right, I found this show last night, and his acting is absolutely raw and character is perfection. Genuinely a masterpiece. All of the acting was incredibly powerful, writing and directing amazing, the wide camera angles and sound quality, everything is literally perfect. I think Mr Inbetween and Breaking Bad nailed everything.
I mean, it's a great narrative from what I've seen of it, but Barry did pretty great with 30 minutes, also. It's a bit dis-inclusive to say this show is better than EVERY show.
I discovered this show a week ago & watched all 3 series in about 4 days. What I love about the writing is how Ray isn't necessarily always the default "good guy" or hardest, smartest or most ruthless person. He's a decent bloke with a family, loves his mates, but he's absolutely resigned to his own mortality and will go down swinging and explode on a hair trigger, and basically can't change his ways even if he wants to. He sees the woman he adores leave him and get pregnant with another man and is still happy and genuine for her. The way Ryan wrote that character around his brother with motor-neurone disease and his daughter and her vulnerabilities was so, so good. I really hope we see more from him in future.
@@telephonic that sounds like bliss! I had to wait years between seasons😩 even when new seasons were being advertised, it didn’t hit Scotland till much later. But I have binged all 3seasons a coupla times since & I actually picked up a coupla things I missed first time round. I didn’t catch that Britney’s step dad was called Quentin which ain’t a “blokey bloke” name lol. I didn’t realise right away it was Dave who was with Vinnie when Ray was in full combat gear (that actually had me in stitches) in the woods & tried to shoot Vinnie at his parents home. That’s why he hesitated. I loved the chemistry between Ray & Dave from the minute Dave grabbed Ray for Davros. That whole scenario with the strong box & Ray digging his foxhole, was brilliant! I wish he’d never went through with Vinnies’ hit though. I wish he’d turned that one around, that dude was pretty cool & he died well! That “see you in your dreams” hurt my heart a wee bit. It’s an absolute cracker of a show with stellar acting & that dark twisted humour. Canny whack the Aussie humour.
"He sees the woman he adores leave him and get pregnant with another man and is still happy and genuine for her. " yeap any other writer would have wrote a fight scenario, where he be pissed off or stalks the girl's bf... but not this one
The irony is at the show was worse than everything that you guys stated. It was so bad. It got canceled. It was literally the lowest rated show on its channels that it was hosted on. It went through 5 different streaming services Roku passed on this show If they say no to you that's sad And I'm confused on why we're supposed to be rooting for this guy. I mean, there's literally an episode in this season where he murders A man's wife and family and was getting off on it But we're supposed to feel bad for him because he is a father I don't know why we watch shows that glorify. Murderers and serial killers and make them likeable Seriously dexter,You,this show, barry, hannible,Dahmer,bundy, wicked city, etc etc Do shows try to make us sympathize with the character who is a horrible human being and shouldn't be glorified
Never once did I say I was either rooting for him, or had sympathy for him. All I said was in my humble opinion how well the programme was made, and how hollywood, (and US TV producers) have a tendency to take foreign shows or concepts, and despite their great wealth, often make them worse. Also, and this is very, very important, he's a fictional character. Most of us can differentiate between real life and fiction. @@wellthen.......9384
After the grenade goes off, when everyone is on the ground with their ears ringing, as Ray gets up, before he grabs Dave's pistol he pushes down on Dave's leg to let him know to stay down. Bloody brilliant writing and acting. Ray and Dave become firm friends later on. And Dave's death really hurt Ray. A lot.
You can tell in the ending that Dave's death left Ray permanently scarred. And then his other friend not tipping him off probably made him feel super isolated in the end
Rewatching this series, you notice SO many subtle differences. Look at this scene, when Bobby goes to get the safe out of the car, the camera flicks to Ray. First time round I never noticed it, just a man contemplating his own death. Now, I notice his trademark smile. Foreboding for sure!
That's an amazing detail actually. I had this thought this was cheapening Ray a bit, since his escape plan was such a stretch to work out, it made his character all knowing and hinted at plot armor. That detail changes my perspective entirely. He wasn't being a mastermind manipulating this event to happen... he was resigned to death for a minute there. That reaction was "oh, maybe I will make it out of here" instead of "My masterplan is falling into place. Mustache twirl!" I'm not sure if I'm explaining what I mean well, but that detail gives a lot more nuance to this scene
Notice at 2:46, Dave seems to notice Ray is starting to dig a bit quicker and looks down at Ray. He knows something is gonna happen, but until he's told, probably had no idea what 😅
This series is a true gem that mostly flew under the radar, the only disappointing thing is there's only 3 seasons. Love that Ray is more than happy to start digging as he knows he'll have to do it eventually anyway.
I agree with all the things you said, but I feel that there only being 3 seasons is kind of a blessing in this day and age where most shows get milked until they're bled dry from any soul that was in them.
@@DynastyLuminous46 Sadly all too true. Many once great series over extend themselves and become a shadow of what they were. The fourth wall break of the final scene will always stay with me.
@@popmostic I’ve just watched S2 ep3&4 That was hysterical when his wee girl caught them banging away & the conversation that came after it!! What a show. Totally Appeals to my sense of humor. I’m hoping that hit man makes an appearance again & he should’ve called his son Ray, a blokey bloke name 😂😂😂
@@MrBrandonLaunah there’s actually way more good TV shows than movies currently. Barry, Mr Inbetween, Better Call Saul, Succession, The Boys. It’s a really good time for TV
The thing about this series is, they find ways to obtain guns, when we have some of the strictest gun laws in the world, it's amazing, how resourceful the underworld is here.
My favorite part of this scene is that Davros has a smug smile like he’s gonna be able to pull “Freddy’s family” and talk his way out in the split second before he’s shot
That’s one way of looking at it but I think his main principle is he judges people well who don’t abuse their power over him (or others), at the time they have power, and anybody who does do that is in for a bad time. When someone keeps him prisoner for a day and doesn’t slap him around or even verbally abuse him, he’s learned quite a lot about them at turbo speed

@@morrstunts boy my favorite underbellys are gold mile ,Carl Williams season, Tale of two cities. I’m not to keen on the others.

I knew nothing about this going on and I blitzed the three seasons over a weekend. I think it’s one of my top five series ever. The writing, directing the action sequences, the interpersonal relationships between characters even the daughter who’s definitely got his ‘personality quirks’ it’s just all fantastic. Be prepared for a roller coaster of emotions too! The brother and his ALS, Ray’s unshakable code about being bullied, his deep friendship with his high school buddy, by the last scene of the series you’re exhausted and yet you have a very good idea of how it ends without seeing or knowing it. I did find a copy here on YT of his movie which started this character called The Magician. If you watch in the series he’ll go see a mob boss who recognizes Ray and tells the son to be quiet because that was The Magician they just met! I’m happy he ended the series. He always knew exactly how long it was going to be and where it was going to end. Anything more would just be for the money. I encourage anyone who’s just randomly going through clips to not watch anymore and get onto Hulu and watch it. The episodes are only 25min which makes them perfect for binging lol
A hidden gem. First Wentworth now this. Australian tv is gold. I've only finished season 1 but I'm hooked. Apparently this show is based off a movie called the Magician that has same character Ray, written and directed by Scott Ryan (Ray)
Australian comedy is the greatest i swear...when Davos asked Ray how his doing and Ray did the same was fucking funny..."How u been mate"..."good good"..."Thats the way".....just a kid from SoCal
@@danielthompson2299 plastic explosive, like most high explosives doesn't detonate from heat. it needs a combination of heat and pressure in order to reach detonation velocity. its why soldiers in vietnam and other conflicts would take pieces of the explosives from their claymore mines and use them as a ration heater because it would just burn even when wet but there were problems when soldiers went to step/stomp out the flame when they were done using it.
How I wasn't aware of these series is a mystery. I came across Mr. Shoesmith only because I've seen some shorts on YT and the scene with an ice cream. I got sucked into it and watched it all in few days. Brilliant show, brilliant acting. Please, please do more series in the future. We want more Ray.
this is my favorite scene in any TV show ever. the safe is a rise ray uses in case he is captured. it plays out over a couple of episodes. it shows how smart ray is and how he is always planning ahead. it's funny because someone else in prior episodes offers a bunch of money to save themselves and Ray's like NAH. in your mind it's like "why not take the money and blast him anyway" this. this is why
This is why the scene where they go to kill the VP of the biker gang and he accepts going to dig up his 650k urked me. The only inconsistent thing in the show
ray knew that dave is a guy that can be useful and has a life just like himself. So he decided to not to kill him instead he recruited and gained his loyalty and trust with not killing him right there when he had the opportunity.
@@Cor214Long story short Pretty boy with long hair = mobster Guy digging = Ray (A hitman) Mobster wants Ray dead because Ray killed a bunch of his guys...Mobster steals Ray's safe,because Ray said it has 200K
Cut to short. Want a smoke was good, but it was pure magic when he rummaged through the pockets and tossed Davros keys to Dave. Could watch this show on repeat for decades and it would never get old.
What I love most about Ray is that he lives by his own moral code. Which is absolute. He didn't shoot the last guy and wasn't even mad at him as Ray knew he was just doing a job. The other guys were just out to rip him off and kill him, so they didn't deserve a second chance.

Also with the biker guy vinny, he says to ray that if he tries to buy his way out of it ray will probably just keep the money & kill him anyway & ray admits he would!
@@lyndsaycrawford good point.
He did not shoot Dave, because Dave apologized to him, and he was not afraid of those guys. Lion sees another lion, and they became friends
They became good colleagues until the last episode ending. I think that Ray saw that even Dave was old school and he had a code too.
Easily 1 of the most unknown and underrated shows EVER
@oi nah the guy who plays Ray is also the writer.
It is amazing.
@oi nah him & his mate Nash Edgerton (the one with the piss pornos lol) direct it, acts in it. & Scott Ryan writes it, acts in it. Produced on a very low budget I believe #dreamteam

@@lyndsaycrawford Nash Edgerton isn't the one with the piss porns, it's the brother who Ray threw through the window on Xmas.
I love that Ray piles the dirt in front of him to protect him from the blast.
did not notice that, nice
I was thinking that, I haven't watched the show fully, just clips and I saw that dirt pile and thought "very smart, he planned this whole thing."
Thats..... really clever.
In the show right after this scene he goes: "what was that?" And Ray says "Frag rigged to the lid", and the other bloke goes "you're a sneaky f*cker Ray".
Except he started the dirt pile way before the box was placed there

The guy playing Ray is not an actor. He's an ordinary bloke from Australia. He will never act again. This was a one shot deal. Legend!
He's definitely an actor/writer/director who had a "one-shot deal" in 2005 and then made a further 3 series from it 12 years later.
Ray is the man
This show is amazing.
A one eyed man now. He got Negan'd
A hidden gem. First Wentworth now this. Australian tv is gold. I've only finished season 1 but I'm hooked. Apparently this show is based off a movie called the Magician that has same character Ray, written and directed by Scott Ryan (Ray)
Aussie cunts
Australian comedy is the greatest i swear...when Davos asked Ray how his doing and Ray did the same was fucking funny..."How u been mate"..."good good"..."Thats the way".....just a kid from SoCal
It's so true i'm from France and i was not used to the aussie accent and slang but damn, nearly every lines of dialogue makes me laugh out loud
If you like Australian comedy, then I recommend watching this movie called "the castle" it's a national treasure
@@TJ-fe7rr I'm looking it up right now...
I heard socal was basically third world now.
Asking 'how you been' is comedy? Holy shit, we really are hopeless.
Should be up there with breaking bad and sopranos. So good.
Little things:
Guy is cutting the box open
Ray is digging faster than when he started, keeping an eye on the box.
I like how he put the pile of dirt between himself and the bomb, for some level of protection.
The question i have is....torch...bomb....torch didnt blow up the bomb but moving the side of box did?
@@danielthompson2299 plastic explosive, like most high explosives doesn't detonate from heat. it needs a combination of heat and pressure in order to reach detonation velocity. its why soldiers in vietnam and other conflicts would take pieces of the explosives from their claymore mines and use them as a ration heater because it would just burn even when wet but there were problems when soldiers went to step/stomp out the flame when they were done using it.
@@lewiscopland4568 he was digging a foxhole.
@@danielthompson2299 Bomb was a pressure activated device.
I love that Ray is not scared. He knows he's not the one dying today.
This show is the best thing you've never seen
"Want a smoke?"
Best line of the 2000s
Fabulous writing, terrific casting, stellar attention to detail. I blew through this entire show over a weekend.
*_TRUST !!_*
Half aussie
The facial acting is next level, honestly. Whoever cast this guy needs a raise.
How I wasn't aware of these series is a mystery. I came across Mr. Shoesmith only because I've seen some shorts on YT and the scene with an ice cream. I got sucked into it and watched it all in few days. Brilliant show, brilliant acting. Please, please do more series in the future. We want more Ray.
One of the BEST written shows ever made. It deserves so much more than it got.
this is my favorite scene in any TV show ever.
the safe is a rise ray uses in case he is captured. it plays out over a couple of episodes. it shows how smart ray is and how he is always planning ahead.
it's funny because someone else in prior episodes offers a bunch of money to save themselves and Ray's like NAH.
in your mind it's like "why not take the money and blast him anyway"
this. this is why
This is why the scene where they go to kill the VP of the biker gang and he accepts going to dig up his 650k urked me. The only inconsistent thing in the show
@@leighcarolan6429 yeah except in that situation Ray is not paid to clip him. When he is paid to kill the prez, he does not accept the money.
Masterpiece of a show. More seasons please
The dialogue with the biker and the buried money and Ray refusing to let him dig it up. Makes a lot more sense after this episode.
3:25 Ray touches dave’s leg on the way up like _you’re good man don’t worry_
Ray was grinning while digging the hole too funny
Please bring this show back. GREAT show.
2:18
Who smiles that they are getting killed and robbed besides ray gotta love the show for that 😂
When Ray flashes that smile, you better run for cover!
They need to make another series this outstanding .
Love how that davros is all friendly, and then his brother is mad at him!
Dave ended up owing Ray, and was faithful until his death.
I came on here trying to promote this. Finally, Aussie made gem of a series but I was three years too late
This is absolutely one of the best shows, ending of season 3 was so bad ass, Ray is a combo of a wolf and a rat you can’t kill him. Run
Somebody might die out here tonight, eh Dill?
And with that, their fate was sealed
The smile while digging a foxhole (Grave) is amazing
man I wish we could get a season 4 or a spin-off that would be nice , also poor bobby
The Magician (2005) Based on events prior to this show.
@@rado9230And the actor of Ray actually directed it
Loved Dave as soon as he showed up
I love it that Ray speeds up his digging when the safe arrives.
It’s funny thinking about how Ray thought ahead and had that rigged safe on standby in case he ever got kidnapped lmao
One of the best shows I've seen In a while.
Love that series Mr Inbetween
Yeah I’m giving this a watch. Every clip I’ve seen of this show is class
One of the best crim on crim scenes ever
love that he starts digging quicker once the "special" safe comes out of the car
"Oh fuck, oh fuck. I might actually make it out. Dig! Dig!"
This show is a masterpiece. It will forever be a sleeper that people stumble across and feel like they’ve just found buried treasure.
pure gem this show was
“I should have fucking clipped you.” That was so funny.😂
"you fuckin"
0:27 the way he smirks when asking Ray to dig a hole. As if he thinks he’s got one over on Ray is great
I like that when Ray accelerates digging the hole before the explosion 😂
This show was SOOOO good.
Brilliant series
ray knew that dave is a guy that can be useful and has a life just like himself. So he decided to not to kill him instead he recruited and gained his loyalty and trust with not killing him right there when he had the opportunity.
This show is bad-ass. Love it.
They got fragged. Great show. I've been seeing these clips on youtube and found the series on Hulu. Real good
Ray is some boy to dig a hole! They give him a shovel and in 2 minutes 44 seconds later he has a couple of wheel barrows worth out on the ground!
You do know this is a scene that isn’t in real time, yes? Have you heard of editing? Are you #notbright?
This is a hidden gem of a show
Wow i just noticed you can see ray smile we the dude goes to the car!
The background noise is perfect tinnitus
Best Aussie show ever made
This scene put me onto the show. No regrets. Amazing shit
This show will be like peaky blinders, unknown for a fee years then it will blow up and be declared one of the greatest shows of all time
@@Cor214Long story short
Pretty boy with long hair = mobster
Guy digging = Ray (A hitman)
Mobster wants Ray dead because Ray killed a bunch of his guys...Mobster steals Ray's safe,because Ray said it has 200K
Ray Shoesmith and the series is absolutely brilliant
Cut to short. Want a smoke was good, but it was pure magic when he rummaged through the pockets and tossed Davros keys to Dave. Could watch this show on repeat for decades and it would never get old.
its about time us Aussies made another good show
The red mystic ranger really didn’t know what to do with himself after the finale
When I saw this scene on RUclips I immediately tracked down the series and got me subscription to watch it.
Lol Davros went from tough guy to begging real fast 😂
And then they were friends for life.
I loved this show and was so disappointed when the series abruptly ended.
It's come back for series 3
I’m so sad and gutted it’s only 3 seasons! Wish it was more! Definitely looking forward to more of Scott Ryan’s stuff!
Great series. Finished it last week.
Bro holy fuck the red power ranger from mystic force is in this show, I thought i was trippin lol but Davros is Firass Dirani
I saw a clip on RUclips and liked it.... I randomly went into Hulu a month later and there it was. Safe to say I binged the GOD DAMN FUK out of it
“That not personal ray” saved his life 😂
And an unlikely friendship is born ❤
3:45 Too quick.
Face shot for a closed casket. Last thing his family will see is a monstrously deformed face
After the impact, it mushrooms and expands. Air gets pushed everywhere. Certain parts inflate to 300% normal size. Sometimes an eye pops out.
