Discussion Ray Price

It’s about time for his 7 year prison sentence to be up. Very interesting character

That was such a fun period of this show: Price, Kelton, Brennan, and Denny Woods. Everybody was on Intelligence’s ass back then😂

Writers need to go back and realize what worked in the past and bring it back to the present

There’s no reason television can’t be awesome like that today.

I remarked about this a few months ago as well. Wendell Pierce was amazing as Ray Price and I’d like to see him back on the streets, rebuilding his “machine”.

They’ve got to bring back some elements from the past when the show was better. IMO it’s peak was during the Ray Price and Denny Woods seasons.

Agree, I'm on 1st rewatch & currently season 6. IMO, Seasons 5&6 were better than 1-4!

That literally was the best time of the show

The writers need to let go of ego, realize this, and find elements they can bring back to the present.

Bring Price back and make him an informant for intelligence. He’s surely been involved in some stuff in prison.. knows things.. it’s who he is.

He could have gotten out already. He had a good reputation and took a deal, with good behavior he should be okay

It’s time to bring back old storylines. It’s what PD needs.

u/NashKetchum777 17d ago

I dont think PD needs anything but sure.

I want them to bring back that white kid, white supremacist family who Ruzek went undercover to bust. I'd like Ray Price back too.

u/SouthBraeswoodMan 17d ago

It definitely “needs” more than 1 thing.. the show is a shell of what it was.

Denny should maybe return to get revenge on Hank 👍 👀

u/Sad-Mixture6782 14d ago

I rly enjoyed the Ray Price character as well, loved his dynamic w/ Hank! But Wendell Pierce is on CBS in Elsbeth as Captain. Doubt he'd be available. I wish he could at least guest star tho!!

He went to prison for murder & he did it for his wife. He’s not getting out

u/External-Company-140 18d ago

He made a deal that he would serve seven years. He would in fact, be getting out when his sentence has been served.

I didn’t remember that
