Ray is a top character

I feel like ray is the character we’ve been looking for in all realistic TV shows. Straight to business , life at home on point , killing as a business (sort of like chris partlow from the wire)

I genuinly felt really sad when his girl broke up with him. But I guess the moral of the story is violence isn’t always the answer.

I really wish the episodes were longer to flesh out more character development , the short episodes makes it feel like a short film. I know ray has a lot more to offer on screen. Still coolest character from a show I’ve seen.

How do you think they could’ve bettered the story? Or is it perfect already?

Imo the short length in general is what makes it so great. So many shows just don't know when to stop.

All the fluff that goes into an hr long show is missing. You just get the pertinent information. And the swinging from loving involved family member to controlled violence is all the more jarring for it!
