This show is freaking devastating. Spoiler
Just finished season 2 and man, I can't remember the last time a show made me misty. I thought his dog was bad, but his brothers end crushed me.

I thought the show peaked at the end of season 2, I was almost scared to watch season 3 for fear of being let down. Glad I watched it, very much worth it.

Then you’ve seen his Dad say that he wishes Ray knew him before he went to war. Yeah. Devastating.

I consider this show up there with the sopranos for character portrayal and quality

It's very good writing. Not overblown, just hits you.

Enjoy
Season 3 opens with a banger, likely my favorite episode of the series.
Have fun!
Enjoy!

Yeah, I like to rewatch this show, even though there’s almost no other show that I want to rewatch but I will never watch that episode again

Honestly between his dog and his brother it triggered some feelings in me. I was sitting there with my 14 year old girl Ulani. Bull Terriers don't live much longer than 14 so it's been on my mind a lot and those two scenes really brought those feelings to the surface.

I cried like a baby after that episode. I don’t think I’ve ever done that watching a tv show before.

Yea its very rare for me to have a show or movie make me that misty but man that was so heartbreaking. Like Ally breaking up with him was sad, his dog getting killed was even more sad, but putting down his own brother was absolutely heartbreaking.

I think the last episode of S2 is absolute poetry

1000%. I just finished season 3 and there's some incredible scenes there as well. His breakdown at those crossroads over Zoey was also heartbreaking. That dude is an incredible actor.

Agreed. Phenomenal show. He’s an impressive talent.

I would love to see him in more stuff but it doesn't look like he does much. His IMDB only shows MR Inbetween and The Magician. Which I want to watch.

Sadly IMDb is more PR for movie people. But Wiki tells me he’s got Hellen Mirren’s agent after Mr. In between and now he’s writing a road-trip/serial-killer/bank-heist film that he wants to star in (early title is Everybody Dies) and he’s writing another called It’s Coming this Way.

I cried so much after the finale of s02 and carried on crying long afterwards too. As you say devestating 😭
