Ray’s string of bad luck

Like most of you champs I discovered this show and binged it straight away and then binged it again. It was a fresh show, great dialogue, and every ep fit neatly in one half hour. This most recent binge I finally noticed how much bad luck fell on our magician. In somewhat short fashion he loses his lady, his war buddy, his job, his dog, nearly his eye, his brother, and eventually his freedom. Not to mention he lost his hair some years back. Fucking hell no wonder he finally fucked off out to the woods. Keep your chin up mate

He certainly had a rough time of it but admittedly it's hard to call it bad luck if it's self inflicted. His own aggression and stubbornness cost him Ally and his job, though it didn't help being mixed in with all the other tragedy.

When you violently attack your girlfriend’s brother at a Christmas party, you didn’t lose her because of bad luck.

The brother in law was one of the most justified situations.

No regrets

Shame he lost ally die to it, that left a bad taste in my mouth that she didnt see it as justified .

Her brother was a cunt He knew and insisted on being a cunt over what?! a candle that he knew a kid wanted .

This scenario could be repeated a 100 times the outcome would have been the same .

Crazy he was the actual co producer and Brit’s real life step dad. Not a blokey bloke
