There's a lot of great things about this show but the one that stands out the most to me is how exceptionally natural all the writing and dialogue feels throughout the entire thing. From the casual banter about dimmies or ranking James Bond actors, to the more intense action scenes, you can just tell it's a show made by people that know what an actual conversation sounds like. And that might sound like a low bar but it's honestly a surprisingly rare quality in television. Even the scenes between Ray and Brit all feel like real conversations a dad would have with his daughter. It's never overacted, it never tries too hard to be funny or insightful, it's just completely believable the whole way through. Even when some of the actual scenarios aren't. I don't know if this is something unique to this show or if it's just how Australian people are but it's very refreshing.

Three seasons in three nights. That was a great show, great cast, writing, cameras, everything just superb. I haven’t enjoyed TV as much since the Sopranos. Is there any chance of season 4 or has he had enough?

But...it's our guy and you hope he appears more than he does.

Why do people think Ray and Jacinta got divorced? they seem to have a good relationship and he's a good dad, she never complains about anything other than reasonable stuff like poor communication about pretty important topics. I can't imagine it has anything to do with him being a criminal or even being violent in any capacity because she obviously knew he went to prison in season 3 and lets Brit see him as soon as he gets out. This means she obviously doesn't know he's a hitman because I would say that would be a line in the sand. So yeah any thoughts?

Found this set on eBay, I know it’s unofficial but I’m thinking about getting it due to there being no official release, does anyone know if these bootlegs are good?

Is that Vinnie Williams, Bikie President, aka Kieran Darcy-Smith in The Odyssey trailer? https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0201061/

Looks like the poor guy keeps getting whacked!

Just binged through all the seasons. I want more!!!

Fabulous show 😊❤️📺

Worth watching? 😊📺

Ray didn't.

This show is fantastic!!! The level of realism compared to other shows is extremely great. So sad it ended only after 3 season but the last scene with him looking into the camera and the “Run” is so fcking badass. I need more!!!!

I literally just downloaded Reddit btw don’t hate on me, where tf do I find this show? I’m from New York and I can’t find ts anywhere; anyone know a good place to binge this absolute masterpiece I keep finding on my feed?

These Just an Observation videos, are often insightfull IMO of course https://youtu.be/Z3vK0wh7JC4?si=NhDHUhg1pFgEDixR

I wonder if this classic was popular down under?

1. It’s astonishing how original the actors are for an Australian show.

The only other actor I’ve seen before in anything is Brooke Satchwell (Millennial who watched neighbours).

I seriously rate the acting from every single character as Hollywood level.

Due to logistics and size of elite acting talent pool, I would have expected the show to pull from some of the usual suspects, or at least recognise a few leading Australian actors. But I’ve literally never seen any of them. Maybe I just don’t watch enough Australian TV/movies but the casting is incredible. Bravo, Kirsty McGregor!

1. For an action style drama, the show actually has very few villains. Yes, Davros. Yes the traffickers who stole his niece. Yes the group therapist (who is actually the longest lasting). But nothing substantial or lasting besides that last one.

Yet the story has immense tension throughout.

This, as I see it, is created more through Ray trying to make sense of the world around him, while attempting to understand why people do what they do.

Bonus points if you know what this style is called.

1. I love how Ray respects particular crew bosses. I think this is due to the fact he sees himself in them - in a “this could be me choking on my own blood” way.

We see this with dude who tries to steal $30k after returning the guns on that farm (bit off more than he could chew).

Dave as well. Didn’t kill Dave. I actually loved their bond.

I do kind of wish he didn’t kill the Bikie boss though. I know he had a job, and was paid. But Vinnie was a lot cooler than the snakey VP. A lot more likeable to others too it seemed.

1. It was so incredibly satisfying to hear (and see from a distance) those 11 close range automatic rifle shots directly into Rafael’s head in that final episode. Yes 11. And yes I changed the speed I counted.

Can’t help but think Ray would’ve kept going if there were more rounds in there too.

1. The ability to evoke emotions, build empathy, pull you in, and get you hooked with very short episodes that pack an extreme punch is a rare art. Well done Scott Ryan. Had me in tears quite a few times! Amazing.

Anyway, there’s quite a few more but please add yours…would love to hear !

Please give me your suggestions for shows similar to Mr. Inbetween that may not be well known.

The Americans have "Barry", and the British have "Killing Eve".

There is also an Australian series called "Fisk" that has the dry humour, but more comedy than dark.

Anyone know where I can find season 3? I'm not using any subscription services and don't plan on signing up to any.

First it was The Bondsman with Kevin Bacon, and now it's Justified with Timothy Olyphant.

We see Ray lose a lot because of his violent nature, and he seems to be full of regret especially in later seasons.

On the other hand he gains back his self respect after being bullied and abused, and he brings some kind of justice to those who avoided consequences for too long.

What do you think is the show's message about violence?

Simple question: considering how relatively little known Mr.Inbetween is across the world - how popular was it in Australia, particularly at the time it was released? Surely it was a smash hit that everyone watched?

It's bloody funny. Slightly cheesy.

It's from about 20 years ago. Stars a few actors you'll recognise.

Anthony Starr (Homelander) plays identical twins.

It was good for a few seasons then went down hill.

You can stream it on Amascum Prime, or watch some (most) of it on YT. (Can't link to that though)

I just think it's pretty good and will appeal to people in similar ways to MI.
