Ray Donovan: Walk This Way (2014)
Season 2, Episode 7
10/10
Brilliant observing of a totally dysfunctional family
10 December 2016
Warning: Spoilers
This was one of the best Ray Donovan episodes yet. The writer(s) have brilliantly caught in how unsolved conflicts build up between members of this family, how anger and hurt grow in combination with selfishness and narcissism and now finally the bomb explodes on a forced birthday party for 14-year old Conner. Anybody who comes from a only half-dysfunctional family background will probably find this extraordinarily good. This episode shows why the word family doesn't necessarily mean your blood -related family really is what your family is supposed to be. And what happens over and over again if you don't find the strength to sever ties with such people, family or not. Brilliantly observed by the writers, brilliantly played by the actors, and yes let's be honest, it is a bit unfair that Liev Schreiber doesn't only look and sound good, he can even dance.;)
