Another one bites the dust ,just as this show was wrapping up for one proper series final it gets cancelled at the brink of conclusion.Hopefully they make a 2 hours final and be done with it
Daryll advises to Smitty to stay away from Mickey or he'd end up dead was a very cool piece of foreshadowing there. Gotta love a good inserted foreshadowing. I loved the irony of the song "You'll Never Walk Alone" yet every character in the series ends up being alone or is still alone and miserable in their own way. This was a very good episode, it brought closure in my opinion. Although the series as a whole could have been ended 2 seasons ago, but that's fine. Good job to Liev Schreiber for the astonishing work, he wrote and directed few episodes in the series too.
Man, Ray Donovan was a long wild ride. Can't believe they decided to cancel it back then after so much stuff was left in the air in this finale. Looking forward to seeing the movie.
"Who is dead" mystery is very similar to "Tulip" (3x08).

The flashbacks was the best addition to this season, getting to see the Donovan’s siblings lives back then made this season interesting. We finally saw Ray’s emotions and the backstory!
I don’t know why Ray lied to Molly, he always knew his sister was pregnant when she committed suicide. It was sad to see his realization who the father was and that he forced her to go to work at his house. Ray will need many more therapy sessions after this. But how come Mickey didn’t know his daughter was pregnant? I guess he really doesn’t care about his children, that’s the only way to explain this plot hole.
I wish Ray didn’t kill Sullivan so quickly, I would have loved to hear more than, “Back then...”
I’m glad Smitty is dead. He was so annoying.
“Every one of your children, Mick ... left alone to be preyed on by wild fucking animals.” Devastating. Mickey Donovan is one of worst tv father of all time. I don’t get why he is still alive. I understand that it’s great to have John Voight on your show but it’s just so ridiculous how Mickey keeps getting away.
I'm happy Daryll got his revenge but he shouldn’t just blame Mickey, it’s his fault that he believed him.
Wonder how long they can keep the show going without the Donovans going to prison. So many dead bodies.
