Ain’t nobody got time for that
It doesn't seem like this show gets a lot of attention and I'm not sure why. Personally, I think it is one of the best TV series going. Solid cast (Liev Schreiber, Jon Voight, Hank Azaria, etc.) and the plot lines have been very entertaining thus far.

Anyone else a fan of the show?
 
South Boston guy that moves to LA and becomes a fixer. Liev absolutely dominates the role.

Here is the description from IMDB:

"Ray Donovan is a "fixer" for Hollywood's elite. He is the go-to guy that the city's celebrities, athletes and business moguls call to make their problems disappear. It's a much more lucrative job than his previous work as a ruthless South Boston thug, vaulting him within reach of the truly wealthy and powerful. But no amount of money or the expensive things it can buy can completely mask Ray's past, a past that continues to haunt him with troubled brothers always calling and his father's recent release from 20 years spent in prison. Now a free man, Ray's father, Mickey, arrives in Los Angeles to get what he feels is rightfully his. Mickey's desire to reconnect and settle old scores with his family -- including Ray's wife and kids, who have never met the family's patriarch and are anxious to get to know him -- threatens to destroy everything Ray has built for himself."

To be honest, the description accurately describes the first season, but does not do the rest of the series justice. The writers have done an amazing job developing the characters as the show has progressed. It has everything. Watch the first few and you'll be hooked.
