What’s This TV Show About?
Airing on the Showtime cable channel, Ray Donovan stars Liev Schreiber, Alan Alda, Zach Grenier, Jon Voight, Dash Mihok, Eddie Marsan, Pooch Hall, Kerris Dorsey, and Graham Rogers. The series centers on professional fixer Ray Donovan (Schreiber), who’s working to be the man his family needs him to be. While he makes progress with Dr. Amiot (Alda), there are dangers from the past that require the Ray Donovan of old. Between NYC mayor Ed Feratti (Grenier), an unrelenting NYPD officer hunting for the truth and clients old and new, Ray struggles to find the balance between fixing for clients and fixing himself. And when Feratti’s corruption brings a piece of Mickey’s past (Voight) back to New York, Ray is forced to seek answers to long-buried questions.

What do you think? Were you hoping that the Ray Donovan TV show would be renewed for an eighth season? Are you sorry that Showtime cancelled this TV series, instead?
Would love for Ray Donavan to continue!
I’d be very disappointed if there wasn’t another season of Ray Donovan. I think that their family dynamic is spellbinding.Please keep it going until the wheels fall off!
Oh, My Days……..There is no way that you could cancel this show! This is the best show on television better than Walking Dead, How to Get Away with Murder just to name a couple even Power and I love those shows also. This show has everything, drama, suspense, action and even comedy. Jon Voight should get an oscar for his role. Please please please bring this back for season 8 and more after.
Don’t cancel Ray Donovan it’s a great show
Please do not cancel Ray Donovan. You cannot leave the loyal audience hanging without a Season 8. This is one of the best & most popular series and unfair to leave it to end with season 7, with no answers for us. Very frustrating . Please do not cancel this series.
Keep Ray Donavan going on Showtime. Want to see Season 8
Don’t cancel this one come on
You can’t cancel Ray Donovan it’s incomplete! People deserve a final season! Artistically to cancel it is wrong and I will cancel my showtime subscription if it’s done.

Love the show!
PLEASE PLEASE RENEW!! Best show on TV.
Keep Ray Donovan and get him back to L.A. and out of the NYC dump. Not sure how he’ll get out of the jackpot the weak snitch got him into. Hard to believe he wouldn’t have figured out that he was being recorded when that kid started being so specific about past crimes. Gangsters would talk in vague terms like “I feel bad about that stuff we did the other day”. NEVER would anyone talk about past criminal acts in such detail if at all, because they have no conscience and never regret anything … unless they get caught. Like… Read more »
