Bad news folks.

FX’s ‘Mr Inbetween’ Not Returning After Season 3

Scott Ryan’s “Mr Inbetween,” which will premiere its third season on May 25 on FX, is ending with this upcoming season.

The half-hour series, created by, written and starring Scott Ryan and directed by Nash Edgerton, centers on Ryan’s Ray Shoesmith, a criminal for hire who collects debts, drugs and guns, and sometimes “takes care of people” in a permanent way as he juggles being a dad and taking care of an aging parent.

In the third season of “Mr Inbetween,” Ray will deal with the loss of Bruce, figure out how to care for his aging father Bill (Kenny Graham), and be faced with his daughter Brittany (Chika Yasumura) possibly discovering who he really is. Ray is now working freelance and feeling isolated after severing ties with former boss and confidant Freddy (Damon Herriman), but with business booming, a new connection with kingpin Rafael (Jeremy Sims) compounds Ray’s problems. The season will also see him connect with new colleague Zoe (Emily Barclay), though “unexpected tragedy” will have Ray questioning his career and his ethics. According to the network’s description of the upcoming storyline: “Fellow underworld figures dub Ray ‘The Magician’ for his uncanny ability to make things disappear. As his family crumbles, emotions rage and violence escalates, the blood on his hands may finally cause the magic wand to slip.”

Season 3 will be nine episodes long, with the premiere including the first two episodes, and each successive episode airing in following weeks. “Mr Inbetween” is executive produced by Edgerton, Ryan, and Michele Bennett; the series was shot in Australia and is produced by Blue-Tongue Films and Pariah Productions in association with FX Productions.

At least there’s a third season. Watched the first two after reading about it here. I like the lighter moments sandwiched between the violence, like Ray’s daughter catching him and the girlfriend in the act and the subsequent birds and the bees talk. I was crying

It's such a great series. I hope they don't kill Ray in the finale. Netflix or Amazon needs to pick this up. Maybe a sequel where his daughter becomes a magician?

Do not

fuck

with

Ray

I like how both Ray and later his buddy took time out from kicking the guy’s ass who fucked with Ray’s side mirror to point out there was no painted pedestrian crossing

Ray is such a badass. He goes from 0 to 200 and back to 0 in a blink.

Preview for next week looks great.

I always try to avoid the previews, but I saw something that gave me the idea that next week's episode involves the daughter quite a bit. 

I'm enjoying her character arc - the quick thinking of how to conceal the bullet hole in the wall, her noticing the "stakeout," etc. 

I'd rather just have a few more seasons of the show, and I don't have any reason to think this would ever happen, but a spinoff with his daughter getting into criminal mischief while juggling school could be entertaining.

Not much action this episode, but a lot of story building for the finale. Only 2 episodes left.

[The Dude 1247]

Well shit. It’s over. I really liked this show.
 

I thought the finale was a pretty good ending. Certainly left the door open, but Scott Ryan said in interviews he’s done with this character

[Prepuce of Doom 21112]

I liked the ending. 

I will miss this show.

That deadly smile was a great note to end on.
