I never thought I’d ever see a television series of the calibre of the Wire, the Sopranos or BB again. Mr In-Between was that and Australian too. Scott Ryan really IS a magician.
If you've never watched the series you absolutely need to. Ray is one of the best examples there is of a man balancing the most extreme character elements of his personality. He's like a shark living happily in a tropical fish tank, you know that one day it'll go bad you just don't know when or quite how bad until it happens!
The trouble with Mr. Inbetween. There's so much violence sooner or latter ( If his pledge of harming women) would have crumbled. If the series continued.
Ray’s smile isn’t that scary. His scowl is infinitely more terrifying, the look he gave that guy who kept the little girl in a suitcase made me shiver.
I haven't even watched TV in years. I caught one episode while visiting a friend, and had to watch every single episode after that. It's one of the best programs ever IMO. He's equal parts everyman and ultra intense hitman.
@@RevShifty we always think goons just sit around playing cards till it's time to do goon stuff. This show highlights that even Ray has a 'normal' life in the background
This scene does a really good job of reminding the viewer that Ray is not a vigilante or an anti-hero, he's a killer. There aren't many other 'badass' archetypes in TV that would hang a man for defrauding someone else, even if the victim committed suicide afterward. Ray? He'll hang a thief and walk out with a smile.
@@boomson3082 I'm smiling at you like Ray smiles...picture that...because I know that stuff is not living in my body rent free...it's not causing cancer cells, certain blood clots or heart issues now and in the future. . Ray smiles because he knows he's not the one with problems...
Was totally expecting Ray to take some sips out of the acid bottle on the way out to mess with the guy's head that it was actually a water body with a fake label.
@@Intheknow12 Them as well but let's be honest the ones I mentioned are the worst by far. Conservatives and christians dont burn down cities and try and shut down anyone who has a different opinion. Some religious people though are dangerous to the west but thats a whole different subject. I have no affiliation with any politics as they are all terrible and corrupt. Anyone who thinks a left leaning politician is any better than a right leaning politician needs to have a word with themselves and wake up.
dam what a cliff hanger. her turns up with gloves on and smiles at you just give him the money and don't talk shit or he leaves you hanging around to think about it and he still gets the money.
@crisdeanmackenzie PET bottles can be clear, and polyethylene is safe to store HF acid in. I can’t swear that’s an accurate labeling, and I can’t swear I’d know the difference between a plastic bottle and glass bottle hitting the table, but you have to remember these are artistic choices for the scene to communicate to the audience. The bottle hitting the table punctuates the scene like an exclamation point, which shows up on the scammers face. Then the shot reverses so we can see the label on the bottle. It builds dramatic tension that might not otherwise be understood if absolutely true to life choices were made about the bottle and the label. But yeah, HF eats glass, good job, you understand what a dangerous chemical it is.
I wonder if the dude had been straight with him, Ray mighta let him off with a beating and taking his cash, or if he was resolved to kill him from the start.
No mask and no trying to hide who he is so I expect he knew he was going to kill him in the end. Just a matter of how much work he would need to do to get the money.
He's a little bit of a kook, I saw a few interviews with him and he was taking about how he hates to be an actor but needs to act to get his message out.
Love how whenever he’s doing a job he just shows up to their home and they’re surprised obviously. One second he’s not there next second he’s there. It’s like the Grim Reaper showing up to take you. good stuff.
I think Ray would not have taken the car, it was something that bothered me with this episode, the car location could be tracked and therefore a suicide becomes a murder, Ray is too smart to take the car.
@@robman2095 So who’s going to activate the tracker? The owner is dead. Why would the police know it has a tracker let alone the type, how to activate or which company monitors it. You haven’t thought this one through have you? You better leave the badassery to Ray.
oh, come on. Stop asking for milking ideas. It went well, it was finished kinda ok, so why not? Definitely better, then 2 or more dull seasons, which will make you want to drop it.
I believe Scott Ryan stated he was just burned out. He was writing the scripts, Directing & acting. Very easy to be become overwhelmed. I believe stated something to effect, he did the show when it was fun, but transformed into a project that was no longer fun for him & chose to end it.
@@pavel590 Watched a deep dive and I agree I appreciate the pacing, story telling. It was so good. From my understanding they told the story they want and wanted to let it be. I have seen plenty of shows that should have stopped sooner. Maybe cause it was so good is why I wanted it to be longer.
yeah and no .. at least now we can say every season was brilliant . how many tv shows kept shitting out episodes until the quality dropped so badly even die hard fans stop watching alltogether
Except it can't be, by the looks of the bottle it is glass and you would never store HF in glass because it reacts with it. As you said very reactive and very very nasty stuff!
@@airbornetempest8012 I've seen those videos where it incinerates glass, flourine is insane. Perhaps because of the concentration and using a kind of mineral glass? It's a good point you make.

so underrated

I agree, as I saw all of these series when they came out, they did an amazing job with this
@@tpbrcombo There was a movie called Magician, featuring Scott Ryan.
When Ray smiles that toothy smile...Things never end well.
There's something really unnerving about that smile.
If you've never watched the series you absolutely need to.

The trouble with Mr. Inbetween.
There's so much violence sooner or latter ( If his pledge of harming women) would have crumbled. If the series continued.
I reckon the fact he kept lying made him iredeemable in Ray's eyes.
When you are talking to a guy like Ray, and he’s got gloves on, it’s time to come up with some cash.
yes, but also means death. I presume he got all or most of the money, then staged the suicide. for no witness or revenge.
"I've only got a few hundred in the house." A few hundred thousands.
All scammer should get the ray visit.
That smile man. " how much ya given, how much ya got? "
Guy looks like Nosferatu
Best series and it should have been given an Oscar or whatever. The character Ray Shoesmith is a Legend.
*Emmy
How trite.
Should have gotten more seasons.
@@johngilmore697like all the comments… agreed
@@billjames8036 Absolutely
Needs to pay a visit with 1-3 politicians a day.

If Ray gives you that smile you should already be running if you can.
He gives you that smile and its already too late mate
Ray’s smile isn’t that scary. His scowl is infinitely more terrifying, the look he gave that guy who kept the little girl in a suitcase made me shiver.
I watched this after a couple of YT clips and binge watched the lot. Brilliant.
He is terrifying, it’s that strange smile he has when he’s doing unspeakable things to people, the stuff of nightmares.
0:49 - Ray must be a fan of the movie Dirty Rotten Scoundrels 🤣🤣🤣
Look at him he's so happy he's crying 😢😥😭
Who isn't?
Binged the series! Worth every second and going to watch it again.
Brilliant and relatable show

Oh yes, we understand that.
Or 900e if you pay for a Chinese version which you can.
How much is that worth at Cashies?

Ray loves a good confession, it makes him feel he’s in right to hurt someone 😂😂😂😂

I wish the cast would come back & do a special for us, it was a class act.
BEST series in YEARS. Violence, love, sorrow, compassion, forgiveness, and a great badass ending to the series. The creator is PERFECT as the star,
3:11 What happened here? Some sad shite! Said he didn't want to live anymore...

ray is the type of dude that will leave you hanging :(
I miss this show so much.
When ray starts smiling you know your doomed 😂😂
another good deed
brought to you by Ray Shoesmith
I love his demon smile
Possibly my favorite kill of the series and that’s saying a lot!
Close, but it has to be the child kidnappers. That was an amazing episode. Literally on the edge of my seat. 👍
This bloke, the child kidnappers and the bloke who killed the girl and put her in the tunnel. Top shelf ends to terrible people.
@@claks_cocktails2838yea what Ray had in mind was obviously too disturbing to be shown onscreen, that made it more terrifying.
the world needs a Ray in every small town.
0:50 That was an exceptional hit!
Smooth
Home run 😂
Ray will just let himself out.
Ahh, another scene with good ol' Ray "if you had given me what I asked for when I asked for it we wouldn't be here" Shoesmith
Nah, not in this case. Ray's friend "topped" himself, because of the scam.
That smile...lol so treacherous.
Too good for a scammer.
Can we make him visit all the liars, manipulators, cheaters and scumbags of the world?
Isn't that what he's doing? Its Revenge Porn after all.

I guess he didn't have enough.
Didn't matter how much he had. He killed Ray's friend - he was going to die. The only question was how fast or slow.
Not a lot of people know about this show and it’s a shame
I remember years ago it randomly came on FX and I instantly fell in love with it. I felt it should've been way bigger than it was
My episode would be short. Ray shows up. "Oh, hi Ray. Cash OK?"
That made me laugh 😂
He's not there to collect the money, he's there to make you sorry you didn't pay sooner
@@dylanpearson6507bingo! The point is to avoid Ray showing up at all.
Best Goddamn Crime Thriller Series EVER PRODUCED! Scott Ryan HAS TO BE thinking about a second run of Mr. InBetween.
amen.
And he didn´t even grab one of the 4.000 $ bottles of wine. What a pro.
knowing ray and how he operates i bet it was water
Hydrofluoric acid eats through glass so yeah, its either canonically water or the show runners messed up.

After the cold-blooded tragedy this narcis. worm caused, Ray Could not abstain from wackin the creep.

Ray really seems to have the cure for alzheimer
I feel that shin shot.. omg.. brutal
My belly did a long, slow roll and my mouth went dry. Man...can you imagine the pain?

@@Swarm509 Plus the gloves.
Why is it that we dont see Scot Ryan on TV or Movies more? He's a great actor and I want to see more stuff with him in it!
did you know he wrote the show aswell?
I don't think he wants to be an actor, which is why the show was cancelled in season 3. He wants to just be a writer I think.
@@87Tempests I think he wanted a tidy story without bloat. Everything goes to crap after the original vision.
He's a little bit of a kook, I saw a few interviews with him and he was taking about how he hates to be an actor but needs to act to get his message out.
@@Avalanche2 why does that makes him a kook?
“How much have you got.” . . When Ray is saying that to you, you know it’s not good.
The best part is when he rips off into the distance with the Porsche.😂

I think Ray would not have taken the car, it was something that bothered me with this episode, the car location could be tracked and therefore a suicide becomes a murder, Ray is too smart to take the car.
I think the cops would be suspicious of the suicide angle given the fresh injury to his leg.
