"Mr Inbetween" is a half-hour comedy series inspired by the cult film "The Magician" and centers around Ray Shoesmith. Juggling a relationship, parental responsibilities, friendships and a sick brother while earning a living would be difficult for anyone, but it's particularly difficult for Ray since he's a criminal for hire. Ray "takes care of people" -- collecting debts, relieving them of drugs and guns, and often taking care of them on a more permanent basis. Ray demands respect and does not tolerate it when someone disregards his very clear code of ethics.

Ryan's writing is crisp and taut - there's no sense that like many writers working in the crime genre he is learning what the story is as he is telling it, that breadcrumbs are leading him along. He is as abrupt and obdurate as his leading man.

Ryan's marvelous performance provides the glue that holds everything together. His character is a callous killer for hire, but, without smoothing out any of the rough edges, the actor makes you care about him

season starts amazing, ends amazing. this for me is right up there at my top 5 shows of all time. and the awesome thing is this show has the most cliched premise but has the most unique feeling of a storyline. maybe because it's so unbelievably genuine

Scott Ryan’s performance as Ray is incredible. Hope to one day see him again on screen or behind the camera!

Was recommended to me years ago, but always forgot about it, but its a brilliant show. Definitely worth a watch for anyone who hasn't watched it yet.

Still brilliant. Honest to goodness Ray just doing what needs to be done in his nonchalant and no bolschevick way. Still all the action, drama, heartfelt emotion, real world feel, grit, suspense intrigue and some dark humor. Expertly written, great cinematography. Still follows no rigid script rules, which it's why we love it. Charming and sassy. Very entertaining and captivating

Fantastic drama (with some dark humour) about an Australian hit man/general criminal as he deals with his ‘job’ but also every day life around it from girlfriends to his daughter… only 30 min episodes and well worth a watch. I loved it.

Mr. Inbetween is a series where when you look back years after watching, and wonder why there been anything that good on television for five years? This program has a soul to it. The balance between tragedy and humor is measured in milligrams of perfection. Ray is my favorite television character of all time. If this was a US/UK show, (which it could’ve never been for many reasons), and had a longer run, it would be ranked with Breaking Bad, the Sopranos, The Wire, among other equal masterpieces. **BTW S2E4 may be the best 30 minutes of drama since Ozymadias
