The veteran drama ends after seven seasons.
February 4, 2020
Showtime announced today that Ray Donovan has completed its run and will not return for Season 8. The news comes two weeks after the long-running drama's Season 7 finale on January 19, which now serves as its series ender.
The news was somewhat unexpected given the show's continued solid performance, but at last month's TCA, Gary Levine, the cable network's co-president of Entertainment, commented that he thought it was nearing the end of its run. Many interpreted that as a signal that a final eighth season would be ordered, but obviously that was not the case.
Ray Donovan stars Liev Schreiber as the titular character, who does the dirty work for some of Los Angeles' most-powerful figures. As their go-to guy, he makes the problems of the city's elite celebrities, athletes, and businessmen disappear.

IMHO, this show had went on for 2 seasons too long anyway. I lost interest in this gang of emo bros after Season 5, when it became very clear that they are repeating the same format/drama every season but with a new "bad guy".

I've been with this show since the beginning, very good show. That's pretty s***y of Showtime not to honor and ling time running show with a series finale. I mean really? I see some people say page 6 says it will get a proper ending. We shall see, I hope so.

"They wacked a lot of people last season, what party is that?"
That's the Democrats of course.

Why are there political comments here? It's titled Showtime cancels Ray Donovan, I feel like I missed something and was watching a different show. Finding a political message on this show is a stretch. I don't feel inclined to vote with either party after watching Ray Donovan. They wacked a lot of people last season, what party is that?

I'm disappointed in Showtime if they renew. Will be cancelling now.
