Mr Inbetween

Reading through most of these reviews I think mostly everyone can agree on one thing...Mr. InBetween is a really really good show! This show came out of nowhere (Australia actually) and has hooked everyone who has given it a chance. It's easily one of the most underrated shows on right now and I can't wait for more!

Gritty show from Australia which I found quite believable, unlike shows in the vein of Ray Donovan etc. Having known a few people in my time on earth that actually made a living from crime and violence, I found the portrayals realistic. There is no glamorized violence, kung fu, CGI BS or 90 pound women in high heels and evening dress beating up 220 pound thugs, so if that fake Hollywood world is your thing, this is not for you. In the real world, people are multi-faceted, and this show does a good job of presenting that with the main character. I am not Australian, but I didn't need subtitles to understand the dialogue. As for the reviewer who said the main character is a rip off of Mike from Breaking Bad, you are wrong. The lead in Mr Inbetween is a direct recreation of the lead role in The Magician, 2005, an Australian movie. Scott Ryan wrote the movie and played the lead, and he is a writer on Mr Inbetween and also plays the same character. Note Breaking Bad didn't air until 2008, 3 years after The Magician, so if anything, Mike is a rip off of Ray Shoesmith.

Don't miss this show if you like realistic action, settings and characters. If you like Hollywood and typical UK PC police procedurals, you might not like this. Personally, I found Mr Inbetween a breath of fresh air.

This is the best series I've watched in 2021 by far. First, acting is superb from the main character and most of the others. Brother's performance is terrific. Second, I love the length of every single episode. Impossible to get bored. Last, the storyline is fantastic from begining till the end.

So, overall better than 99% of Hollywood series. Amazing Aussie production.

What a thoroughly entertaining series this is. The story, the characters and the cast are all fantastic.

I binge-watched this series, which is easy to do. The episodes are only 28 minutes long and there are only six of them.

Casting kids in roles for TV is always a challenge as the lines, the actors and the settings almost always seem forced and unnatural... but Chika Yasumura (as Brittany) is simply awesome in her role. She's cute as a button and a 'natural' on screen.

This is simply gripping and exciting telly.

I don't think I've ever been more surprised by a show than I have been for Mr. Inbetween. I actually don't know anyone who's seen it that doesn't love it. There's a reason this show has a 8.7 rating here and a 95% on Rotten Tomatoes. The lead character (Scott Ryan as Ray) is both a tough guy who you shouldn't ever mess with and also a kind and good man. This show has something for everyone...it is funny, violent, thrilling, mysterious, etc. It's a show that should be binged because once you finish an episode you can't wait until the next one. If you haven't yet seen this underrated show then do yourself a favor and go watch it as soon as possible.
