das trifft ganz gut was ich meine.
Some of the black and Jewish characters feel like stereoptypes dreamed up by the Irish stereotypes. The most egregious ones come in the third episode, when we meet an African-American rapper trying to adopt a boy he calls "the black Justin Bieber" who has his eye on Ray's young daughter. His music, by the way, is much cornier than that of any recent rapper, or Justin Bieber. It made me worry that the writer's room may just be out of touch.
I'm not calling the show racist. The problem with the characters isn't that they're offensive. It's that they're offensively obvious. I think "Ray Donovan" is trying a little too hard to be gritty and gutsy and real, like "Southland" felt. But "Ray Donovan" seems to think that showing people fighting, cursing and getting it is enough to make them seem authentic. It isn't. They also need to seem believable when they're not in a boxing gym or bedroom.
