Ray Donovan is just one of several hit shows Showtime has been producing over the last few years. Aside from the acclaimed spy show Homeland, Showtime is also home to Shameless and Twin Peaks a revival set 25 years after the original Twin Peaks.

The original series was a smash hit with both viewers and critics. Despite only lasting on the air for two seasons, it gathered an enormous following which led to the present series on Showtime. Like the original series, the revival of the show has been an enormous hit.

One thing the shows all have in common is that apart from all being hit shows, they are all unique shows that aren’t afraid to be different and push the envelope a bit.
