Well written and well acted character

Just dropped in to express the same sentiment. Tucker immerses himself into the role to such a degree that he becomes almost mezmorizing. Whether or not Belasco envisioned Jay as the runaway star of the show, that seems to be precisely what he has become. Acting at its finest is equal parts writing, casting, and performance. Tucker completes the trifecta brilliantly.

I could not agree more. Tucker is the heart and soul of this show. His scenes with Joanna Going are powerful. Frank Grillo fits the role of Alvey Kulina like a glove. His scenes are hard hitting and powerful. I would nominate Grillo, Tucker, and Going for Emmys. Grillo- Best Actor. Tucker-Best Supporting Actor. Going- Best Supporting Actress.

I agree. I love this show. I watched the first episode thinking, I hate MMA and fights I'll never watch this. And boy was I wrong. It is the grittiest most realistic slice of life. No sugar coating and such a great ensemble cast who together are outstanding. Paul Hauser as Keith is amazing. So glad to see they are even thinking ahead to season 4 before they even do season 3.

He is amazing! I've just finished the final episode of season 2. Every emotion he conveys whether it be happiness, sadness or anger is believable. After seeing his performance in this final 2 episodes the mother in me just wants to hug him
