First things first, I really wanted to like it. After watching the first episode, I was really excited to watch this show. The main idea seemed new, fresh; it was a combo of dark fairy tales and brutal reality. But I think the execution is just too poor to make it a decent series. Episodes are slow paced, repetitive, they mull around the same thing over and over again. Acting of most characters is OK, the main guy is always kind of angry, bet he wakes up like that. The main characters were my greatest issue with this show: they are absolutely disgusting, they represent all what your grandma told you not to be. Also, character development is lacking, I felt like only in episode 6 something has actually changed. Thus,without bringing in any spoiler, the show is slow-paced, lacks story development, and has some poor acting. I recommend watching only first and sixth episodes, as it will be enough to enjoy the show

I have given this show an 8, since I am just getting into it now. Looking forward to the next season. Interesting characters, traditions, beliefs, and a bit of sci-fi. The acting, cinematography, and story line are top notch. The topics can be compared to our everyday struggles. Fear of the unknown, racism, connections with family, greed etc. The shows that I have enjoyed the most in my life are ones in which the "good guy" turns out to be morally void, and the "bad guy" ends up having more scruples. It is one of the reasons that I enjoyed Breaking Bad. I have high hopes for this show. Can't wait to watch the new episode tonight. It is worth the watch.

This is definitely a different story and unusual characters. This series is a significant change of pace from the typical science fiction story line. The dialog and the acting is pretty decent as well. I am guessing it has a more social impact for the Australian audience but it is not totally lost on a US audience.I will be honest I cannot think of a lot more to say other than to say you should give it a chance and watch 2 or 3 episodes before you decide one way or the other.I think IMDb should rethink the 10 line minimum for a review, that is certainly more than I need to offer a meaningful opinion one way or the other.

I am only 20 minutes in and I think these 20 minutes of "tv show" I have seen is utterly crap.Never seen a TV show from Australia before and now I know why1. Just the accent is annoying to listen to 2. The filming looks so low budget 3. The cut between the scenes reminds me of really bad TV shows from the 80-90ies, you know the ones that run for decades. Try to keep a clip for more than 3 seconds before switching. 4. The dialog is horrible "for 5 minutes all I heard was "jera Jera" 5. I have no interest in any of the characters, and it has been switching so much between the scenes that I doubd there is a lead character in there somewhere. Don't waste your time here!5 minutes has past and now there is a fight scene. Awesome sound effects hahahaha
