Onlinewsma Absolutely Brilliant!
Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
Jakoba True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.
Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
coka67 HI! My name is Milena and I am from Serbia (ex Yugoslavia in Europe),and I like your TV show very much.It was emitted on our cable TV last 2 months.This TV show was the best after "Blue heelers",years ago.I like shows with a soul.In my country 'Blue heelers" was translated as "Cops with a soul".Almoast everything that comes from Australia ,movie or TV show is showing viewers what life of ordinary or common people looks like.It is fantastic,and I was deeply moved.At my opinion every actor was the perfect choice for the role hi was given.And I don't have favorite actor or role,I like all of them.I wish everything best to all crew and actors in their future projects.
energy_cuddle Maybe it's just that Aussie girls love Aussie shows, but this is one of my favorites! I watched every episode, and sometimes I even watch the midday repeats.Yes, some of the acting was a bit dodgy, but don't you love the teens?! All the awkward moments were hilarious, and the comments were perfect... exactly what you would say in the situation, only funnier!I reckon it's a must see!I just have one question though... what's the name of the gay guy that Pip falls in love with? It's been bugging me for ages. He was my favorite character. There were moments when I just cringed with embarrassment for both Pip and the guy. So... who's the mystery man? Please tell... I must know!
Loz8 I wholeheartedly disagree that "Always Greener" is a rip-off of "Seachange", the only connection is the brilliant actor of John Howard, and even then, he plays a completely different character!I find that "Always Greener" always brings something new. Unlike many comedies, it is fresh, insightful and unpredictable. The use of Dictionary meanings of a word relevant to the next scene is clever and often amusing. It plays upon reality and surreality thereby making us constantly aware we are watching a television program whilst still endearing us to the characters.I would advise anyone to give "Always Greener" a shot as you might be surprised into realising that what originally sounds like a cliche ends up being exactly the opposite.
ac_lees Yeah, so the CONCEPT of it sounds dated and boringly family-like: Two families, one from the country, the others from the inner city swap houses.Actually, it sounds dreadful! But the show has so far been done in good taste. It's not all cutesy as one would think - in the first episode, we see drugs being 'used' by the oldest daughter of the city family. It's got some real class and the characters are pretty real to life - not made-up characters to make the show more entertaining!A good Aussie dramedy (comedy + drama together), appeals to most ages and both sexes. Especially good for lovers AND haters of the much loved SEACHANGE.
