KnotMissPriceless Why so much hype?
GamerTab That was an excellent one.
Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews
Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
r-vandeventer I fell into Wentworth somewhere near the end of season 4 but was immediately hooked. The performances were stellar, the characters believable and the technical quality of the show -editing, sound, lighting- beyond good. As stated I fell into it late but kept watching and now were midway into season 6. I began to wonder how it all started and last week started watching the show right from the beginning and wow! It is brilliant right from the first episode and the character development is stunning. It's unbelievable that a show can stay this good for this long and feel fresh. I feel it's important, though not necessary, to watch all episodes as it will give a deep appreciation of how the characters became who they are, like Bea Smith, Frankie, Ferguson, and Kas Proctor. Since I hadn't seen the first 3 seasons I didn't understand the animosity between Bea and Proctor but the way it plays out in the end is beautiful and brilliant. Of course, the obvious comparison would be OITNB but it can't hold a candle to Wentworth even though it's based on the experience of a real person. It is simply inferior. Candy floss versus real grit. Wentworth deserves to be in teh same pantheon as Killing Eve, Downtown Abby, The Fall and Luther to name but a few. The series is easily binged but just as much enjoyed on a less intense basis though many won't be able to stop after one episode, I imagine. Sit back, empathise, get angry, get sad, enjoy. The best Australian drama!
shaymaa_ism-79209 This is one of the most beautiful tv show ever , I feel in love with Bea smith and Franky , totally fabulous, just the perfect story , the perfect actress, really well don't on choosing those actress . I would recommend this to anyone who wants to live another live with this show .
Jemae This is easily the best Australian TV show ever. The writing is excellent, it's drama, meets comedy, meets romance. I love the homage it pays to the original series. The characters are different but almost the same. Wentworth also looks cinematic, every episode draws you in, every character is amazing. It's such a shame. Aussie's can only watch the show if they have pay TV. More Aussie's need to see this show because very little know of the it. The freak is a better character on Wentworth, than the original. If you never liked the original, give the remake a chance because I guarantee, you will love it.
ditziie I put off watching this for a long time, under the false impression that it would just be a different version of 'Orange Is The New Black' (which I do love, but am not really searching for shows similar to it because I don't particularly like jail/prison shows) but man was I wrong. It is NOTHING like OITNB. Their similarities begin and end with it being set in a female prison.When I finally gave in and started watching, I was instantly hooked. Each episode is filled with action and drama and plenty of moments that make you either laugh or cry. The characters are unique and truly wonderfully played, you will quickly grow to love or hate each of them (sometimes both!) and as you learn their backstories you get a sense of really knowing and understanding them. There are some scenes that will literally have you on the edge of your seat, with your heart racing, yelling at the TV. After finishing this, I had to go find 'Prisoner Cell Block H' and give it a try. While it's nowhere near as good as 'Wentworth' (in my opinion) it was definitely neat to see the differences between the two. I'd definitely recommend Wentworth to anyone, I can't think of anyone I know who wouldn't like it, all of my friends who have watched it agree that it is one of their all time favorites! You will be kicking yourself for waiting so long to watch it!
