Upright

This is an incredibly well written, beautifully directed series. One which I cannot recommend highly enough. With the exception of one very minor side story that I'm not sure really added anything this show is an amazing example of what makes great TV.

The script is incredible. There are very few words that are wasted, and the way the story develops is a thing of beauty.

I can only imagine how proud Tim and the team behind this must be with the masterpiece.

It was an emotional rollercoaster, but an absolute joy to watch. I wish I could delete my memory of it to fully enjoy it again.

Absolutely love Tim's previous work but this is gold. And couldn't recommend it more, Laughed and Cried what more do you want.

This series is simply sublime. Not only does it have a unique ability to keep the audience enthralled whilst only revealing small snippets of information of the characters lives like peeling back layers from an onion, it manages to do it in such a uniquely, stunningly, at times comedic and at other times devastating way. This series will leave an indelible mark on anyone who watches it. It is raw, clever, artistic, intelligent, funny, pure, beautiful, imaginative and real. I have to say it is one of my favourite Television series of all time. I can't even see an Ad for it it without smiling and becoming moved by it. Let's hope that Tim Minchin and everyone involved continue to act in Australia and make more wonderful series like this in Australia. Well done to Foxtel for funding this! This is something to be proud of! Thank you so much for giving us all this series to enjoy!

I can't imagine what is going on in the minds of the few low rating reviews. This is top-notch TV. It is, as intended, frequently comedic and in places hilarious, but the unfolding of the three main characters (including the piano) and their secrets and histories is delightful, done via odd but believable encounters with various groups of quirky incidental characters which occur in mostly remote, often amusing and sometimes quite stunning locations. The direction and camera work is great too, infusing the austerity of Australian outback with colour and life.

This show is nothing new in terms of format. Your typical getting from a to b with some hyjinx along the way. However the onscreen chemistry between lucky and Meg are what elevates this show to deeply funny and emotional ride across the breathtaking aus outback.

I didn't do any research before watching and went in blind but I was not disappointed. Equal parts hilarity and pure emotion and the season finale had me in bits.

Highly recommend and the soundtrack is suitably stunning.
