RFDS

I agree with the reviewers who give a lower rating because of the first episode (which essentially tries to cram too much in at once), however if you give the show a chance it does develop into something much better.

If you are a fan of light hearted dramas such as 1000 words - i think you will like this. Several of the actors are established Aussie actors who you will recognise if you have watched many other recent dramas - including Five Bedrooms.

The story revolves around the RFDS and the crisis they face, however the show deals with this in such a way that you can't help connect with those affected.

It is sweet and heart felt and a nice light easy watch. It keeps out modern politics and all the social nonsense you watch TV to avoid.

The only annoyance with the show is the English Doctor's son. He is just a whiney child who acts far younger than his age. The show doesn't really connect with his character, and the actor who plays him is so wooden that you are glad of that !

As a nurse, I have loved medical shows since ER. I'm very critical of most, because they're not realistic and you can't help but see the flaws. I found RFDS to be above average. Obviously I don't know what goes on in the Outback, but I do know that these stories are pretty darn good and very realistic. I hope that there is enough support to keep this one going! I like it!

I love this show, I cannot stress that enough. It's brilliant. I'm old enough to remember The Flying Doctors, what you might call the original RFDS and the flame was passed on to an equally entertaining show that displays what life in the harshness of the outback can be...the good, the bad and the type that tears your heart out of your chest when you witness it.

The characters are really great, contemporary, kind, funny and somewhat tongue in cheek at times, but we'll thought out and we'll acted.

This show is a real true blue pleasure to watch and it tips it's hat to the real people who work for the Royal Flying Doctors and the great work they do in the rough outback environment.

This is one of the best "doctor" shows that I have seen! The acting is outstanding. The stores are great. Realistic. Most of the other medical/ police/ first responder shows that I have watched and liked (to varying degrees) don't measure up to RFDS.

I'm American, really like Australian, British, New Zealand shows. Good job!

I really enjoyed this show. I hope there is a season 2. Nice to see a good Aussie show. Some are not so good. The bite was another one that was ok but it got cancelled. I much prefer rfds any way'
