Wolf Like Me

This is different kind of love story from Down Under. I'm not sure why they cast Josh Gad in the lead role as Gary, a single father suffering from a literal case of puppy love. Maybe it was to attract the American market? Whatever the reason may be, he did a good job and the onscreen chemistry between Gad and Fisher was surprisingly believable. Isla Fisher as Mary, was adorable as usual. If you're expecting Olaf or the typical Gad humour you may be disappointed. This series is a drama not a comedy or horror.

Apart from the last episode it's not action packed, scary or full of Special FX, but at just under 3 hours in total, it's easy enough and engaging enough to binge. Who can't look at Isla Fisher for 3 hours?

This is not a standalone series. There needs to be a season 2 because the story hasn't finished.

I've started watching this show because I saw a fantasy genre series with a promising yet cliche plot.

Well, it's anything but that. It's a mix of drama with humour, often dark humour (similar to the type of humour usually provided by British shows) which is perfectly delivered by characters whose odd behavior gives this series an edge. Furthermore, storyline is pretty unpredictable maybe except for the last episode where you can tell from the start what major plot twist is just waiting to happen.

I haven't watched many Australian series but when I do I always seem to like it. So give it a chance and watch at least 3 episodes before you make your mind about it.

Sure the limited effects were a bit cheesy and it should have been a 2-hour movie instead of a 3-hour miniseries, but nevertheless it was enjoyable overall :-) All three main characters including the young girl gave convincing performances.

Great story, not too funny that it will lose its meaning and not much dramatic it will makes you hold your laughs. Its a mix of both.

The acting from the 3 main characters are outstanding and the vibes between them are great.

What a unique, fresh story. Love love loved it. Six short episodes, so easy to watch, and interesting characters. Josh Gad and Isla Fisher are a mismatched, yet gorgeous pair.
