North Shore - Tod in Sydney

Bit odd.

I'm not sure what to make of this series given the fact you've spoken about things that seem so unnatural to the story. Why do I need to know that hormones are allowed in Australian meat, but not in British meat? What is your point?

Why do you keep bringing up, repeatedly, about the farming/meat standards being inferior in Australia compared to other countries? It seems very unnaturally placed in the script like you're trying to make a point?

Loved watching this for Max's character and the actor who plays him. As for his "boss" and her angst and unfriendliness, it seems a bit-well, cringe.

I liked it. It's not the best show out there, but it's also not the worst. It was obvious who the killer was about halfway through, but the twist they used to show it was probably the best 5 seconds of acting in the series. It's a police procedural that you can watch with your kids. No intense shoot-outs, no car chases through the city with multiple wrecks, no sex scenes etc. Watching this reminded me of watching the last Crocodile Dundee; It definitely won't win any awards, but you can do far worse. It's a very pleasant 4 hour evening binge. I'm looking forward to a second season if they make one because the ending of this one could go either way.

I was hoping this mini series would be a face spaced thriller set against the background of beautiful Sydney and Sydney Harbour. It was a slow routine mystery with great actors like the Queen of the British mini series Joanne Froggatt and the beautiful Claire Lovering. Unusual casting of John Bradley as the British cop but added a little bit of humour.

It was a beautiful tourist commercial for Sydney. I would like to see film makers who have a big budget , great cast and locations make a fast spaced serial killer style mystery in Sydney, The Rocks and the Northern Beaches. Gave it a 7 for the cast and beautiful photography.

I'm sorry for those who gave this low scores and gave up on it before the last episode!

Because the final episode has the most surprising twist of any crime/ murder mystery series since the first season of Broadchurch! Not as emotionally dramatic but still shocking!

There is no way - and you're right it doesn't seem to point to the fact that there even will be a twist at the end - which makes it even more amazing. It seemed like just a normal procedural, that was however to me a great story and a great bunch of characters and their relationships evolving; with the backdrop of politics! And you assume that they and us the viewers know who the killer and accessories are around halfway through the series. And probably thinking what else is there - and boy is there something else! Then even after that denouncement, the very last scenes offer up surprises!

The surprise probably meaning there could be a sequel. Let's see. As long as there is another intriguing murder!

Ok so this isn't Line of Duty or the Wire but it it was much better than I was expecting due mainly to the two leads who carry it.

John Bradley seems to have mastered the smart cookie hidden behind the soft English 'buffoon' character.

Joanne Froggatt continues to show has the ability to lead. However, if I were being critical it does feel like she's being held back and not allowed to show her full range.

The one irritating aspect was her inability to maintain her 'posh' English accent. It slips every now and then revealing her northern roots.

Don't go into this expecting a breathtaking drama. Take it for what it is. A simple who done it with a great twist at the end!
