Sean, the lead character, lacks charisma or ability to read people but is a brilliant solver of puzzling crimes. He does eventually show that he has feelings for others when his housekeeper/carer goes missing. He was also aware of her daughter and chose to entertain her. It adds comedy the way he takes off completely oblivious of those around him. His sidekick provides the warmth he lacks and fills in the niceties. It takes a while for others to warm to him out of respect for his brilliance at solving crimes.

Still hopeful they'll continue this series now the covid years are sort of behind us. Too many good scores and reviews for the powers that be to not take advantage of a series that actually is good and well received.

Cinematography is brilliant and would be amazing on the big screen. Star actors couldn't be bigger names and all bring a compelling presence to the screen. Are there any big surprises or twists to engage the audience? Maybe not, but it's an enjoyable series.

We're pretty spoilt these days which makes us very critical. Let's just look for the positives. It's so good to see so many great Aussie actors on the screen, none bigger than Hugh Jackman, a favourite especially for the ladies. Nicole Kidman still looks beautiful on screen. It's good to see Bryan Brown as well as others. The villain isn't hard to hate so his acting must be spot on. Overall, the acting is good and I especially liked the little boy, Nullah.

The visual aspect alone is a great advertisement for Australia and should bring a big increase in tourism.

I don't know the ending yet as only seen four episodes but I hear it differs from 'Australia' which also faced criticism.

I stand by rating of 8 despite no surprises because visually it is spectacular.

The story is all over the place. Audience cannot follow so many time switches. In one episode alone we are subjected to repeated back and forwards in the timeline. It's too distracting!

Maybe cover the back story in one episode and then get on with the tale. The acting is fine but is seriously let down with the writing.

All of a sudden we find out key information out of the blue which is again down to the writing. It didn't belong at that particular point.

It could have been good with attention to how the script was written. This needed to happen at the writing stage. More consultation and scrutiny of the script before any production began should have occurred.

All the money in the world can't repair a badly written script that ignores any form of sequencing.
