Winners & Losers

I hate being harsh on someone's work in the TV/film industry, especially when i know of how hard they worked and the time they invested to get their vision onto the screens.

However i feel no remorse, as i know that there was no hard work, nor was any time invested into this show.

Winners and Losers, a show written by the writers of Packed to the Rafters and is made to be a carbon copy of Packed to the Rafters, which is a show that is the same as Neigbours and finally, Neighbours, a show that is the same as Home and Away.Every Australian show is the same generic comedy/drama, barring the rare semi-gem from SBS/ABC.

Winners and Losers is the generic drama like the other shows i've mentioned above.The main plot revolves around a small family fight, fight cools down then it switches to a scene somewhere else where someone's being cheated on(dun dun duuuuunnnnn), but wait the person's who's being cheated on has a friend and he witnessed it all, but will take the whole episode(maybe even longer) to tell the person being cheated on about it due to being scared of it ruining their friendship.

Now the acting, i hate mocking people's work but this is the best Australian TV has to offer?I can't even describe it, sure i get that they're not Hollywood blockbuster level but geez, they took acting classes right?

In conclusion, Winners and Losers is a generic Australian comedy/drama that's only comedy comes from people laughing at the fact that the people involved with the making of the show are actually paid to do what they're doing.Its also a show with weak and uninspiring acting that, when combined with a generic script, makes the average TV watcher want to get rid of their TV.Live in Australia?Hope you like sport, because atrocious shows like these are all that are left when you take that out.

Such an amazing show with incredible. Similar elements to Packed to the Rafters but definitely wouldn't compare them. It's definitely a binge watch series. You can connect to the characters cause the things that happen are real life. I feel u can always watch old episodes and it doesn't get old. Highly recommend especially for mum and daughters to binge watch together🙂 One of the best Aussie creations in TV👏

'Winners and Losers' is an enjoyable, heartwarming series based around four friends who were dubbed the 'losers' at high school.

The series picks up 10 years after four women finished school in the suburbs of Melbourne. Although their lives have lead them in different directions, the women are all stopped in their tracks with the prospect of returning to the school for their 10 year high school reunion. However when the friends reunite they feel empowered, walk out of their school reunion, party, talk all night and then buy a lotto ticket the next morning. The first episode finishes with the girls winning the lottery, ensuring their lives are tied to each other for the foreseeable future.

The four lead female characters Jenny, Bec, Francis and Sophie are very different women, but the friendship between them is so believable thanks to the real life friendships of the actresses. The supporting male characters add romantic and comedic aspects to the storyline. The friendship group develops as family secrets are revealed and each season progresses as the girls mature.

Another hit by Bevan Lee (Packed to the Rafters, A Place To Call Home), 'Winners and Losers' illustrates the energy of the city of Melbourne, with numerous scenes being filmed at cafes, restaurants, bars and botanical gardens. This show certainly feels like a lot of fun because of the social nature of the friends and their extended families and the eye-catching fashion!

Does not really have any good elements to become a proper tv series that you can binge watch. However it has good comedy elements and is watchable when you have time to kill. This is very popular and everybody like it in Bonies house after i leave.
