Seven Types of Ambiguity

... Leeanne Walsman's a very good actor, as-and her recent excellent series 'Human Error' attests once again... here, she's not so much a part of each Seven Types of Ambiguity episode, yet when she does appear she makes the most of it, especially that final segment

... Xavier Samuel is actually only several years younger than Walsman, yet he appears onscreen to look much younger than her... and seeing that these two characters in this story are to have been 'lovers' in school, the 'look' of the two of them, and story-timelines of their ages just doesn't work-calculate... maybe as a younger lover of hers, fine... but together in college for several years, just isn't making sense, and it's distracting... in 2017, Walsman's a woman in her late thirties, Samuel his mid-thirties... with a script having them knowing one another for ten years

... all other actors work well in their respective roles... yet with Simon such an important character to the story, it's really difficult disregarding... added to a storyline having long stretches dragging out, and it makes at times for difficult viewing... it's a worthwhile production, yet flawed more than it should have been... Walsman and Samuel did great work.. most all others as well too... another good ABC drama.

Binged this in a day, Very compelling and interesting to watch, reminded me of the Slap, a few of the same actors were in both, told from each main character's point of view in each episode in the same way The Slap did. I just wish the ending wasn't left so open and vague but all in I'm glad I watched it. I think the Australian TV shows like this are excellent and get to the nitty gritty of normal day to day life for most people just trying to get by.

I cannot quite fathom how this has such a decent rating. The plot and script have more holes than a tea bag. The acting redeems the show, especially Hugo, which is why it gets a 1 and not a 0 if that were possible to score here. 7 types? There are 6 episodes! The first two, possibly three episodes are great, after which, I don't know if they ran out of money, ideas, if the director changed or they lost the script, but something happens. The show loses all sense and reason for being. None of what you have learned about the characters carries forward into anything that might be deemed semi-realistic. It's absurd. The editor cannot even be bothered to check simple things like when Anna receives a text msg and we see that it was actually sent 3 hours ago (on May 7). A few days later she receives another text msg, sent 'now' but the date is May 5. If they cannot be bothered why should the viewer be bothered to watch.

It isn't worth my time carrying on, but if you're a glutton for punishment, then by all means, watch it, if only for the solid Hugo performance and the wonderful cinematography of Melbourne.

I wanted to like this, I really did.

Aussie suburban and city dramas really lack something and I was hoping this would be better.

It started off ok, although it was only seeing the second episode featuring Hugo Weaving that it was clear how poor Alex Dimitriades had been in the first episode. The epitome of the wooden actor. He couldn't get a gig in Thunderbirds.

So, each episode featured a different character. From the title you would have thought seven, but no, it was six.

The "drama" got worse until the final one which would have embarrassed the Neighbours production team.

As for the plot, it was all a waste of time and not a good advertisement for Aussie justice when at least three serious felonies had been committed and nobody is brought to task.

I really enjoyed this series and I liked how it kept you guessing right until the end! It was great how each character in the show had their own episode for you to learn about each of them. Plus great writing for there to not be too much over lapping of the same scene again and again. A great binge series!
