Los sobrevivientes

I enjoyed the show quite a lot, the backdrop of a small tight knit town, managed to watch the episodes as soon as they dropped, currently on episode 4, it may become a sleeper hit, it might also cure your insomnia, in a good way though not a bad way, it's clear to see that the bay and a murder mystery can put people at arms length or make you question what you did wrong all those years ago.

Put aside some time over the weekend or during your week and give the show a chance, there may be too many characters but in a small town everyones a suspect.

Several characters could've and probably should've dropped off after episode three but it'll peek a viewing experience.

Give it a go, you may just like it.

This show was much better than I expected. Some clever twists and well shot with beautiful Tasmanian coastal views. It reminded me of Tim Wintons Blueback - but sensitively dealt with dementia and small village trauma. Sometimes slow moving is good to allow character development and understand the community.

You move through suspecting and disliking many characters and although I suspected the outcome early on- it was good to see the plot unravel.

Quite a good small town Australian story set in Tasmania with beautiful shots of the beach and sea life and small town life.

Definitely something to watch if you're looking to support Australian tv making. One of the better ones.

No pun intended - one might think: well this seems like an open and shut case ... well if that is what you thought ... you can guess it now: you guessed wrong. I think the show runs a bit longer than it should have, but it still is very well written and played. And the characters - actors portraying them of course - really give it their all - very well drawn (drown?) - again no pun intended.

I didn't know what to expect from this - but I reckon it did succeed ... and I was entertained - though I reckon it's more like I was really interested in where this would be going ... with reveals upon reveals ... and they do seem to make sense too. At least they do pass the (fast) smell test ... no pun intended.

Not sure why this got so many mixed reviews, it's a fantastic series and really kept me guessing until the end!

I kept thinking I knew who had done it, and what was going on but I didn't. Loved the red herrings, and the last episode tied it all up nicely

The scenery was beautiful as well, Tasmania is gorgeous and loved the small town appeal.

Managed to finish the whole series in one day just because I had to keep knowing what was going on.

All the main characters were well thought out and kept me gripped. Only slight negative was the character of Liv who I found quite annoying and not the greatest actress.

Overall I'd highly recommend!

"The Survivors" - A Slow Burn with Compelling Undercurrents The Australian mini-series, "The Survivors," draws viewers into the seemingly tranquil world of a bay village near Hobart, where a community grapples with the re-emergence of long-buried secrets. Fifteen years after an unexplained death, another fatality shatters the peace, forcing the residents to confront a past they've tried to forget.

The series weaves a complex tapestry of interconnected storylines, as old secrets begin to fray and unravel. While the plot's various threads promise intriguing revelations, the pacing of "The Survivors" is undeniably deliberate. A slight acceleration, perhaps by "half a notch," could enhance the overall flow and tension, keeping viewers more consistently on the edge of their seats.

Despite its somewhat leisurely pace, "The Survivors" offers a genuinely interesting narrative. The core mystery, coupled with the slow uncovering of past transgressions, creates a compelling sense of intrigue. This is further elevated by the strong performances of the cast, who effectively portray the conflicted emotions and hidden depths of their characters. Their nuanced performances ensure that even when the plot moves slowly, the human drama remains captivating.

Ultimately, "The Survivors" is a series that rewards patience. While a quicker tempo might have served it well, its compelling storyline and well-executed character portrayals make it a worthwhile watch for those who appreciate a slow-burn mystery with a strong dramatic core.
