Critical Incident

... the genre is plentiful... most are passable entrants, few are very, very good... Critical Incident happens to be one of the latter... lots going on, at a pace at times relentless

.. propulsive storytelling, top performances and authentically lived-in settings lift this smart and gripping series.. is the lead in on one recent critic's review, and it's accurate... few world over do it better than in this latest-new Australian series

... read the analysis-review of Anthony Morris... it's straight, why this production is just sooo good, not-2b-missed-TV (especially if you love a fully well made crime-drama)... really looking forward where they take us in season two... binged in-a-day, now to wait till next year.

Critical Incident is well done, good story, and all round good acting. Yes, it could be better, some of the actors are trying too hard, but generally they get the tone right. The lead actress definitely has potential.

I am not Australian so it is difficult for me to address any stereotypes, however the bad guys are believable.

The story surrounding the foster care system, and the system in general, is well done. The portrayal of the group home atmosphere, the councillors and house supervisors with their own personal agenda seems believable to me.

Worth the watch, I just spent a pleasant day watchin all six episodes.

I want to trash talk this so much, but I found myself binge watching the complete series in one night.

Quality of camera work, production and casting, draws you into the characters stories within the story and true to todays culture.

Im rating this a Solid 7 and look forward to more Australian productions being released.

Hope theres more series to come, because it can't end on ep6.

The use of multi ethnicities is classic Australian and New Zealand relate able. A very easy plot to follow along, but more importantly the casting.. i felt as though they were relatable and the adult themes going on within.

I enjoyed this .. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

I feel like this series fairly represents perspectives from a variety of angles on social issues and policing intervention facing communities in Western Syd - it sets up a very probable incident which keeps you wanting for the resolution. The actors are endearing and the plot tracks a non-superficial depiction of how choices and cultural norms impact our lives. Critical Incident S1 solidly sets the stage for exploring more - it stands on its own, but it's only touched the surface of what is possible out of these characters & the setting - a reflection of the reality of life for some living in our most populous, newest and diverse communities today. Look forward to more.

Critical Incident is a fantastic new show! It is the best on tv this year so far. Great to see an Australian show do so well on Stan. Amazing plot and really interesting characters. The show embraces diversity and this comes through the script and actor selection. The script is really written so well - very talented writer to create so much drama and suspense.

Critical Incident is one of those shows you just want to binge watch all the episodes in one go. The show really has lived up to all the hype in the lead up to the show. Great to put a good Aussie show on the world stage. Can't wait to see if there is a season 2!!!!!
