East of Everything

I lived in the Nimbin hills for two years and then moved here to Byron Bay in 2009. To live for fifteen years in this beautiful part of Australia is wonderful but to come across "East of Everything " on ABCiview and binge watch it, has been absolutely fantastic ! Anyone who has ever been to or lived in Nimbin, Mullimbimby, Bangalow, Brunswick Heads, Byron Bay and the hinterland area will absolutely adore this series. And if you haven't, then you'll want to come here. Loved the story line and cast, Richard Roxburgh is brilliant. Loved him in Rake too.

Coming home after working overseas for 20 years, I was delighted to binge watch Sea Change in 2001 and loved every minute of it, having been raised on the Bellarine peninsula, Portarlington and Drysdale, I knew all of the set locations and found it entertaining, quirky and fun to watch. Great story line and cast.

Any reviewers who were not swept along with these two great series are morons and should be slow cooked!

Enjoy! And a big congratulations to all involved in the making, MORE PLEASE !

I wish I could find more shows like this (besides the ones I know - Detectorists comes to mind). A real bummer sometimes, a real hoot other times. A real slice-of-life feeling. I loved the subdued, very real differentiation of the characters, and although I didn't like some of them in the beginning I came to like all of them very much. Some viewers might call the love that develops left and right in this show sappy. I don't. It's the way I think and hope all of us pull together and push through things as honestly as we can. It also has a bit of a commune thing going on, which I like.

I loved the first series of this show. I've watched it twice as I love the tone, the drift between humour and melancholy. The characters are well-drawn, well-acted and the location is stunning. I really believed that Eve and Art were still in love after all this time and that Art and Vance were brothers. Plus all the supporting roles were beautifully cast. The second series seemed to lose it's way a little but it's still worth watching.

I enjoyed the show on the whole, but the side characters were definitely more interesting and appealing than the leads. In particular, Kathryn Beck was luminous and captivating as Lizzy. Loved this character/performance immensely.

Loved this so much, I watched it twice. So disappointed when it ended after 6 episodes when I was expecting 13. Where are the rest?

The casting was excellent and the characters were like old friends by the time it ended.

I have watched in the UK, my husband and I are English, but my son and his family have settled in Mudgeeraba on the Gold Coast. His daughter is about to become a barrister in Brisbane. We have visited 8 times and love.it, though we never managed to get to Byron Bay. Well done you Aussies for giving us such a good series. I hope I manage to track down the other seven episodes.
