Glitch

If there was rating that could be given for season 1 & 2 only it would be 10 and season 3 about 4 so I met the score at 6. I don't know why this show went off rails whether they were in rush or just simply diddn't care that it was ending. So many glaring plot holes, subplots that added virtually nothing to story line, and poor explanations for things going on in the show. By the time credits role around for season 3 you're left so angry and frustrated. What a waste of what I considered to be an amazing series.

Different but definitely worth watching. Season 3 was rubbish. Strange end. I think they ran out of ideas.

Glitch is loosely based on the premise from the French TV series "Les Revenants" which is excellent. For this reason I was hesitant to watch Glitch as I just didn't see how an Australian remake could top the original. I was also worried it might have turned a little more zombie apocalypse. However I was wrong, it's not a remake, and it's not a zombie series. It's takes a different angle on the theme from "Les Revenants" which is refreshing and clever. One of the best things about Glitch is how it never quite gives the game away, and whilst the idea of re-incarnation is a hard sell they never had me scoffing in disbelief. It's clever, and it's twisty turny in it's plot. Another really great aspect to the show is the warm inner glow you will get from time to time with respect to family members, you might be moved to shed a tear, just as "Les Revenants" was prone to do. If they make a season 2, I will be watching.

Glitch is basically an Aussie version of 'The Returned' complete with bushrangers and diggers. It's definitely binge worthy so kudos to ABC for sticking all the eps on iview rather than making us wait. I liked the distinct Aussie feeling to this show and the characters were likable and had interesting back stories. The overall story line is good and hooks you in. However, a few things bugged me, like the lack of amazement and confusion from the older characters in particular at just how much society had changed. There were hints of this but not enough to make how long they'd been dead realistic in my opinion. No one really questioned anything or gave cars, modern medicine, mobile phones etc. a second thought. Paddy lighting fires in summer when it was clearly dry and bush fire season also irked me a lot. But overall I enjoyed it and I hope netflix or someone picks it up so audiences outside of Australia can (legally) watch it. I liked the twist at at the end, and I would watch season 2 if it gets made. There are several unanswered questions at the end of season 1.

If I could rate season 1 and 2 separately from the third thing - that would be great. Enjoyed 1 and 2 very much despite the obvious "bad physics" or "bad science". Season 3 is just a huge disappointment. More so because I was really intrigued and looking forward to it. Sad. And bad.
