Bloom

I watched the entire season in a day, and yes I was hungover. However, it kept my attention the whole time and I got quite invested. The story - a flood devastates a small, country town in rural Australia and 5 people died. A glowing flower grows where they died and when eaten it makes you young. The storyline is driven forward tackling multiple themes and is both original and engrossing. The Acting - Superb! Every character is rounded, fleshed out and totally believable in their roles. The Production - Beautifully shot, a definite Aussie bush feel, a finely crafted production. Enjoyment - I was fully engaged the whole time. Rewatch/Recommend - I would not watch it again as it is at times quite heavy and dark yet I will recommend it. All in all, a stand out Australian production.

Better than most of the other shows that have come out in recent times. Aussie talent at its best. Good for a binge watch over the weekend

Worth a look. Once you reach episode 3 you be hooked. A small town in Victoria Australia is deluged by a flood. Where people perished in the deluge a plant with glowing fruit appear. It appears the fruit is the fountain of youth......but with consequences. It gets quite gripping as it goes along. 8/10

I liked it even though it's something that can't ever happen. Great acting and easy to follow. Found it both thought provoking and sad. Worth a look

You'd think that a series about a plant that supernaturally restores youth to the ailing elderly would have a bit more exhilarating vigor and faster pace, but unfortunately "Bloom" is as sleepy as the quiet Aussie town it's set in. The cast aren't exactly that much likable, either. But the story is quite solid, the drama poignant enough for me and the adept highlighting of the plight of seniors coping with dementia and their caretakers very much noble and laudable. So I would declare the show pretty much redeemed!
