Bad Mothers

Bad Mothers is superb quality Australian suspense drama. Set in an affluent, upwardly-mobile milieu, the cast, performances, direction, script production quality and photography are excellent. Amongst the cast, Daniel MacPherson is particularly brilliant. Bad Mothers reinforces the fact that Australian drama can indeed lead the world in terms of quality.

I liked it. It was something enjoyable to watch on a rainy day.

This series should have been at least an enjoyable way to wipe away a few hours on a rainy afternoon. The writing is so bland, predictable, irrational, and just plain BAD. The delivery isn't much better. Considering most of the quality stuff coming out of Australia, just skip this one.

If you don't have anything nice to say then you should not say anything at all.

Judging from the first episode, I like it. I read the other reviews comparing it to Big Little Lies. Don't! It has the same elements but it can be a stand-alone series. Many series have the same - cheating, friends, husbands, murder etc. SO WHAT. There is nothing new under the sun in subjects like these. Many of the best series in the past years are bought and adjusted to the native country of showing like, to name a few- "Homeland"... the hit show originated as Israel's "Prisoners of War." "The Office" in the USA originated from the British original series, "Ugly Betty" ...originated in Colombia as "Yo Soy Betty, La Fea." All in the Family" ...started in Britain's "Till Death Us Do Part." And so on and on. And I am not talking about the reality shows that are being made almost the same in other countries accommodating them to the present showing country. So stop with the comparison. The acting is good, the characters are likeable, the settings are clean and beautiful. I will definitely recommend this series. I love it so far.
