I'm only halfway through the first episode and there have been plenty of giggles and chuckles. The cast is strong and capable....but.... Someone seriously messed up. Main character Sgt Collins checks tide tables...the heading says January. The premise is the murder took place just before the "Winter Festival" and last time I checked winter in Tasmania is July/August-ish.

Also, I know the Detective is supposed to be from Darwin and I know Australia is big, but seriously, wouldn't someone from Darwin know winter in Tasmania is colder than the proverbial witch's teat!?

If, in fact, the story takes place in January, wouldn't it be considerably warmer than it appears ?

I admit, I am confused, but it really is worth a watch, even if one has to overlook the small details.

I give this show a solid 7. Yes, some of the dialogue/acting seems a bit wooden at first but, as the season progresses, the actors and their characters grow. The apparent "holes" in the story are there to create suspense. As the characters grow and learn more about themselves, the virus, and their places in the "new" Pretty Lake, so do we the viewers. For such a young cast, I think they did an outstanding job! I only wish Krystal Hope Nausbaum had been given a bigger role. She is totally awesome as Amanda! Oh, and I watched every episode of the first season before coming to any conclusions, rather than after 1 episode like most of my fellow reviewers.
