Glitch

Season 1 was great. Season 2 was good. But Season 3 was beyond awful. Typical of movies today, it was only good for evil conspiracies and bad endings. It was like the Matrix. The first movie was great and imaginative. The other two were awful. It's just that watching Season 3 to its conclusion, left me angry in the end, making me with I hadn't watched it at all.

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

The first two season of this were absolutely fantastic. Unique, a sorta X-files meets The walking dead. A group of people from all walks of life and from different era's wake up from their slumber (death) in a small Australian town, and the local sheriff must figure out what going on, as well as those that just woke up. They too want to know. Is it a science experiment, is the apocalypse, is Armageddon? We don't know, and frankly we sorta figure it out in a very disappointing 3rd season.

The 3rd season is ridiculous, 6 episodes to tie it up and you pull a game of thrones final season on us, where nothing really happens, we learn nothing until the final episode and then its over. I get that #Netflix doesn't renew foreign shows, or really any shows unless they are award winners past season 3, but you still could have made it engaging. Literally nothing happens in the 3rd season that is worth noting. Ahh well, moving on the next show to be cancelled by Netflix.

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.

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.
