Seven Types of Ambiguity

It was a haphazard, erratic production. It started of very well & gave the pretense of being a classic show. However soon started to follow standard clichéd concepts and techniques of storytelling. Some episodes were disjointed, not linked with the story & seemed like fillers. The ending was pathetic, with most important questions not fully resolved. There were coincidents which seemed absolutely absurd. In conclusion its potential wasted. It could have been a much much better show. But it wasn't.

I cannot quite fathom how this has such a decent rating. The plot and script have more holes than a tea bag. The acting redeems the show, especially Hugo, which is why it gets a 1 and not a 0 if that were possible to score here. 7 types? There are 6 episodes! The first two, possibly three episodes are great, after which, I don't know if they ran out of money, ideas, if the director changed or they lost the script, but something happens. The show loses all sense and reason for being. None of what you have learned about the characters carries forward into anything that might be deemed semi-realistic. It's absurd. The editor cannot even be bothered to check simple things like when Anna receives a text msg and we see that it was actually sent 3 hours ago (on May 7). A few days later she receives another text msg, sent 'now' but the date is May 5. If they cannot be bothered why should the viewer be bothered to watch.

It isn't worth my time carrying on, but if you're a glutton for punishment, then by all means, watch it, if only for the solid Hugo performance and the wonderful cinematography of Melbourne.

Binged this in a day, Very compelling and interesting to watch, reminded me of the Slap, a few of the same actors were in both, told from each main character's point of view in each episode in the same way The Slap did. I just wish the ending wasn't left so open and vague but all in I'm glad I watched it. I think the Australian TV shows like this are excellent and get to the nitty gritty of normal day to day life for most people just trying to get by.

Finished the series in one day. Originally attracted by Hugo Weaving's stunning performance then the organization of the series really gets me. Loved it a lot. I'd give 10/10 if the ending could be better. Theatrically it is surprising, yet not so bright for characters' intentions.

I really enjoyed this series and I liked how it kept you guessing right until the end! It was great how each character in the show had their own episode for you to learn about each of them. Plus great writing for there to not be too much over lapping of the same scene again and again. A great binge series!
