The Other Guy

Finally, an Australian TV show that's funny and full of drama. The show is not only funny but it's also extremely well acting. Very impressed.

If you like Australian social theme television series which identities contemporary icons and subcultures then you will easily enjoy this story. Each of the two seasons are only 6 episodes, and I easily did the entire series as a weekend binge. Very enjoyable. Think Please Like Me in writing style - Lovable characters which you can relate to. Well written, well film, well acted. Worth watching.

....it's a good show when considering all the genre.. .. the cast is solid, and they all do good work..

..if there's any gaps, it's the logic in getting away undiscovered for several years ..how and why, on either side, would and could this be possible

.. and major unanswered question from S1.. why'd it take her so long?

..they've inserted the major plot-line for season two ..here's looking forward that they get a chance to make use of it..

... to-their-credit ... they didn't-do-the-obvious ... & S2 is much-much-better 4-it.

Australian television is 99% garbage, most of it unrelatable/unrealistic drama and endless reality TV shows. The Australian Film and TV industry sucks, hence most people these days either stream or download their TV shows and movies.

"The Other Guy" bucks the trend and is one of the few gems that shines through the rest of the garbage. It is actually of a comparable quality to American TV, however based in Australia with Australian actors. Granted, some of it is unrealistic and exaggerated, it is still worth a watch as it is based around an interesting, realistic scenario.

Good character development. Good quality video, filming and editing. This was really refreshing to watch. If you're after something Australian, it's definitely worth a watch. Recommended age range 18-40, I'd say. I'm eagerly awaiting season 2.

Perfect mix of drama and comedy, watched the first season when it first came out and recently watched the second and it's gotten even better. Just an awesome Aussie show.
