Playing for Keeps

I don't understand the lack of ratings and reviews! This Aussie drama is a major step up to some of its predecessors (let's be honest, Aussie dramas are definitely not to the caliber of the US or UK). The acting, storyline and variation of story make this an easy watch and has me waiting for more each week!

Love it!

Love the Melbourne location shots and the association with AFL. In my opinion this show isn't about club culture (AFL) but rather the relationships between player's, their partners and their "friendship" group. It could be set in any environment where the main protagonists have high public profiles and where the media and public have an insatiable appetite for "news". I'm interested to see where it ends up.

Not an original concept at all, Channel 10. Go watch Footballer's Wives, the story is almost exactly the same (from the first episode). Anyway I loved that show so I'm sure this one will be great.

I got so invested in the characters and after season 2's cliffhanger ending, it's such a let-down to find out the show has been cancelled....wahhhtf! Another item dumped into that abandoned storehouse of tortured dissatisfaction. I'm going to start checking show series older than 2 years to see if they've been prematurely cancelled so I can avoid this in the future. Not really fair to us viewers and there should really be a warning or notice upfront to let potential viewers know what they're in for...

Am loving this new show and hope is renewed for a second season. Love that the story line is fast paced - lots is happening in a single episode. Feels like a typical Aussie show, don't take it too seriously. Am enjoying where this is going, scandalous, unpredictable and fun showing contrast between a typical Aussie girl and the more refined, glamorous types. Not really about footy!
