Between Two Worlds

It feels like going back in time 40 years and watching Dynasty again. They could have come up with something more original than that. I hope that they are not going to produce so many episodes. I have watched a few good movies based o the 'cellular memory' concept. This is not one of them, it just uses the theme to fuel a lackluster soap opera.

The idea or storyline of this show sounds interesting and promising. I've watched 4 episodes now and find the whole show woeful. The characters and their dialogue are very "over the top" stereotypical and no where near to seeming vaguely like real people. The acting by most of the cast is wooden. I was surprised to see Hermione Norris in this at all, seems she has come a long way down from the Wire In The Blood series. A special mention to the actress who plays Georgia Konig; her acting has to be the worst, most wooden of the lot! I could do better although I certainly wouldn't look as good which is the only reason I can see that she got the part! I was tempted to give up after episode 1 but the show is a bit like a car crash that you want to see but wish you didn't.

I hope 1 journalist's review does not stop this series. Love the actors and locations. It can grow to a real story if allowed to continue. Overseas reviews seem much more positive..we have had nothing since A Place to call Home, so this should be given a go....When is series 2 coming? Not fair to leave watchers in the lurch with an unfinished story....Come on Channel 7.... tell us what is happening please?

As an Australian I've seen way too many Australian drama series. What they have in common is they all are produced as if they are soap operas. The dialogue is over dramatic and stilted, every item of clothing is brand new and perfectly pressed, the people are all beautiful as are their homes. Every show is the same plastic wrapped sterile effort. Compare this to British shows where actors are sought that look the role, from drug addicts to peers of the realm. They talk like real people and react like real people. If you're into soap operas you'll probably enjoy this show, if not look for something else to occupy your time.

Is this going to get the axe before it's given a chance. I'm usually not a fan of Aussie productions but put a Bevan Lee script with Hermoine Norris together and you have my interest. Yes it's a slow burn as little by little each character's story is revealed. I hung in until the cliffhanger at the End of Episode 10 just and hope more layers will be peeled back in Season 2
