I HATED the first 2 episodes. Seriously, I wanted to kill Eddie myself. By the 3rd episode, I was hating it less, by the 4th episode, I liked it and by the end I LOVED it. I even grew to love Eddie. I read someone else's review who called her the new Jar Jar Binks and I agreed for the first half of the season. But she ended up growing on me. So, I'll not hash out the plot here, but this show kept me guessing to the very end. I can usually eye the murderer from the beginning, but I could not when watching this show. So, my advice is stick with it to episode 5 and you'll be hooked. We ended up watching it over 2 nights we were that into it. It ends up being a great murder mystery.
This is great
Its a great comedy and very funny. It's quirky and actually has a good crime mystery at its core. It's slightly off kilter and I like the variety of characters. It's well acted and great to have a varied female led cast. So refreshing to have something that has such a variety of female actors being able to flex.
Also, it's quite beautifully shot with some nice scenery.
I don't know why the reviews are so bad (I cam guess though), it doesn't warrant any of it. It can not be your cup of tea but to say its bad is a real stretch.
I've binged the first 3 episodes and can't wait for more.

I think this is probably quite marmite but personally I absolutely love it. It's sort of an Australian even-more-sweary Hot Fuzz? Madeleine Sami's character is definitely very loud and annoying but she is very clearly meant to be so; I think she's brilliant and it's a great counter-point to some of the more subtle humour in the show, which mainly comes from Kate Box's general air of competent resignation. The supporting cast are all excellent in their own ways too. It sort of gently takes the p*ss out of a lot of modern, very right-on culture but in a friendly way. I think this is a show that will become a cult classic - at least for me anyway! I can't wait for the next episodes.
A typical Aussie comedy with a dash of murder mystery! I could understand how it's not everyone's cup of tea, but it had my Mum and I in stitches. Parts of the story were, at times, predictable. However it almost feels like this was on purpose - in a way poking fun at the traditional murder mystery genre. I loved the diverse cast and seeing lots of familiar faces. Box definitely stands out as her character is probably the only "seriously" acted characher and she gives a great performance. I actually like the contrast between the Nordic style vibe and then the ridiculous Aussie acting. It's a bit of fun and an easy watch with a bit of mystery too. If you're easily entertained and still laugh at naughty words you'll get a kick out of it.
I don't get the negative reviews at all. This had me hooked and thoroughly entertained, laughing out loud many times. I love a dark comedy which this is. The characters are real people as opposed to unrealistic ones. Great acting and I hope they do more episodes. I had not seen any of these actors in anything else before but would definitely watch anything the main character's are in again. The term lingua amputo had me in stitches. This is raw, earthy, dark, funny and well written. Satirical and not like anything else I've seen before. Well done to all ... and as I say please let's have some more episodes!
