Gold Diggers

If you like other UK comedies like Plebs, or US shows like Miracle Workers, this feels like the closest we've come to a home grown Australian version of these modern period comedies. Episodes are short and sweet and easy to chew through. It's fantastic to see some brilliant up and coming female and indigenous talent getting the airtime they deserve. It's not a deep and heavy storyline, but it does exactly what it says on the tin. Gold Diggers jumps straight in from episode 1 and sets you up for what to expect throughout. There are some great under-the-radar quick lines which had us laughing enough to require a rewind to hear what we missed. Looking forward to the rest of the season and hopefully seasons to come.

An easy to watch show that draws you in with its crazy and funny characters, each with distinct personalities. As the scene was set I was a little confused with what was happening but soon saw the spin Jack Yabsley had put on the gold rush story. The main characters soon have you laughing at their quick one liners and modern twist to the old times. The pub scenes were my favourite with the background characters really setting the scene making the sisters come to life. I can't wait to watch the next episodes to see what the sisters get up to and the trouble they stir up. The local cop is my favourite character so far. Such a refreshing light comedy.

It's refreshing to see a show not take itself so seriously! And despite some of these other reviews, I personally love that it's a bit childish, and super crass - I feel like it appeals to us who grew up loving stuff like The Simpsons, or Anchorman, or Austin Powers. Yes those are old references, but those are things that appealed to my humour when I was younger and so does this. It's just fun. Love it. Great job.

The two main characters rightfully steal the show, these are some seriously talented comediennes.

And love the ensemble cast, particularly Percy and Fran. So many great one-liners. Worth a watch.

Perplexed by some of these reviews. Maybe everyone reviewing is just old and likes their comedy traditional? I also enjoy Utopia and Fisk too. But they are not trying anything new. I love that Gold Diggers is such a smart contemporary conversation about feminism and race in an 1800's setting and best of all its so funny!. Series hits its stride in Ep 3 with the bushranger soft boi's. Danielle Walker and Claire Lovering are a hoot and have perfect chemistry. And some great secondary roles by Megan Wilding and Eddie Perfect. This is surprising, fresh comedy that is irreverent, unconventional and sometimes smutty but always funny!

Easy watching, entertaining, liked the contemporary references in a traditional setting.

Liked the music, cool contrast to the period setting, making it a little fun and interesting

Liked the quirky, witty feel and a little different from other series. I look forward to seeing where the story line goes and how characters are further developed.

Thought the pace was good, moved along nicely. Easy to watch and follow. Got straight into things. Enjoyed the Aussie landscape and setting.

Great to see new talent hit the screen, mixed with some familiar actors. Fresh, different

I'll be tuning in again.
