Territory

We really enjoyed this series. Great actors. We loved Robert Taylor in Longmeier, he makes a great western style old and crusty guy. Anna Torv is wonderful as a complex female adversary. We loved her on Fringe but didn't realize she was Australian because she dropped her accent. Same for Michael Dorman who was in For All Mankind. It's pretty amazing how U. K. and Australian/NZ actors can drop their accents and sound so American.

It's nice to have shows set in nature, rather than concrete cities and constant violence.

If you liked Yellowstone, you'll like this.

I really hope there's a season 2.

Reading some of the reviews here and had to give my opinion, because people may miss out on a terrific watch. It may just be some people are just expecting too much from these shows, but if you fancy a few hours watching great acting by great (don't have to be popular) characters, plenty of storylines to get on with, drama, violence, emotion, scenery, and escape from city life, then please don't miss out. Don't watch it to compare to other shows. View territory on its own merits. From the very start it grips and the thrills and spills don't end to the very last scene, and as the credits rolled, I'm sat here thinking please get season 2 out as quick as possible. I'm already missing this fabulous entertaining show.

This show is filled with amazing talent and the backdrop is beautiful.

The plot is believable and easy to follow but the characters are difficult to like. It wasn't until episode 5 any of them showed any sign of redemption. It was just so hard to root for anyone.

The entire premise of the show is tragedy upon tragedy. Episode 5 brings a reunion of sorts then bam... more tragedy.

There are only 6 episodes and perhaps episode 6 is what brings it all together but honestly, I was so thoroughly depressed after the 1st 5 episodes I couldn't take anymore.

There is such a lack of balance between hope and despair. It wasn't an enjoyable watch for me at all. I only stuck it out as far as I did because I'm such a fan of some of the actors and actresses.

Really hard to understand the great reviews here. It's clear they have tried to make their version of Yellowstone, but have failed miserably. My wife stopped watching after two episodes, I probably should have too. Yellowstone is my favorite show, so I was very excited to watch this, but it stupid, it's not funny. It's amazing how easy it is to steal everything in this show, helicopter, cattle and quads. It's just so stupid, no repercussions whatsoever. I will finish series, but probably won't watch additional series.

And I still need another 77 characters to even submit this review. It's the reason I dont submit reviews here, just ridiculous criteria.

There are shows you start watching and have high hopes for. This show is about a family owning a very large amount of land in the outback of Oz . Which could make for a lovely scenic drama. The land and it's charisma is unfortunately ruined by extremely poor script writing. It's very over dramatic, has characters that are borderline charicatures and there's way too much totally unbeleivable stuff happening. While as a viewer you want to be swept up by a story about a family that has characters with depth and and complexity. They try that but the characters fail to form a family you engage with. There's way too much crime and drama happening, which again is poorly written.

Apparently people just constantly shoot, rob and hurt each other in the big land down under.

So I really wanted to like this, but the writers made this a second rate crime show that despite some great actors doesn't deserve a high rating.

I will however have hope for a second season if they dial the drama and violence back a lot, and let some intelligent people do the writing. There is a foundation with the scenery and a good cast they can build on. But that's it.
