A Remarkable Place to Die

This is a good show, it builds slowly but has a thread running through it that holds your attention well. I'm just disappointed that only four episodes have been released so far as it left a huge cliff hanger, just when we were getting the answers we needed. Nice range of established NZ actors and new comers too. The scenery of New Zealand's South Island is just exquisite, it becomes another character in the show. I like the 90 minutes episode format, it gives a lot of time to build for the storyline of the episode and the running thread. I will look out for the next lot of episodes to be released.

I enjoyed the first episode very much. The New Zealand scenery is a huge bonus and the South Island of such great beauty, it adds to the atmosphere. I enjoy seeing different actors rather than the UK and USA actors I so often watch. I have seen Ms. Gibney in other series and she is always a great addition . There was a mystery to solve but also an ongoing one that will tie things and people to the plot line. And no car chases at least not yet. I certainly will continue with season one as it becomes available and hope for more. Chelsie Preston Crawford is most convincing in the role of Anais Mallory.

I truly enjoy the story and the scenic beauty. The first 3 episodes were great... I am waiting for the last episode to hopefully tie up the ends of the story. The characters are rich, and the location is great. It encourages made it to explore the history of the regions and to understand what was going on there as well as in my own country, I appreciate seeing law-enforcement in other countries and how they handle crimes . I have family that lived in Sydney Australia, and this makes me want to visit and see New Zealand. The beauty there in some of the scenes is spectacular, and I would hope that some of the stories about its history would continue.

I am always looking for a new show that holds my attention and makes me want more when I'm up to date on my watching, and was delighted to find this show. So many times, I watch two or three episodes and I'm bored. That didn't happen with this show. The New Zealand landscape is breathtaking. The characters are well filled out. This show fits the bill. Spectacular cast and very good story line. Hopefully many more seasons to come. I think they have a winner here. Chelsie Preston Crayford was unknown to me, and she is really spectacular in this role. Matt Whelan is great as her partner. There's not a character on this show that was poorly cast. Thank you for this.

Thank you Acorn TV for another wonderful mystery series. I'm picky about mystery series. If I can figure out who-done-it in the first five minutes, I'll lose interest fast. This series is wonderful since it solves a mystery with each episode, but has an ongoing additional mystery that flows throughout the season.

I really like all of the main characters and they're portrayed as normal human beings with admiral qualities and flaws. Constable Jarrod's character adds a touch of humor and sympathy with his bumbling and inexperience. Jarrod's character reminds me of Sgt. Troy from Midsomer Murders.

The main thing I would change about this show is the elimination of the "F" bomb from all the scripts. It's completely unnecessary and far too reminiscent of the garbage Hollywood slops to the public. Certainly Acorn TV is miles above that. What's the point of walking in the gutter if you don't have to. I would also make the fight scenes a touch more realistic for the main character, but this is a small item.

Good stories, nice twists and turns, great character development, beautiful scenery, and surprising who-done-its, plus good acting. This is what good television is meant to be. Thanks Acorn!
