This show doesn't need to be any different than it is. The over the top craziness of the lines and the characters are more than enough entertainment for anyone. People who have critiqued this expecting a Bruce Willis type of action adventure just don't understand what this is about or where the entertainment factor lies in this show.

As far as action adventure goes, the stunts and the pace of the movie are great! It is full on fun and exciting. But it is not some macho style, take Barb Wire seriously as an action adventure. It actually is really cool and when people get over their judgement of Pamela Anderson and see the movie for what it is... light hearted entertainment... then they might enjoy it as much as I do. But then again, boobs seem to make men upset. They want to see boobs on someone that they think they can maybe imagine themselves with. And Barb Wire is not that woman. Her attitude doesn't lend itself to making men feel like they could rush in and save her.

This is probably one of the most obnoxious shows you will ever see on TV. It is like Trailer Park Boys, but everything at a faster, harder pace. I have tried to turn a lot of people on to this show, but as I am in the US, many of my friends feel it is hard to "follow" or complained they cant "get into it." But in my opinion, the pace is what makes the jokes work. So, if u want to enjoy this show, brush up on your ability to understand Australians so that you can enjoy this gem.

The basic setting is a neighborhood called Sunnyvale. And the main characters are constantly doing the "wrong" things. The cops are classic cat and mouse comedy. The characters get more charming as you get to know them.

This show is pretty good. I laughed out loud. But, there are a considerable number of eye roll themes to the show. For one, whenever the main character gets serious or excited she speaks like a little girl. Also, she has the moral compass of a child in an adult body. Everything is "simple" and "black and white". She tries to always be a silly goody two shoes, but she gets laid non stop. At 25 she is too immature to be an openly sexual person, but she really wants the other characters in the story and the audience to know that she has sex about three times a day. She pretty much coasts through her life by not really having any needs beyond the need to be liked, which at times can be incredibly overwhelming. Her flat mates are her friends. They cover a series of intimate issues by drinking and having sex. Pretty much everything can be solved in their life as long as it ends with alcohol and a romp in an untidy bedroom. She seems together at first, but the trajectory of her life is a downhill spiral of boyfriends who decrease in attractiveness and intelligence. Her career also circles the drain and she completely devalues herself by taking any old position that under pays. So if you are looking for something refreshing about a real woman being herself, this isn't the show for you. This woman is an earnest cliché of femininity. She flails around each day in hopes of convincing herself that the one dimensional cliché of a woman can be fulfilling and that her shallow understanding of her identity (a 1950s, ditzy blonde) is a unique and acceptable survival technique in modern American culture.
