I grew up watching this show and over the years the standard seems to be sinking lower and lower. The script writers and cast have lost the plot and understanding of what it means to act or to create drama. Every episode is the same... and it lacks so much continuity in the storylines or character development or interest. Every episode seems to be whatever now and all results in instant forced hook ups, and cheating. I just can't believe how trashy this soap is getting, it's become cheaper than the dollar store. As a show that represents NZ it discriminates so much of the population, and in the recent episodes there seems to be a lot of white supremist themes, bad talk about religion, and just overally degrading and insensitive to people with mental health. Besides having the "get over it" personality why not do research and make it more factual and nuturing and highlight what someone actually goes through than to rush it. I can't wait for this show to be canned it's just so bad. I don't think I can stand another episode tbh
