I really enjoyed this Aussie show. I could easily watch it again. Great Cast and Stories. I watched in a few days. Hope there is another season soon. Really feel it deserves 10/10. I was very impressed with the overall dialogue and loved the big guy playing Les Norton, Alexander Bertrand, David Wenham is a legend in Aussie films. Rebel Wilson is such a great actress and comedian.. Overall great.
Genres Additionally, Alexander Bertrandsuch a big cuddly bear but boy can he throw a punch or two.
