I keep running into this awful, awful show as it is run between two good shows here in Australia. I have to say I am embarrassed for Rachael Griffiths, who is a very talented actress and who has generally appeared in pretty good stuff prior to this dross. She does her best with what she is given, but no-one is good enough to save this rubbish.
The stories are tedious, the characters completely unsympathetic, the dialogue ridiculous and the whole thing is so self-conscious that it makes me cringe. I do not understand what people see in this show at all. The fact that this is being lauded as quality drama just makes me despair for how far television has fallen.
