I liked the original Mystery Road with Arron Pederson and was reluctant at first to watch the 2022 version. Was I wrong! Episode One was slow and I wasn't too impressed, but the story got better and better episode by episode. I binge watched the entire season last night until 5 a.m. This morning. Wow! What a performance by the entire cast! So much to learn about Australia's outback, the people, the challenges of native Aborigines, and the not so subtle racism. Mystery Road: Origin is complete with suspense, action, romance, corruption, crime, and amazing photography of the outback. There are people you'll absolutely despise in the beginning, like the dad, brother, the mob, but in the end you'll cherish them. There are moments of frustration that made me want to stop watching Mystery Road, but at the same time kept me watching hoping some of the characters "get theirs" and they did!
