Mystery Road: Origin (2022)
Hate to be critical, but...
Contrary to all the glowing reviews, I thought the action was so slow that I could barely keep track of the plot line from week to week. Despite that, I loved the actor playing young Jay Swan. He is quite believable as an earlier vision of the brilliant older Swan. He was the only reason I persevered through all 6 episodes.
If this series had had a tighter plot line or fewer episodes to concentrate the flow of the story, it would have been greatly enhanced. I truly appreciate the Australian and New Zealand programmingon on acorn and especially those involving Aboriginal plot lines. It's an insight into challenging world, not unlike our US tribal nations struggles. I just wish this series' writing was half as good as Mystery Road.
Christmas on the Range (2019)
Good western Christmas drama
I really liked this story a lot. Good actors and the ranch feeling was authentic. Romeo and Juliet on horses...classic. Redemption at Christmas is an unusual plot but well played.
NCIS: Hawai'i (2021)
So disappointing...
As a huge fan of NCIS programs and Hawaii 5-0 we were very disappointed after the first 2 episodes of the new Hawaii show. Actors are uninteresting and I really don't care. The only character who seems real is the Navy captain. I'll give one more week and then ditch the program.
