I have recently started watching this series because I had nothing else worthy of time. OK, I am on episode 17 of season 1 and it may be too soon to know what is actually going on. The concepts about life, death, altruism, love, compassion, cooperation and other good characters are OK. There are some points of philosophy too. Fortunately and to my surprise (for good) I did not witness sex scenes which occupy a large portion of movies and series these day so far. Violence is not excessive and there is no gore (maybe my versions are sanitized as I leave in a country where these scenes are expunged (fortunately).

BUT, can somebody please tell me from where the survivors obtained their dress, shirts, T shirts, and even Bikinis? In every episode I see these guts wear new ones as if they have just picked them up from the laundry on the corner of the street near the beach! And their haircut are neatly done, makeups meticulously done, beards carefully cropped and the sun does not burn their skin!

Am I too fault-finding or there is something about this series it is too early for me to know?

Am I too fault-finding?

Why this show receives such high rating is beyond me. Why this show got so much raves? What is so special about it, making it so highly-rated? There is nothing new in this series, but the same boring cliche, things that have been done to death. Humans being infected by some kind of bacteria, they turn into zombies, the zombies bite other humans, they become zombies too. Anything new here? The main female actor is so spoiled and irritating and she loves guns and violence. They embark on a journey through a post-apocalyptic landscape and encounter some boring individuals. Again, nothing new here.

I just dont understand why someone would like this boring overhyped piffle.

It can not be compared with Godless or 1883. They are far better. Honestly, the write or the director think we are stupid? Jacob Dutton and his cowboys put the noose around the neck of 5 adversary cowboys. Then mount them on horses and leave them so that the horses will start moving, and the cowboys will be dangling from the noose. They leave and four horses on which other cowboys are mounted start moving causing them to be hanged, except, Banner, His horse receives a divine message " Oh dont move because the series should go on". The horse does not move during the night and next morning the Divine Powers send another horse. Still the horse on which Banner is sitting does not move. The second horse comes along, "docks" to Banner in such a way that he (his hands are tied behind him!!!!) can take out a knife and cut the rope tying his hands !!!!. Still the horse does not move to hang Bannaer !!!.

Another scene: A hyene strikes terror among workers and civilians in a camp in Africa !!!. No one can get rid of him !!!! (despite all the civilians have guns!!!!!). They call for Spencer to help them rid of the hyena !!!!.

He comes with his disloyal fiancé (they just keep eating and devouring each other). They climbed a tree to avoid wild animals. In the tree they continue their hungry devouring of each other. When a lion pride and a clan of hyenas come to eat a dead elephant frightening the lustful couple in the tree, a convoy of armed men in cars come to rescue them. They easily dive off the pride of lions and hyenas (but they asked Spencer to come to help them rid of a single hyena!!!!!!)

Sometimes it takes only a few minutes to discover that a movie or series is good or bad. We have an ex-con released from prison to unleash a spree of senseless beatings and bullying and there are no cops around to be reported to or stop him. I just dont understand why Stallone had decided to be part of this series. Missing his roles in some of his rather good movies? He is old, heavily facelifted, creaky and wobbly. His joints are calcified, his limbs hardened with age he can not move like he used to in his movies when he was young. Stallone try to keep your dignity, you have had your time. Let the good memories be kept in the minds of your fans, do not ruin your once good reputation for the sake of some bucks.

I had long wanted to watch this series but I hesitated. Finally, I gave it a try and yes I really liked it. The plot and characters are good, acting is nice the suspension at the end of each episode made me want to watch the next one. However, I have one complaint which is about Season 03. The teenage girls (Bullet and the other one) interaction and lesbian tendencies of them was out of the place and irrelevant. There was too much time wasted on their relationship. The time could have spent on the police work of Linden and her colleague. Also, the interaction of the prison guard and the prisoner accuded of killing his wife was too much. But, yet, it is a good series.

When I stumbled across this documentary series, I got happy because I had been searching the net to find a new documentary (series) about wildlife. However, my expectations soon dashed to the ground. The episodes are in a great rush! Multiplce scenes of animals and insects are shown in a matter of seconds without dwelling on anyone of them for even a minute. One second the desert is scorched, next second we have thick billowing clouds and immediately rain for 5 seconds and then we have lush green meadow and the sun blazing down, all in ten seconds. Many scenes have been shown in other documentaries thousands of times, nothing new. AND, the narration is awful.

I really do not understand the ravings and the high score for this dull dreary and boring film. Honestly, what was in the mind of those behind creation of this garbage? The scenes are great, the music is wonderful, the houses are really beautiful. But, all this does not make a film good. First, what was wrong between these two main weirdos? Whar was the cause of their row and falling out? Where was the movie going? What was the point of the movie? What did the other guy chopped off his wingers? And yet he did not any pain no infection? Was he trying to show his love? Was a masochist? Honestly, I do not understand what was wrong with them and why this movie even was created.

Dont waste time on this silly dull movie.

Come on ! This guy and his pals go around the town and streets on a killing spree, using machine guns and machete, in broad daylight and at night, intimidating people with acid, not afraid of hiding his face when encounters the wife of one of his victims (he later found to be innocnet) and no one investigates all these crimes??? No police asks why all these killings happen? Who the perpetrators are? The smashed cars, bullets casings in the streets and no one raises any questions as to what all this is about?

Are you telling us that the australian police is so inefficnet? People are so indifferent in Australia? No one even notices this wild wild west rampage of killing and maining???? No DNA analysis, no fingerprinting, no hair alalysis? NOTHING???

I like the seriesm but not realistic at all.

I had high hopes for this series. However, when I started the first episode, half way through it I felt drowsy and my eyelids went heavy. Well, I struggled to finish the first episode. Then I said it might get better as the series progressed. NO, it became more boring and slower. From a so-called mysterious ship to an unpleasant mix of gay scenes to a woman grooming a Japanese girl to become a prostitute (all on a ship bound to journey to America !!!) and then a mutiny totally unmatching to all this mix. I continued my struggle to watch another episode, but the thing became a snoozefest. Then, I gave up and deleted the whole series off my laptop. I would not recommend this series, it is a dizzy amalgam of unmatching themes mixed to make a moring series.
