The Slap

[Lilaclily]

Did anyone watch the first episode ? I thought it was really good, good to see bloke from gossip girl again, I forget his name , haven't read the book but looking forward to the rest of the series

Oooh..when's this on? I loved the book.

I've seen this series... Was brilliant... Had to buy it as I have no patience

I enjoyed it too.

When was this on and what channel?

What channel was this on - haven't seen it advertised. I enjoyed the book

Not sure what channel it's on... I bought it from Amazon

Lifetime channel
Second episode on at ten

It's a remake of an Aussie series that was on two or three years ago, I think. It was v.good, as I recall. As was the book.

The main character just seems to completely overact to me ( Zachary Quinto) which is disappointing & he's so unlikeable that the moral question doesn't really stack up as you just want him to get prosecuted (even though I thought the kid & his family were nightmare drama queens originally!).

I want to slp all of them

I hated the book,not even sure why I'm watching the series

I don't think it works as well see in America. I think Aussie culture was pretty central to the book and original to series. Well acted though. A great cast

I'm enjoying the US series, it's got a great cast, Uma thurman, thandie newton,

Watching e1 now

Not sure what to think tbh

Whether watch e2 or delete all off planner

This is growing on me now - enjoyed last week & this weeks episodes. Like the stories of the characters rather than the stuff about the Slap though!

"I think Aussie culture was pretty central to the book and original to series. "

I don't agree with that. There's a clash of cultures and while there is a nationality/ethnic component to it (macho Greek/Australian culture versus Australian "hippies") I thought it explored issues that are also relevant here. I don't know about USA.
