Just binge-watched this. (6 episodes). Refreshingly watchable being about a middle aged woman solicitor set in Melbourne.

Loving it; echoes of Kath & Kim!
Also so many familiar faces popping up, even "Marian, the couples therapist" Grin

Also puts me in mind of Bridesmaids and The Office 😂

Ray seems to be half asleep most of the time and quite lazy too

perrieFlora · 31/08/2023 10:03

Love Ray! Such a true character lazy slightly amusing , over it. Such a 50s male office cliche!!

Five Bedrooms (made by same people who did Offspring) on BBC iPlayer is also a good Aussie drama / with humour / about 5 people who pool together to buy a house and live together

Thanks for the recommendation. Gonna put this on my list to watch.

Roz's super-hearing reminded me of Mandy from This Country 😁

Yep! So true

Hmm, but her winning against the shock jock doesn't change the damage done by shock jock TV, does it?

It's very glib. It's very Australian. As am I.

Anyone know if there is to be a series 3? We felt the end of series two felt...final.

I loved the 'finders, keepers' thought it was a sweet ending with her bringing the dog back 🙂

ThePoshUns · 27/12/2023 11:22

I've just discovered this on Netflix and absolutely love it. So many great characters.
Loved the Chinese grandmother letting herself in to the air b'n'b.

Absolutely. Lovely little twist.

Sagealicious · 28/12/2023 06:47

There will be a season 3.

Downunderduchess · 28/12/2023 07:02

Is that with Kitty Flanagan? Her stand up comedy is great, she’s got a few I think that I’ve watched on TV.

ThePoshUns · 28/12/2023 08:24

I'll have to check it out, I think she's brilliant

After reading this thread this morning, I watched 4 episodes today and plan on finishing it tomorrow as we are going to friends for dinner this evening. I really liked it-Helen is very relatable, and there have been some laugh out moments, such as when Helen asked the Alexa type device (couldn’t catch the name!) to find the Dark Web🤣🤣🤣, and some very funny moments in the episode with Penny.

Procrastination4 · 29/12/2023 09:37

Just realised that Season 2 is also on Netflix. That’s me sorted until New Year, then.🤣

Yes loved fisk!

IcedPurple · 30/12/2023 13:51

Fisk, for me, is not usually laugh out loud funny like Kath and Kim.

But it's a nice gentle watch. Refreshing to see a legal drama set in a very mundane context, which is probably the norm, rather than the supposed wit of the courtroom or complex, ethically sensitive cases.

I do love Fisk and her brown suit and Roz with her colour coordinated faux Chanel blazers!

CountryShepherd · 04/04/2024 23:43

I introduced my 30 year old DS to Fisk, I've gone way up in his estimation re my comedy tastes.

MrsLargeEmbodied · 05/04/2024 12:29

thanks for the recommendation.
needed the laugh and this provided it!

ginislife · 05/05/2024 09:24

Does anyone know when series 3 is happening ?

MrsLargeEmbodied · 05/05/2024 10:58

i got the impression it was finished.
