Aussie TV recommendations please

[VivaciousRadish]

After loving 5 Bedrooms, Colin From Accounts, Wanted, the Newsreader, Bump and The Heart Guy I’m looking for more Aussie stuff

I also loved Frayed and was watching 800 words, but can’t find it now

We tried Back to the Rafters, but couldn’t really get into it. It’s a continuation of something else, and I think probably better if you’ve seen that!

Any recommendations very gratefully received. We have Prime, Netflix, Disney and BritBox, also a free months Apple TV. I don’t mind paying for Acorn if there’s a few things

TV series’s preferred but I love rubbishy Christmas type films too

Thank you!

@Optimist1 thanks, I'll see if I can find Crownies on that too.🙂

The Moodys, a comedy series, it's got the guy from Colin from Accounts in it - Patrick Brammall - it's funny 👍🏼

Fisk, five rooms

Rosehaven - brilliant and funny actors, not sure where it’s on though. Set in Tasmania

Australian Survivor. On prime.

Seachange (an oldie but a real goodie)
also second Love My Way, Secret Life of Us, Offspring

theres a new(ish) Claudia Karvan show called Bump

theres loads of good movies too that never make it to big distribution in the UK

Definitely Fisk, love Kitty Flanagan. Utopia is funny too.

The newsreader - BBC

Scrublands BBC4

Don't think anyone has mentioned Rake. One of my very favourite programmes. Richard Roxburgh is a defence lawyer with self destructive tendencies tackling cases in Sydney. Very funny at times. 5 seasons but not sure if its available at the moment.

Wilfred

Fisk
Rosehaven
The Strange Calls - not recent. Funny non-serious police six-parter
Glitch
Laid

My Life is Murder

I’ll second Mystery Road series 1, and Mystery Road Origins.

I’ll also second The Letdown - funny and felt very real.

Tangle - it’s a bit older but very good, imo.

Jack Irish series: if no one mentioned it already. A Detective tv series with Guy Pearce as the lead, and a greatv supporting cast.

The Dressmaker - Not a tv series and everyone has probably seen it, but I watched it again v recently and loved it again - Kate Winslett and Judy Davis as the leads.

I’ll add in Troppo. It wasn’t great tv but worth watching imo.

Can’t remember the name but I think it’s still on iplayer- the one with Jenna Coleman and the missing baby.

Oh, the documentary series. - ‘Last stop Lagartha’

Offspring isn’t on Netflix anymore sadly.
so good although the first couple of episodes looked a bit dated and ropey. I loved it!

I agree with pp The Letdown is good,only two series tho.

There is a new drama called One Night which is new on Paramount+ today

Has anyone mentioned Kath & Kim yet?

Without looking for it I think It was called ‘The Cry’

Mystery Road (cop drama)
Anything with Patrick Brammall: No Offence, Glitch, The Moodys
The Letdown (motherhood)
Wellmania (the adorable Celeste Barber)

Fisk! You'll love it

Agree with:
Fisk - you'll like if you enjoyed Colin
Mystery Road - beautiful and gripping
The Letdown - amusing
Black Snow - not finished yet but enjoying so far
