Season 1-3 was brilliant, I find that with Intl series the cast leaves and changes the character dynamics. Seldom do I see those actors go on to bigger and better & it really does a disservice to the audience when characters are written based on their relationships on screen. Season 4 brought on many new characters to fill the hole of Clair, Meg and Becky. None seemed to hit the mark. The character of Stevie is harsh almost to the point of uncomfortable to watch the actor, and the character of Kate has no personality and no presence on the screen. Kane was a shocking addition, he killed his flock of sheep because he was too lazy to treat the illness which was over the top. I could barely watch the show following the slaughter. I was more surprised at the characters response to this mass killing than the character Kane. I don't know if perhaps the writing staff changed from 4 on. The only salvation is Jodi, Tess and Dave as well as Harry & Alex. Those actors bring the scenes to life with wonderfully written personalities & acting, I do hope it get better!
score 5/10
