For the best part of 5 years, I watched all of the really good Australian shows, Rake, Janet king, Wanted, Jack Irish, Doctor, Doctor, The Doctor Blake Mysteries, etc. Now in one fell swoop, with the screening of 'Dead Lucky, all the previous good work has been wasted.. 'Dead Lucky' is intended to tick all of the boxes for it identified viewers, the liberal cultural apologists, to ensure they don't feel neglected. The screenplay on one episode I watched was woeful, the characters had no credibility or substance in any of the various groups included, and the acting was, at best, wooden, and at worse, painful to watch. This show is something that the BBC or Sky would produce and screen - I had firmly believed that the Australian producers held themselves aloof from the nauseating cultural pandering. There is no opportunity to rate this as 0/10, yet that would be a fair rating.
I shall continue to watch the tried and tested programmes, but will be increasingly wary of new shows.
score 1/10
