This series is simply sublime. Not only does it have a unique ability to keep the audience enthralled whilst only revealing small snippets of information of the characters lives like peeling back layers from an onion, it manages to do it in such a uniquely, stunningly, at times comedic and at other times devastating way. This series will leave an indelible mark on anyone who watches it. It is raw, clever, artistic, intelligent, funny, pure, beautiful, imaginative and real. I have to say it is one of my favourite Television series of all time. I can't even see an Ad for it it without smiling and becoming moved by it. Let's hope that Tim Minchin and everyone involved continue to act in Australia and make more wonderful series like this in Australia. Well done to Foxtel for funding this! This is something to be proud of! Thank you so much for giving us all this series to enjoy!

Superb. Compelling. Funny. Emotional. Just got better and better with every episode. The best of Oz filming. Tim Minchin and Milly were absolutely absolutely absolutely superb.

I have never taken the time to write a review for a show. But this one truly touched me. I'm in the U.S. and was able to see it and its sad to think that I could have missed it. Milly blew my mind with her performance, for someone her age to project such a range of emotions it was just incredible, She has such a bright future. And Tim, I expected good, but damn. Excellent job sir, an amazingly complex character that you couldn't help but love. The two of you are an excellent duo. Thank you.

I can't imagine what is going on in the minds of the few low rating reviews. This is top-notch TV. It is, as intended, frequently comedic and in places hilarious, but the unfolding of the three main characters (including the piano) and their secrets and histories is delightful, done via odd but believable encounters with various groups of quirky incidental characters which occur in mostly remote, often amusing and sometimes quite stunning locations. The direction and camera work is great too, infusing the austerity of Australian outback with colour and life.

This show is nothing new in terms of format. Your typical getting from a to b with some hyjinx along the way. However the onscreen chemistry between lucky and Meg are what elevates this show to deeply funny and emotional ride across the breathtaking aus outback.

I didn't do any research before watching and went in blind but I was not disappointed. Equal parts hilarity and pure emotion and the season finale had me in bits.

Highly recommend and the soundtrack is suitably stunning.
