I tried Devs but fell asleep about halfway through the first episode. Still enjoying it LMA?

LMA wrote:Anyone watching Stateless on ABC? Based on the Baxter Detention Centre and Cornelia Rau. For those who live on LeFevre Peninsula will recognise a few places, namely the Monkey House, North Haven boat marina and parts of Wills St.

I watched the first episode.
Its on my list (lengthy list at the moment)

Interesting storyline but interest has waned after 4 episodes, I doubt I'll continue. Giving Westworld another crack, couldn't get into it a few years back.

'Based on true events produced by the ABC.
Watched it anyway, does the AGC have a core of 5 actresses that star in 3/5 of all their series?
Cornelia Rau was going to Rooster games around 2008 or so, still spoke with a German accent.

I've watched this, Secret City, Pine Gap, Glitch, Les Norton and Mr Inbetween fairly recently and can't recall seeing the same actresses in too many of them. Some were Foxtel though.

Halfway through it, pretty engrossing so far and some very good performances from a pretty damn impressive cast. Good to see plenty of Adelaide locations as well.

I finished it - really good show
I'd forgotten about Cornelia Rau until the Sheik mentioned her

Informer 3838.

I have never watched any of the underbelly/Fat Tony things before. I did tune in however to Informer 3838 on Monday night.

Really enjoyed it. Has it been made in a similar style to the other under belly series"?

Mystery Road back on ABC
Quality show

From what I've read, it adopts the same approach as other Underbellies. I'm not sure Nicola Gobbo ever looked as skinny as the lass who's playing her, though.

I tend to agree with you on the skinny bit. I am sure Gobbo would be fairly happy with the actress selection process that saw the girl who is portraying here appointed!

Yeah very similar, the Underbelly series were awesome especially the early ones, a must watch.

I watched this on iView the other night
It's worth putting on your list.

I think living over here has sparked my interest..... one of the gangland hits was in Templestowe.... that about 3 suburbs over from where I live. Makes it seem very real.

Just read a bit about this show, profiles the Thorpe affair in the UK, looks interesting.

Jimmy, dunno if you've seen this related sketch by Peter Cook - absolutely hilarious.

Yes - they showed it at the end of the programme so I checked it out

The series is as nutty as the Peter Cook parody

Seymour & Reyne going ok on the Music on the home front.. good stuff.

Finally got around to finishing the last two seasons of Ray Donovan. Season 5 had started to lose me a bit but 6 and 7 were awesome.

Now I read that Showtime have cancelled the series, when 1 more season would have wrapped it up anyway. Given the show was still rating well it seems an odd move, although no doubt there’d be reasons.

Bloody annoying when you invest in a half decent show and the producers cut it short
