Sleeper hit for me. Big fan. Helps that i recognise the landmarks without being smacked in the face by them. It's Sydney, but you'd hardly know it.

I read "Australian" and I read "black comedy". How does this compare to Wilfred ?

This is far better than I thought it was going to be. From the preview I honesty just thought it was going to be a sons of anarchy clone but it’s really quite good. I’m glad I gave it a shot.

Honestly I just wasn’t paying attention. It would often be right after a Mayans commercial and I didn’t think it looked all that great. The stuff with the Russian brother was hilarious in the most recent episode.

What a great little show and a good end to the season. The last episode was great for the underlying comedic effect of gently caress up criminals. FX has renewed it for a second season: https://variety.com/2018/tv/news/mr-inbetween-renewed-season-2-fx-foxtel-1202973801/ I'm glad Ray eventually got his dimsims.

Loved this! Did not realize just how much Australian slang I've never heard before, I imagine this must be what people outside the US feel like when they watch something like The Wire. Like I understand more or less what they mean, but don't know exactly what the gently caress they just said.

I really liked this. The 2 guys he was in the car with for the bulk of the last 2 episodes cracked me up. Quick question though. When he finds the guy on the payphone in the 5th episode, he says "Jack or Dog?" What did that mean? The movie this was based on, the Magician, is available on Amazon. I'm gonna give it a watch this weekend.

This was a nice, concise show from start to finish. It was nice watching something without filler and really enjoyed the main actor in this role. Hope he gets into more stuff!
