Tripping Over is good
After a very long time, I have finally found an Australian made drama that is addictive and worth watching. Most Aussie drama is not worth your time, and before coming to Australia, I used to watch Water rats and thought that most Aussie drama was as good. No such luck when I came over here and had to stick with American shows.
But Tripping Over on Ten is an excellent effort. It is very well written, directed, acted and produced and it's a shame that there are only six episodes, making it kinda of a mini-series more than a drama series.
It's a joint Aussie and British series, so that may be some reason for it breaking Aussie stereotypes. There are different stories of 5-6 people who have switched continents (England - Australia) and how their lives evolve after they holiday in Thailand and there is an accident.
Incidentally, Ten also has the locally made comedy Thank God You are here, which is a pretty smash hit and has been sold worldwide. Looks like Ten is on a good thing, as far as home grown entertainment is concerned.
