C*A*U*G*H*T

Between Karl having his fat head in the shots and poor Sean Penn (how did they manage to sell this 💩 to him to be in appearance) comedy show that wasn't even funny in the first 10 minutes let alone entirety of the program- with poor acting and writing why on earth is Australia and Stan promoting this garbage.

Low IQ humour that's outdated and only a bogan would still find funny, with cringe acting with a poor script and forced humour is the go to now it seems for streaming services and their promoted shows,this is an embarrassment and not funny at all but again it's rare to find decent content in streaming services nowadays.

First few episodes were funny, a bit cringe but still got a chuckle out of it. Liked the cast and genuinely seemed like they were vibing. Then things took a weird turn by episode 4... why did we have to see a man sucking a bullet out of another man's gouch? We quickly hit shock value, and the plot just goes down hill from there.

Really hoped things would improve in the final two episodes, but alas it did not. All the promising ideas and plot points from the first episode quickly get thrown out the window for dick jokes. The actors all seemed to be giving their all, but the plot just fell apart my so quickly, like a snake eating it's own tail.

This show went from bad to worse so quickly... not sure what they told Sean Penn this show was to convince him to be part of this but I could bet money this wasn't it. Also Ragnar from Vikings appears for a hot minute, but does nothing to improve this hot mess.

I don't know the actors in the cast except Matthew Fox ,but they seem to have a lot of chemistry. Four Australian soldiers sent on a mission to a war-torn country are captured by freedom fighters and produce a hostage video that goes viral.

Caught is a nice, funny and dynamic comedy. I don't agree with anyone who says it's terrible. I am very happy to see Matthew Fox again in his new series, always a great professional actor who does not deny himself. He deserves everything he didn't get in the past.

Finally Fox in another version .He is versatile. I hope he will have good projects .Good Promotion .Stanoriginals has Big jobs.

This series is so bad, one wonders if its purpose transcends conventional expectations. Could it be a deliberate endeavour to craft the epitome of rubbish television in the streaming era? Potentially this stellar cast, in this fanciful scenario, willingly embraces the challenge under the persuasive guidance of a showrunner who pitches the joyous creation of intentional terrible TV. An inside industry joke, perhaps, where the allure lies in deviating from the pursuit of excellence and relishing the unique thrill of producing a fantastically terrible piece of television. In this whimsical pursuit, the cast, with their remarkable talents, breathes life into intentionally absurd narratives, blurring the lines between satire and sincerity. If this were indeed a clandestine effort to redefine the boundaries of televised storytelling, then kudos to all involved for navigating this uncharted territory with audacious rubbish.

I was really looking forward to this show based on the trailer, but wow, was that trailer misleading.

We barely made it to episode 4 (mind you, this was against the will of the majority of our household who wanted us to stop at the end of ep 2) but we had to switch it off at that point. The acting was just awful throughout, genuinely really hard to watch and some of the scenes were incredibly tone deaf. The attempted humour missed the mark on nearly every occasion.

Overall it was just pretty poor and not entertaining at all. The cameos were weird & didn't add anything except make me wonder how they got roped into it.

I wouldn't even normally bother with a review for something I didn't like, but this was so annoyingly bad I was still resentful of the time I wasted watching it hours later so yeah, that's how this review came about.
