Last Days of the Space Age

With so much content on streaming, it's refreshing to watch an original series especially from Disney. Straight and simple, it's a great new series! I don't understand why people are always the same and pick on the minor things! It's full of interesting fresh characters rather than the same old safe format!! Characters like Eileen and Lam are fantastic to watch. Tilly's story is great would love to see Tilly and Lam find the Skylab debris in the second season!! Seriously this series CAN NOT be a limited series! This show deserves a second run at least!!

David Chidlow you amazing man. Thank you for telling such a warm, exciting and fresh story!!

Bharat you are a genius director! I throughly enjoyed your first two episodes. Such skill and care taken to showcase such a beautiful story, time and characters.

Disney it would be amazing if there was a second series as I am now invested in the characters and story.

At a time when we're all fed superhero's, adaptations and existing IP over and over again, it's so great to watch something new, human, fresh and real. And the fact that this extraordinary series of events all happened in Perth at this time is so quirky and unlikely - a great premise upon which to base this drama.

The cast are amazing - I've never been too fussed about Radha Mitchell or Jesse Spencer before, but their performances are so convincing, as are those from the rest of a really strong ensemble cast. Especially Deb Mailman who is as good as ever.

I wasn't in Perth in '79 so can't comment on how realistic this rendition of it actually is. But I'm digging the 70s vibes generally, and the humanity and warmth in this show. The music is excellent too. They've really done their research and used some banging tracks.

The families they've portrayed are grappling with so many issues relevant today. It's very lovingly and sensitively portrayed.

The second half of the series really ramps up - worth watching.

I sort of understand what the crew were thinking and trying to do when they were creating this series but it did not work at all. I found it difficult to watch this series and I am sure other viewers do as well. The storyline throughout this entire series was poor and weak and did not have enough direction. The cast selection throughout this entire series could have been a whole lot better and stronger. They did not at all commit nor connect to the storyline nor to their respective characters. There was not any sign of real chemistry displayed throughout this entire series between the cast members.

The reviews are not doing the series justice. Recall (mentioned by this reviewer and others) that our current obsession with feeding the "maw" of streaming media has resulted in a great deal of product which should have been done as film ending up crammed into a series format. Yes, there are flaws and weak spots. But taken as a whole, top to bottom, tip to tail, this series is an excellent, bittersweet, coming of age story for people, and possibly a country as well. The ending in particular is spectacular, the actors are brilliant, and there are scenes you will never forget. ((Designated "IMDb Top Reviewer."

I had been waiting for a new show, waiting for refreshing new content. Last Days of The Space Age fulfils my binging needs. It's quite nice to be transported to another era with great costumes and a super disco soundtrack to add.

Hats off to the creator for introducing us to the beautiful line up of interesting new characters that are totally relatable and inspiring. A stellar line up of great actors but the stand out characters for me, were Eileen, Lam and Mick. These character's story lines were so interesting and brave, unsung heroes!

It ticked all the entertainment boxes for me and my family. I loved the melting pot of cultures, faces, accents and just the celebration of community and what it means to be there for each other. I watched the entire series in one go and couldn't get enough.

Please, please, please release a second season, you can't leave us hanging - I will wait but hope Disney doesn't take too long. Thank you for the magic!
