A Remarkable Place to Die

I loved the slow build. People want everything served up in a neat, fast package. The real goal is to enjoy the storytelling and the journey to the end. I can't wait for episode 2. Hopefully there will be more than 4 episodes.

The scenery was amazing as well. Definitely added to the story. Acting was good at all levels. I don't believe there was a supporting character that wasn't believable . Which sadly isn't the case with a lot of shows anymore. Usually there's an actor that's cringe worthy or they've built an absurd character into the show on purpose. Either way it distracts from the show and that wasn't the case here.

This is a good show, it builds slowly but has a thread running through it that holds your attention well. I'm just disappointed that only four episodes have been released so far as it left a huge cliff hanger, just when we were getting the answers we needed. Nice range of established NZ actors and new comers too. The scenery of New Zealand's South Island is just exquisite, it becomes another character in the show. I like the 90 minutes episode format, it gives a lot of time to build for the storyline of the episode and the running thread. I will look out for the next lot of episodes to be released.

I enjoyed the first episode very much. The New Zealand scenery is a huge bonus and the South Island of such great beauty, it adds to the atmosphere. I enjoy seeing different actors rather than the UK and USA actors I so often watch. I have seen Ms. Gibney in other series and she is always a great addition . There was a mystery to solve but also an ongoing one that will tie things and people to the plot line. And no car chases at least not yet. I certainly will continue with season one as it becomes available and hope for more. Chelsie Preston Crawford is most convincing in the role of Anais Mallory.

We're enjoying the show very much. The lead characters build and fall into jovial, professional and sometimes quirky relationships. Two mysteries build. One quickly, one long term. It has a thread running through it that holds your attention well. AcornTV only has the first two episodes available. We need the other two. Nice range of established NZ actors from 800 Words, Under the Vines, Brokenwood, and My Life is Murder. New Zealand's South Island is just exquisite, it becomes another character in the show. I like the 90 minutes episode format, it gives a lot of time to build for the storyline of the episode and the running thread. I will look out for the next lot of episodes to be released.

I am always looking for a new show that holds my attention and makes me want more when I'm up to date on my watching, and was delighted to find this show. So many times, I watch two or three episodes and I'm bored. That didn't happen with this show. The New Zealand landscape is breathtaking. The characters are well filled out. This show fits the bill. Spectacular cast and very good story line. Hopefully many more seasons to come. I think they have a winner here. Chelsie Preston Crayford was unknown to me, and she is really spectacular in this role. Matt Whelan is great as her partner. There's not a character on this show that was poorly cast. Thank you for this.
