C*A*U*G*H*T

If you are expecting anything serious lower your expectations and chill out a little, it's not Schindler's list.

On the silly side and with fun cultural jokes.

The later episodes have some good meta humour which made me laugh out loud.

Maybe sided towards the Australian sense of humour.

Some say it's dated humour but hey if you just enjoy it for what It is you will have fun.

They did well with the hyperbole differences between Americans and Australians, poking fun at both.

There seems to be a little bit of a message of the over celebrated hero distracting from the greater cause, maybe lost in the silliness but still noticeable.

Overall I enjoyed the experience and worth a watch if you ain't the comedy police.

I am surprised at all the negativity about a series which is obviously a send-up, hence the corny (bad) acting and often silly scenes. However, it is often a lot of fun (with some laugh out loud moments), and yes, some scenes are in bad taste (but these are in the minority). The "downunder" actors Bryan Brown, Erik Thomson and Lincoln Younes are particularly funny in their "against type" roles, and the inclusion of American stars, Sean Penn, Susan Sarandon, Nicholas Hammond, and Matthew Fox, make the series attractive to international audiences. I hope that if there is a DVD version it includes outtakes, as I suspect the cast found it hard not to break into laughter during the filming of most scenes.

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.

This series isn't for everyone. It's crude, silly, childish and at times pretty disgusting. The writing is hectic and the plot is at times, so random that sometimes I wasn't sure what was going on.

However, it's the first time I've laughed out loud at a show in ages. And I ended up watching all of the episodes.

The casting is spot on and there's some good cameos (Susan Sarandon, Silvia Colloca, and Travis Fimmell is unrecognisable).

If you're looking for subtle, witty, understated humour, look elsewhere. If you're ok watching something stupid funny, (think Will Ferrell or an early Adam Sandler movie) press play.
