So far so good, to me Nz shows are boring but this is good, it's something different and it also has a great story line.

The tensions of blood families that are estranged versus crime/professional families that work together day to day are ratcheted up each episode so far. It's great to see Kiwis on screen being Kiwis.

I was actually quite surprised, I'm almost enjoying as much as SOA. And that's saying ALOT, because I was one of the original viewers. Way before the t-shirts and other paraphernalia came out (trashy, not flashy)!

I have 1 more episode left, & I'm definitely a fan. Yeah, it's a tad cheesy here & there but those Taz's is like us Cunuck's eh? Ya gotta like that!!

This overacted, stupid program was just ridiculous. I tried to watch it - TVNZ pushed it so hard with so much advertising, but the acting and the plotline were laughable at best. A massive fail all around. If I could give this a negative score I would. It's definitely not worth wasting your time to watch this rubbish.

There's so much to love here. Great cinematography, directing, fresh performances and writing that dares to be bold and big and yes, if you're going to integrate Shakespearian tragedy, at times melodramatic but that's refreshing because this story is King Lear meets MacBeth with some Julius Caesar ( I think that's coming?) overlaid with obvious aroha for a story about a protagonist seeking change and redemption; a gang leader trying to make change for the good in his own mismanaged way. In gangland (Pakeha, Maori, Italian, Russian, Chinese) that's never going to be an easy road to hoe. Hence we have a dramatic premise. This is a universal story given some unique culture specifics that work well - put it this way - does the world need another Italian mafia story? Not in my world but with this one I'm hooked.

PS - to mschuster-550104 - You're an actor, you don't get all the parts, get over it. Dumb move but at least you're honest I guess. Think twice next time e hoa.
