Irreverent

Selfish guy on the run, lands in a lovely small coastal town (with spectacular views) and starts to care about the residents.

This is a great show, easy to watch that is funny, warm and very engaging because of the characters.

Every episode you learn more and more about the characters, ad it never really seems forced, but it does mean that every episode you feel a little more invested.

Its seemingly a dimple idea but they get a lot of plates spinning so its very bingeable as others have said. You want to know what each plate will do next but also there is a lot of heart.

Give this show a go, its free!

(oh, Maso?! Maso?! Maso!)

I loved the opening scene in far north Queensland. Yes its a comedic exaggeration of reality, but it does show the beauty and the - possible - terror of that location.

It probably helps that I watched the first episode with very low expectations. The basic premise, criminal switches identity with priest, has been done many times before. Also, despite how funny Australians are, Australian comedies are often awful.

I wanted light entertainment, and thus far, Irrevent is just that.

Many familiar faces in the cast, and luckily none that elicit an "expletive no, not him/her again", reaction from me.

The lead actor I thought very good at playing a reprobate low level criminal with a handsome face. By that I mean his face doesn't work against the role. Pretty, is often pretty bland. Not this time.

So far, good, light, fun.

I thoroughly enjoyed this series. I found it funny, quirky with dry humor. The actors are believable and entertaining. I do see that several reviewers do not agree with me but I see several do agree that it is a great series. Some people do not appreciate witty, dry humor. And for those that don't, I am sure this show is a disappointment. I found the location and scenery beautiful which made the show even more entertaining. I am glad that Peacock took a chance on producing this somewhat unusual series because it made a weekend of binge watching fun. I am hopefully for a second season because I enjoyed the show.

Okay I approached this with trepidation. Looked like a series trying to have more cliches than Crocodile Dundee. But surprisingly the more I got into it the less I thought of it as stereotypical Australian tv show. Yes the mob guys are a bit unrealistic, the original ex rev going Zumba is stupid, but the character development of the rest of the cast as it goes on is good and the scenery is great to watch. Worth more than the low ratings it has received. Overall it is worth a watch if looking for something to invest a bit of time in. With different characters it keeps it interesting and makes a nice change from the normal tv series.

Follows an ensemble cast of believable eccentrics and is set in a very country part of Far North Queensland that is over four hours drive from the capital. It is a place where crocodiles are a far greater risk than sharks and cassowaries even more so.

Irreverent is a delightfully oddball comedy with some nice scenery to back it up. It follows in the path of several other eccentric Australian comedy / dramas. The show has a good twist on the familiar 'road to redemption' story. It shows the clueless city person who may be well-adapted to an urban existence, but has little awareness of life in the world outside their usual confines. We are looking forward to seeing more of it.
