Last Days of the Space Age

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.

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!

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.

This is not historically accurate, so go into knowing that.

What is true about Perth in 1979 - Miss Universe contest was held, there was industrial action, and Skylab did come crashing back to Earth.

Also in the show there is (sort of) another incident that happened in 1979, but this other incident happened in Sydney.

Writers have bought this Sydney incident, massaged it a lot, and put it into the Miss Universe plotline.

Performances are all great. Not really sure why Iain Glen is in this (to flog it to the UK I suppose??), but does a good job. Radha Mitchell can only do so much with the writing she is given. For the most part, handles things, but she is on a hiding to nothing.

Deborah Mailman and Jesse Spencer have the more meatier roles, and both go on a bit of a journey.

The younger actors all do well.

Unfortunately the writing lets it down. This is besides the widely historical inaccurate story, which I can deal with. It is fiction, for the most part, after all.

White hat/black hat syndrome. "Bad" guys are just cut out cardboard characters. Poor Sam Delich must be wondering if he is being type cast, as I recently saw him in "Territory" in a similar role. Least he had more to do that series than this.

Here we go again I don't know what's wrong with people honestly I swear I don't this should not be below a seven for sure it's a really good series and good acting with good actors sincerely playing their roles roles that tell a story of a time and place which seems perfectly realistic to me and yeah oh yeah it does cover some topics about Aboriginal people and their suffering that are still relevant I'm quite sure today but some people just don't want to be bothered with it and it also has family family family stories a Russian beauty queen of Vietnamese family who are struggling yeah they're all struggling just like me just like we give it a chance it's beautifully filmed and they are good stories even if sometimes they seem scripted so it is that life is such and art mirrors life.
