    Great family television

    Like many others who love Sci-Fi and/or Fantasy TV and movies there's little around at present to interest me. So when I read the synopsis for this show on another site it looked interesting enough to give it a chance. Even though I had no idea initially that it was targeted at teenagers it quickly became obvious that they were the target audience. Regardless I continued to watch and after a few episode of series 1 I was pleased I did. The young actors started off looking a bit nervous and tentative but I was pleased to see their confidence in their roles develop and quickly they were very good indeed. As is common the adult actors did their part in making the shows very watchable.

    The story lines were strong and after each episode left you wanting to see what happens next. The special effects were good and were used very well to add to the production values of the show. As a person who left their teenage years decades ago it was very watchable and much better than a load of TV series being broadcast at present. A show that will please everyone in the family. Of its kind I'd classify it as exceptional.

    The first two seasons are ok. The third was bad

    The show is OK. It could be very good.. But unfortunately the acting is terrible.

    If they made a remake of this show where they had some good actors, better visual effects, and a little better dialogs... Then this show could be awesome

    The third season is terribl.

    Seasons 1-2 and 3-4 should be rated separately.

    Season 1-2 was very good and enjoyable to watch. Season 3-4 only cares about identity politics and the story takes second place.

    This should be considered a whole different show and be rated separately, because it feels like the last two season are taking the credit given to the first two seasons. Most rating high on here are for the first two seasons.

    Refreshing

    The show is nicely done. Actors are well cast. I don't think I could pick just one, all four of them really fit the roles. Dialog is age appropriate and, although there are some stereotypes, they had been written well and in funny manner.

    I really enjoy each and every episode of the show, and the fact that there is real dose of unpredictability. There is magic. There is science. Unlike other shows of similar type, which base either on one or another, "Nowhere Boys" really allow themselves large spectrum of possibilities, which they use in such manner that things don't get boring.

    And just when you think you got it - something new emerges.

    Was good until series 3

    This is a nice non violent series made for the teen market. Good story, although been done before with better special effects.

    Watched through two series then hit series 3 and was so disappointed, I only lasted 10 minutes into the first episode. Whole new bunch of characters that had no meaning, were unlikable and no substance.

    Series 4 needed with original cast to make this credible and worth watching.
