Perils of Pauline & Paulette
This is good stuff for dialog writing, acting, location work (Bangkok! New Zealand!). and two strong, appealing female leads whose growing friendship is a pleasure to see. That said, though, there are a couple of plot devices that I started to get tired of. One is the hairsbreadth escape: one of the leads is cornered, in an impossible situation, with a bad guy's gun pointed directly at her head, and poof! something intervenes just when all looks hopeless. This happens too many times to be believed; I'm willing to suspend disbelief but not hang it from the rafters. The second is the partners-almost-split-up scene: "That's it, you need to go on without me," yet every single time, they stick together. And finally, I think the writers went to the MacGuffin shelf too often: the pair are searching for a pile of cash, no, a stash of drugs, no, the car containing both, no, a safe deposit box key... I can see why something like this would have seemed like a handy way to keep the story line going, but it started to get tiresome for me.
Thelma and Louise meets The Fugutive
Superbly acted and written. Not your average cop drama. the plot changes every time you get up for a pint. Not a problem for the cast, which turns on a dime. Keeps the audience guessing, and engaged. Perfect for binge watching. Hard to put down. The only problem for American ears is that sometimes the Australian accents are hard to pick out from the background sound. Otherwise, a 10 out of 10.
Love This Show
The two leads are just excellent, the way their friendship develops is beautiful. It bowls along at a terrific pace and amuses and delights all the way through. The supporting cast are very good and it's just really, really enjoyable, watch it, you won't regret it.
Love it
I am loving Wanted.
Rebecca Gibney, what a brilliant actress. Very natural and believable. She just gets better and better. I am enjoying her Character Lola. So different from anything Rebecca has done in the past.
Great Aussie scenery. Great Aussie Talent. Geraldine Hakewill is also very good in her role along with Stephen Peacocke. I am enjoying every minute of these talented actors.
The Aussie locations are great. I keep looking and wondering if I have been there before. Especially around tropical Queensland.
Love it.

Great caper, comedic, thrilling engaging, if a little too contrived.
A hugely enjoyable twist on a tried and tested old storyline of hapless innocents wandering into a heist plot with gangsters and bent cops. Better than expected. Yes the plot is daft and much of the on goings incredulous but the two lead actresses are good enough chemistry and subtle comedy with a warm relationship & some painful life truths to carry this through. Its an Australian "Thelma and Louise" meets "Home & Away" meets "it's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World" The only complaint is some of the support acting is atypical B rate Australian soap, in fact almost all the support are dreadfully inept actors & that somewhat lets down the hard effort of the two leads & the writers
Predictable but great fun. Just when you think its over, they're off again.
