Seven Types of Ambiguity

Really impressed by this series and would definitely see it again. Fascinating storyline, wonderful cast and keeps you guessing all the way through.

It reminded me of that other great Australian series The Slap, in which the pivotal event is examined from different characters viewpoints.

I would highly recommend this.

Binged this in a day, Very compelling and interesting to watch, reminded me of the Slap, a few of the same actors were in both, told from each main character's point of view in each episode in the same way The Slap did. I just wish the ending wasn't left so open and vague but all in I'm glad I watched it. I think the Australian TV shows like this are excellent and get to the nitty gritty of normal day to day life for most people just trying to get by.

I wanted to like this, I really did.

Aussie suburban and city dramas really lack something and I was hoping this would be better.

It started off ok, although it was only seeing the second episode featuring Hugo Weaving that it was clear how poor Alex Dimitriades had been in the first episode. The epitome of the wooden actor. He couldn't get a gig in Thunderbirds.

So, each episode featured a different character. From the title you would have thought seven, but no, it was six.

The "drama" got worse until the final one which would have embarrassed the Neighbours production team.

As for the plot, it was all a waste of time and not a good advertisement for Aussie justice when at least three serious felonies had been committed and nobody is brought to task.

... Leeanne Walsman's a very good actor, as-and her recent excellent series 'Human Error' attests once again... here, she's not so much a part of each Seven Types of Ambiguity episode, yet when she does appear she makes the most of it, especially that final segment

... Xavier Samuel is actually only several years younger than Walsman, yet he appears onscreen to look much younger than her... and seeing that these two characters in this story are to have been 'lovers' in school, the 'look' of the two of them, and story-timelines of their ages just doesn't work-calculate... maybe as a younger lover of hers, fine... but together in college for several years, just isn't making sense, and it's distracting... in 2017, Walsman's a woman in her late thirties, Samuel his mid-thirties... with a script having them knowing one another for ten years

... all other actors work well in their respective roles... yet with Simon such an important character to the story, it's really difficult disregarding... added to a storyline having long stretches dragging out, and it makes at times for difficult viewing... it's a worthwhile production, yet flawed more than it should have been... Walsman and Samuel did great work.. most all others as well too... another good ABC drama.

It starts well as if there will be a tight thriller or intelligent story. That's episode one. It then devolves in to melodrama and implausibly interconnected story lines from a cheap paperback.

The acting is of a moderate level. Hugo is used as a hook and largely wasted.

At the end the story seems to go nowhere and leaves you wondering why you bothered.
