We were looking forward to seeing this series based on the high ratings. The acting was poor - a Brit and an Australian actor trying to put on a PA accent was not authentic, and other actors just dragged out their slow dialog for no apparent reason. Three episodes would have been plenty. A lot of irrelevant sub-plots, such as the lesbian affair, and the old lady who died in a car crash, The only worthwhile story line was when Mare got some psychological help. Cinematography was poor, and music not inspiring. Spoiler alert: why would an ex-cop hide a gun and ammo, unlocked, in a yard shed? Watch a British or foreign show instead.
