i saw it last saturday nite! hmm, i actually thought that was the best show out of H & A and Neighbours, but you would think if they axed that show, they would put something different on instead, not the same old rubbish!

If only they'd put that much effort into getting viewers for Last Man Standing - that was actually...well...the only decent show channel 7 has had for a long time.

Good stories, quality writing, natural acting, funny - and most of all something people, in particular blokes, could relate to - I don't think many people can relate to the forced melodrama and hyper-reality of headland/home & away/neighbours.

Maybe they are just going to finish the series. They won't be making any more episodes after.

Totally agree!
