Doctor Doctor–Season 1, Episode 9 (Say Sayonara)

I delivered my verdict on this episode on Twitter–brilliant and absolutely heart shattering. Ajax has exiled himself from his family after being told that Hugh is his father. I felt that the ramifications of this revelation weren’t explored fully, it almost felt brushed off and everyone moved on too quickly, with the biggest ramification being public humiliation. Considering the build

Doctor Doctor–Season 1, Episode 8 (The Truth Is Out There)

This episode was the one all the viewers had been waiting for–Ajax finally finds out that Hugh is his father. While the outcome of the truth coming out prior than planned was cliche and inevitable, I did love the build up as it was authentic. The whole family find out ultimately because of Hugh as he decides to tell his

Doctor Doctor–Season 1, Episode 7 (This Is Not A Love Song)

This episode to me felt like a filler. At the end of the previous episode, Hugh suggests to Aiofe that they become a couple, which plays out in this episode humorously and disastrously. The outcome was obvious and frankly, since there was a strong build up for them as love interests, I don’t understand why the inevitable had to be

Hyde & Seek–Episode 5

This episode was spectacular–mentally spectacular as opposed to physically spectacular. The episode mainly revolved around the bus hijacking. I wonder how people would have felt about the episode–the plot fits perfectly in the Hyde & Seek world, but it might have hit too close to home in the real word (i.e the Sydney Siege). Joel Jackson’s performance was brilliant, a far

Doctor Doctor–Season 1, Episode 6 (Golden Harvest)

This episode focused more on Hugh’s family–his actual family and his hospital family. With Hugh’s family it was obvious that the aftermath of Charlie’s ectopic pregnancy was going to be explored. Both Matt and Charlie are grieving in their own ways–avoiding each other–it’s a little cliche for them to avoid each other for their inevitable chat at the end of

The Wrong Girl–Season 1, Episode 4

This episode was absolutely spectacular. This episode again started in media res, I said it last week and I’ll say it again, this is really getting old, unless every chapter in the novel started this way, I don’t understand why it’s necessary. Lily is finally given the chance to run the show and from there the can of worms are

The Wrong Girl–Season 1, Episode 3

The opening of this episode was hilarious with Lily being forced to endure the excessively loud sex sounds apparently made by Simone and Jack, which she uniquely calls “sex terrorism”. However it was ruined for me when it was revealed that the writers were yet again using in media res. This is really getting old, to the point that I
