You're a Bunch of Factors

Alright, lets talk about underbelly here (Brett, you better go wait outside).

What did everyone think of the premiere? I had high expectations (if you didn't already know) and for the most part, they were fulfilled. I really liked Les Hill's character (Jason Moran), thought he did a great job. Better than Vince Colosimo, (Alphonse Gangitano) at any rate. It was disappointing to see Alphonse die though, the conflict between him and, well, everyone, was good to watch. Guess it was always gonna end like that, though.

Gotta go with Carl Williams for my favourite character though. He's played so well (the actor's name escapes me...), I can't wait to see what his character turns into. I get the feeling he'll take them all down.

I like how the war is shown from every angle possible - cops/gangsters/family - I suspect the media will be bought into it as the series progresses.

On a side note, my god how many famous Aussie actors did you spot? Its not so much a story on the Melbourne gangland murders than it is "Spot the Aussie actor and tell us what show they used to be in."

Overall, I was very pleased. Looking forward to next week's ep.

8/10

anyone know where i can get the episodes online? or will there be a re-run sometime next week?

had a uni exam this morning so had to study last night

If you want to download them, I doubt it. Unlike American TV shows, underbelly will be shown here first, seeing as its an Aussie program. But, you never know, these are strange times we live in.

If you want to watch them online, check the websites for Ch 9 and underbelly - they might have something up. For a 2 hour episode though, I doubt it.

Very likely. Check the TV guide on Sunday - my bet is on Tuesday, probably during the afternoon.

I think thiers an encore screening 10;30 on sunday night

Awesome... definately going to watch the rest.

better than what i thought it was going to be, i

Well, I had the last two eps of Dexter before they aired in the US ... nothing's impossible

I have access to all episodes, straight from the cutting room in Melbourne, I would have to pay for this privilage so let me know if you want copies...

EDIT: By Des, Can't promote torrent sites. People will find it if they want to.

i watched it last night, it was a really good show. i can see why they banned it in vic though, you can just tell what is going to be coming up. i give it 8/10, looking forward to watching it this week
