Rank Seasons
Hi there, as an avid McLeod's fan, I often look for new topics from the message boards and have noticed that no one has done a ranking of the seasons. So here are my thoughts on the seasons going from best to worst:
1. Season 3:This is clearly everyone's favourite as it includes the departure of two beloved characters and the arrival of a fan-favourite as well as some well deserved romance between Claire and Alex, Bridie Carter gives an amazing performance as Tess in this season. 10/10
2. Season 6: My personal favourite as it is one of the most dramatic seasons of the show as it includes the departure of Tess alongside one of the most thrilling mysteries of any season. 10/10
3. Season 1: I bought for a very cheap price and ended up marathoning the entire season within a week as I was enthralled by the chemistry of the actors as they seemed to be really enjoying being a part of the show. The soundtrack is breath-taking here. 10/10
4. Season 5: A little slow at the beginning but picks up about 5 episodes in as the plot becomes more dramatized, the character of Sandra Kinsella gets developed more as we discover more about her character's history. 9/10
5. Season 2: After the excitement of season 1 I was a little disappointed in how this season would end up but after Becky comes to a realisation about Claire's boyfriend and someone leaves, the drama instantly picks up and becomes addicting once again. 9/10
6. Season 7: A lot of fans disapprove of the supernatural theme of this season what with the character of Moira being credited as main cast and the character of Jodi coming to terms with the history of the farm. This is a sad season as a beloved character departs and is introduced with a host of new characters whom we don't get to care for the way we do with the original cast. 9/10
7. Season 4: I put this season down here because I feel as if the writers placed to many unnecessary recurring characters as love interests e.g. Kane because his storyline with Stevie is boring. However there is a silver lining as the character of Kate Manfredi is introduced and fills the void after the departure of a beloved character. 8/10
8. Season 8: the majority of fans would agree that this is the worst season because there is no one left from the original cast apart from a few guest spots. there is a lot of sadness in this season as two characters bid their spouses goodbye. Grab the tissues for episode 4 as a fan-favourite departs in the most poignant, touching way that a main character can. 8/10
As a whole, McLeod's Daughters is a wonderful show filled with intriguing characters and I am wondering how my fellow McLeod's fans would rank the seasons. Please reply as I am eager to get other opinions. :)
