1. what a godawful theme tune!!!!! i need to mute as soon as the theme tune comes on. *beep* awful and annoying and terrible.

2. what kinda clothes is nina wearing at work?!?! she's a friggin' doctor!!! how can she wear sloppy tank tops with bra straps visible and come on that's a great outfit when you are out and about but not when you are at work for pete's sake!!!!

3. why isn't a single member of proudman family totally 100% likeable?!?! they all have their very annoying characteristics, and habits, and styles, and attributes. if i had to put them in order of likability, it would have to be..... darcy, geraldine, billie, jimmy, nina. really. they are all a bit annoying, in their own special ways.

yet i still find myself watching this show!!! that is totes weird. maybe it's because there is no more love my way, no more mcleod's daughters, nomoremanyotheraussieshows...... so i will have to make do with this......

oh and 4. so many good looking doctors in a hospital!??! really?!?!

Appreciate your comments..Here is a response....

1. Theme tune didn't bother me so much at first. But I always mute it now!! I have discovered that now that I have Netflix and can binge watch, I usually get irritated with the theme songs eventually. The only theme song I always liked was a series called "Heartland"...Beautiful show!

2. I thought that at first, but then I started to appreciate the casual dress as more real and personal. I wonder if Australia's hospitals are more casual in dress. Although the tank tops and bras are a little too casual, probably, and may be just for the show. Actually I love Nina AND Billie's style of clothing which is of course very different. It also makes the show more interesting to see all of Nina's colorful flouncy skirts, scarfs and boots, etc,...interesting

3. Is there any real person who is %100 likable (would that be to everyone? which would really be unlikely) Are you %100 likable? (not intended to be rude, just making a point) It is our quirks that are sometimes the most interesting and endearing as you come to appreciate the person. As long as people aren't mean...

4. What's wrong with good looking doctors? It's a TV show and it's supposed to be entertaining! I personally love to look at good looking men especially! Matthew Le Nevez who plays Patrick is amazingly handsome!! All of the doctors in the show aren't great looking. Although all of Nina's love interests are hunks...and that's fine by me! I think that there is a fine balance in the show, personally.

I really enjoy shows from Australia as well! "The Code" is really good. I have seen "mcleod's daughters" and I will look up "Love My Way". Heartland (mentioned on #1) a great show is from Canada.
