'Australia's best new drama'

I saw this line on the ninemsn site and had to laugh. If this is all Australia has to offer then our television industry truly is circling the drain.

This show is trash. Watched 15 minutes of it last night. As usual with Australian shows it is written so that every possible convenient plot development that could happen does, even when it doesn't make sense. Why doesn't the Australian film and television industry just admit they suck balls and leave it to the Americans.

There are loads of good Australian shows, but this is definitely not one of them.

Here's a petition to keep it off TV - http://www.gopetition.com/petitions/don-t-save-tricky-business.html

I've given it a go and watched it since day one but now it's vanished?? Ot was advertised for Tue 8 pm in the paper but Spider Man was on instead! I saw an advert for 10 pm Wed night but the digital channel info says it's not on. Doesn't look good. Another one bites the dust!

Channel Nine are a joke! Now there's no reason whatsoever to watch it.

I think the horrible writing is setting it back more than whether or not it follows Masterchef or some other reality show turdburger.

Axe this show and give these actors decent roles before their career is irrevocably ruined.

And in UR opinion how does Tricky Business stand up against other TV shows? What would you compare it to in terms of quality?

Dude, you already did that 'oh you must watch BLB and The Shire' retort in the other thread and it fell like a lead balloon there as well.

Listen: BLB, The Shire and Tricky Business are all terrible shows. But TB is a special kind of terrible because unlike the former two it actually had the benefit of having script writers and yet it still failed to captivate an audience.

Milf? Is this 1998?
