The Survivors - Netflix Series


The Survivors | Official Trailer | Netflix
Netflix

Murder mystery set in the fictional town of Evelyn Bay, Tasmania. Very stupid show, could have been written by Harlan Coben. It could be realistic, I mean the world is full of stupid people, doing stupid, emotional driven stuff, so yeah, realistic, and fine if you want to get drug through all that. I was ready to bail, but the boss enjoys this kind of stuff, and what am I gonna do? Go play solitaire? I do enough of that already. So we got through it, well she sailed through, I slogged. There was one funny bit somewhere in the middle where we have a memorial rugby match and a couple of people in the audience got into recriminations over 15 year old events. The commotion spreads and pretty soon we've got everyone involved.

There are some great shots of the spectacular coastal rock formations near Eagle Neck, which is just across the bay from Hobart. 

Hobart, Tasmania

Looking at a map of Hobart, the coastline is extremely twisted, much like Norway's, and very much unlike our nice straight coast here in Oregon.

Greater Hobart

The location might be the most interesting part of the show. None of the characters in the first episode stood out as anything more than annoying, well, except maybe for Bronte, the investigating journalist, on account of she turned up dead.
