I've watched all the way to season eight. I can only think that the budget must be getting smaller and smaller - because the main characters keep disappearing off the show.
The special effects and details are excellent, and the acting has also been good.
And then I took a 20 minute break, and suddenly Drovers was being run into the ground by the hideous Grace.
The writers on this show must know how terribly irritating it is that every half wit drifter suddenly has part ownership in the "family farm".
The show is supposed to be about how one sister lost her dad, but dedicated her life to the land, and the other sister falls in love with the place. Together they give everything they have, to run this farm.
All of a sudden, some third party sister, just gives the farm away to the useless cousins.
You can tell how good the writing is, by how much they manage to upset the viewer.
No doubt this is the Australian style of television, make us hate every character with a passion, yet we can't stop watching!
