Land grabs threaten to destroy a declining dynasty
Chronology
When the massive Lawson cattle station lacks an heir, Australia’s rival factions see a chance to take control. The series was filmed across the Northern Territory and South Australia in locations so remote they are barely inhabited – let alone shown on screen.
enjoyed this series
Sites include the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Kakadu National Park – with special permission from the traditional owners – and Tipperary Station, a real working cattle station so big it has its own airport and school. Great actors.
Anna Torv is wonderful as a complex female antagonist
We loved Robert Taylor in Longmeier, he’s a great old crusty western guy. We loved her on Fringe but didn’t realize she was Australian because she dropped her accent.
Same for Michael Dorman, who was in For All Mankind
It’s amazing how UK and Australia/NZ actors can drop their accents and sound so American. It’s nice to have shows set in nature and not in specific cities and constant violence.
If you liked Yellowstone, #39;I’ll like this
I really hope there is a season 2.
