Members althea-davis Posted September 28, 2023 Members Share Posted September 28, 2023 The actors who play Nell and Hugo are fantastic. They really cast great little actors in the roles. I like the show. I see a lot of complaints on social media about the new chapter but for me, it's really starting to find its footing now. I am enjoying it. I just hope people really give it a chance so we can keep it on the air. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Skylover Posted September 28, 2023 Members Share Posted September 28, 2023 I'm loving the Rodwells, the Varga-Murphys and Nell and Hugo. It's great to see the show back with established families, they moved away from the big family dynamics in the last couple of years and it became fragmented, this is definitely Neighbours back at its best. I hope it lasts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Liberty City Posted September 28, 2023 Members Share Posted September 28, 2023 They definitely went back to the beginning concept, while continuing [some] of the work from the series' finale. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Skylover Posted September 29, 2023 Members Share Posted September 29, 2023 Cool, is anyone else watching from the States? Neighbours is placed 10 on Freevee's site for America. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chris B Posted September 29, 2023 Members Share Posted September 29, 2023 I'm watching in the states! I've only done week one so far but I was stunned at how much I enjoyed it. I watched maybe 100 classic episodes from various eras and I found the show to be very vanilla and difficult to get into. The reboot so far feels more modernized and soapy and instantly drew me in. Production values are fantastic as well! I LOVE that hotel set! The cast is also really nice. I'm glad they introduced a new family from the jump. I feel like they represent the new viewers and it's nice moving in with them, so to speak. My early favorites are Holly, Terese and Paul, but there is nobody that I dislike. The weak link is obviously Mischa Barton. I get why they cast an American, but she is just such a low energy performer. If anything, I feel like they should've cast a big US soap star. Mischa may get them a few headlines, but I highly doubt she's bringing any viewers in. A US soap star could inspire coverage in SOD and might convince fans to watch the show. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Skylover Posted September 29, 2023 Members Share Posted September 29, 2023 (edited) Glad to hear it! Who else is viewing from the US? Neighbours seems to be doing quite well in Africa.

Members DRW50 Posted September 29, 2023 Members Share Posted September 29, 2023 @Skylover I'm watching from the States as well. I'd heard a few people mention the TV ratings in Australia were very poor so hopefully some of the Amazon numbers balance that out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Skylover Posted September 29, 2023 Members Share Posted September 29, 2023 They are, but the show is airing at 4.30pm there, so it's not surprising. It seems most are watching on catch up, but I imagine it's mainly its success on Amazon that will be the main thing. The UK has been the reason the show has continued since at least around 1992. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Skylover Posted October 1, 2023 Members Share Posted October 1, 2023 (edited) I met Delta recently as I had a M&G ticket for her date in London, she sang the Neighbours theme there too. She's such a lovely woman, and has an incredible voice. I got some albums signed too.
