Land grabs threatened to destroy the fading dynasty
Chronology
When Lawson’s vast cattle farm is left without an heir, rival factions in Australia see an opportunity to seize control. The series was filmed in the Northern Territory and South Australia in places so remote they are barely inhabited, let alone shown on screen.
We thoroughly enjoyed this series
Locations include the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Kakadu National Park (with special permission from the traditional owners) and Tipperary Station, a real-life working cattle farm that is so large it has its own airfield and school. Great actors.
Anna Torv is wonderful as a complex female adversary
We loved Robert Taylor in Longmeier, he makes a great role as a grumpy old man in a western style. We loved her in Fringe but didn’t realize she was Australian because she lost her accent.
Same for Michael Dorman who was in For All Mankind
It’s pretty amazing how UK and Australian/New Zealand actors can drop their accents and sound so American. It’s nice to have shows set in nature, rather than concrete cities and constant violence.
I really hope there’s a season 2
If you liked Yellowstone, you’ll like this.
