Maria Trim OK i know i am an old lady and am forced to watch these things with granddaughter. I watched Mako first and we both enjoyed it i quite liked it did a review. Then we decided to watch H20 just add water. I found it quite tedious and lacked any substance, i mean they transform into mermaids and must avoid the moon, but every time it comes up they always allow someone to open their door so the moon light comes in, and one will be affected and off they go in a trance...yawn. Then the not getting wet or turn into a fish, yes always they get wet and one turns into a fish. I mean Cleo gets a job with dolphins really. Then they freeze someone in the cafes freezer i mean she was solid, and stuck in there all night, and they defrost her with their special powers and she wakes up as though nothing happened, REALLY....i just sighed and thought how stupid is this. Then boo hiss we have way too many nasty females, Kim Cleos sister who is a brat all through the series, Sophie Wills sister horrible person really, then Charlotte who turns into a nasty horrible mermaid and does really bad things to the girls, but all is forgiven yawn. Even Sophie who causes the island magic pool to collapse seems to be forgiven yawn again. So many silly things, I mean i know its for young people it had its moments but it was just well the same thing over and over again. The best person was Lewis who left, I couldn't get on with Rikki and Emma left and we had Bella who was yes a mermaid but from Ireland. All the things that happened and no one even made a comment or wondered why. How can you keep that kind of thing a secret, i mean water is everywhere in our lives. Oh and what a hoot tentacles really they looked like snakes or eels to me. Oh and no way would a comet be allowed to get so close it would breach our atmosphere. Far fetched or what lol. Oh and really snorkelling under the sea give me a break how bad is that. No i preferred Mako it had more substance and story line. I can see the charm of it for young people but even my grand daughter found it hard work.

Jesse Bond In an effort to steal 'Charmed's thunder, Australia went ahead and created something rather diabolically stupid, that it seems almost pointless and a waste of time. H2O Just add water is a television series about three teenage friends who become mermaids, and gradually avoid danger at every turn. Although the three friends must also avoid the greatest danger of all: Themselves. Risking exposure is not a priority that sadly seems very high for them, amongst trying to control their powers. Their powers include the different stages of the H2O cycle, like steam, Ice, and liquidized water. The threats also come from below; other mermaids who want to steal their powers, and their boyfriends... From boat chases to drama both on land and off, H2O just add water promises adventure and spectacle at every turn! Unfortunately the promise of Mermaids, dazzling special effects, and action, seems to be the only thing on their minds. The script is a childish, contemptible, and the most obtuse, brainless script to have ever been said aloud in quite some time. The dullness of the script is not the only thing that's senselessly nonsensical, but the story-line of each episode is incredibly numb as well as it's cheesy. The dense dialog is so imprudent that the actors performing the inane screen-play look just as stupid. The acting is quite possible the most ludicrous thing about the television series. Here, our protagonists are on the verge of adulthood. Yet, everything that they do – and say – is beyond asinine. We have tweens acting like kids, teens acting like tweens and adults acting like teens. The irrationality of both the script and three girls acting like typical American aussy-speaking teenage girls, along with all of the male figures – all of them – acting like tools and nerds, is utterly absurd and pitiful. Phoebe Tonkin (Cleo) is probably the poorest actress of the three girls, Cleo, Rikki and Emma. Whilst looking like she's just popped out of a 90's Wes Craven movie, with foul haircuts and the most plain outfits a star could wear, her acting is the most conventional and boring on the show. She's a cynically stupid, easily predictable character who just shut her damned mouth up. Cariba (Rikki) Is perhaps the least appalling actress here, keeping her character a serious and fit one, despite the inferior script. But like everybody else on this show, she does have her stupid moments – yeah, not stupid in the show. Emma (Claire Holt) is just as bad. So, good then. But eager to squeeze his way next to Phoebe as the worst actor on the show (Phoebe later redeemed herself in 'Tomorrow: When the War began) is probably Angus McLaren. He's just annoying, with his incensing presence proving worthless. But that doesn't stop him; Stupid haircuts (they get around, don't they?) feeble acting, floppy dialog, all make him just as weedy as the rest of the cast. An irritating factor is, he seems far too pre-occupied with thinking that he's all sophisticated because he plays a young scientist with the sea-maids, that he doesn't seem to focus on the real issue at hand; the vulnerability of the three mermaids that are apparently his best friends. The exposure of the mermaidians is evidently not a priority; so why even bother with the show? Burgess Abernethy is another male actor throwing away his career. At first he's an untrustworthy 'friend', who as nearly a grown man, is obsessed with mermaids. Again, another pessimistic and juvenile addition. He then proves himself worthy of friendship, and then they all go out for an under-water orgy. This is probably all you need to know. A weakening factor is, he's still a baddie. Oh no! Now there are bad actors, badly acting, as people acting… Bad! Villains and threats are a common factor for our mermaids. Although the villains are nowhere near as menacing as they should be. We might as well kick the show whilst it's down. The theme song 'No Ordinary Girl' written by Shelley Rosenberg is as fatuous as the song, 'I'm a Barbie Girl'. Nail gargling, soul-crushing, head-aching, H2O Just Add Water is promptly the worst television show that has played on afternoon television since 'Power Rangers: Samurai'. Beyond poor.

maria_darakchieva The Best Show Ever H2o Just Add water is the best Australian TV Show I've ever seen.The acting,the plot,the place and storyline are incredible.The Girls have some amazing magic powers,which an ordinary Girl can only dream of.To me,Emma has the most amazing power and I think that she shouldn't be replaced by Indiana Evans.That would be very sad to all Emma real fans.And the girls have got a lots of enemies:Charlotte,the evil mermaid,Zane,the rich boy,Denman,the marine biologist and Miriam,the stacked up rich girl,which they can fight with their powers.I think that H2o Just Add Water is the best show I've seen and it is suitable to children to all ages.Also,my opinion is that there should be more shows like that,that do not involve sex,nudity,stupid scenes,violence and etc.I just can't wait for season 3!The only bad thing about the upcoming season is the fact that Emma won't be there and she'll be replaced by the stupid Bella.Also,That show has some outstanding music.I love all Kate Alexa's No Ordinary Girl,which is played at the beginning of the episodes and Feel it Too,which is played at the episode when Kim and Eliott go on a date,it's good music.

yellowbaby200164 I have no idea what the chick from the USA was on about just because it's not American humour dosen't mean its not a great show, newsflash the rest of the world dosen't have to like everything you like.The show has a fan base with yes unbelievable story lines and love interests, Love how all the girls are settling into their characters and each seem to be finding their own ways.If you like the movie aquamarine and like shows that don't take themselves too serious than this show is for you. Look out for Indianna Evans from Home and Away when she joins the cast for season 3.My advice watch a few eps and if you don't like it don't like it don't watch anymore.
