Reviews

Robin Rowlands How very refreshing it is to have another Aussie series of such quality and pure entertainment value. What I love most about Aussie (and UK) productions is that the producers don't feel the need to patronise their viewers into a coma as American producers tend to do (excluding HBO). You can watch shows such as this at whatever level you want to and read whatever you choose to into them. The premise of a ghost/human relationship is obviously not new, but the the Spirited writers have put a take on it that makes the series unpredictable, engaging and altogether delightfully different. There's plenty of subtle humour with just enough pathos to counter-balance things. Great acting all round, as you'd expect from the sprinkling of well or better known names involved. Rodger Corser as the narcissistic Steve is brilliant. (What a prat!!) Karvan and King have an almost palpable chemistry and if they don't get together by the end of Series 2 I will be sorely disappointed! I could ramble on, but won't - just watch it!
riosd What a wonderful show "Spirited" is - in this day of TV that must teach you something, embarrass you or scare the heck out of you, it's a real pleasure to watch a show that doesn't expect anything from you but to just sit back and enjoy. From the start you get swept into the story of Suzie and Henry (and family and friends - a great cast all round) and the impossible nature of their relationship.The leads - Matt King (comedian actor/writer from the UK) and Claudia Karvan (Aussie actress that's been on our screens for over 20 years) are cast perfectly as Henry and Suzie with the chemistry to match.I've just finished watching the final episode in the 1st Season and without giving anything away, I think it does give some answers but raises many more questions. These questions (hopefully) will be answered in the next Season (which begins filming in Australia in January 2011) and I for one cannot wait! If you can get hold of this show than please do so - it's so different from anything out there at the moment and it's worth every minute!
bkdsl Having just seen the full season 1, I was pleasantly surprised by Spirited. What first grabbed my attention at the start was intrigue about Henry's story but what kept me hooked was the relationship between Henry and Suzie. Both parts are played by brilliant actors - Claudia Karvan always brings a realism to the characters she plays, and just something that makes you empathise with her. Henry seemed like such a caricature at the start but he quickly develops in to a really interesting character. The relationship that grows between them is something quite special and I really loved the scenes between the two of them. You can just see how the uptight and awkward Suzie relaxes around Henry and how her child-like, fun loving side emerges.The thing that I didn't like about this show were a couple of the supporting characters. The worst is Jonquil, I cringe every time she's on screen. I get that she's supposed to be irritating (her last name is 'Payne' afterall...) but there is no realism to her. Her character is just too farcical in a show that is otherwise quite realistic. Ex-hubby Steve walks a fine line between funny and a little over the top, but I think he manages to stay on the right side of that line most of the time. He is the likable tosser and is pretty good value for comic relief. I think we all know guys like him! Looking forward to Season 2!
jacqui_rose Although Spirited is relatively new, the episodes that I have watched i've really enjoyed. The characters and unique and quirky and the storyline keeps you wishing for the next episode already! I do wonder, however, whether this show has longevity. Simply due to the storyline it seems questionable whether the show will continue on for seasons. I'm hoping that there is a twist or something similar that enables the show to continue because I am personally really excited for this show and really proud that it is Australian. Matt King and Claudia Karvan have great chemistry and play their parts extremely well, so hopefully i'm proved wrong and Spirited has a long life because it's got some great potential. Good job!!!
