What's with all the blokes on it? Just bring on the boobs.
Maybe they should have called it "Abovebelly".

Apparently they need the guys on there to get the boobs out. It appears they are a bit shy unless there is a man around :lol::lol::lol:
A very titillating show that is really getting abreast of the subject.

Missed both S1 and S2 so ended up buying both. S1 was much better than S2.
Hanging out for S3 :banana:

Bloody good TV this show.
Totally agree...People used to go on about it but I never gave it a thought.
Until this series (which is a repeat of series 1 yes?)
Didn't watch the Mr Asia series.
The Morans (who have been in the news recently) are a bunch of fuckers, no wonder they were killed off sucessfully and without to much resistance. I think that Lewis (the ole' man) was killed in recent months??
Benji is a charater, saw a doco on him a couple of months ago, fuck what a killing machine!

No Lewis was killed in the series (sorry if thats a spoiler). His wife was recently found guilty of something, think it may have been plotting a murder or trying to cover one up. Yes it is a great show. Season 1 will never be matched, watched it 3 times :clap:, season 2 isn't too bad but not as dramatic and hard hitting as the first. Both great stories though. Season 3 is supposedly already booked, not sure when its coming out though.

I cant put it down either, the way Jason Moran was murdered was shocking but effective, they dont fuck around.

Season 1 was briliant!I was in Aussie when it was released on DVD,sold out on the day of it's release but was banned in the state of Victoria as the case was still before the courts.
Not sure if I'll buy season 2...judging by the comments on here it sounds inferior...but I could be swayed!

Series one was "Mr Asia". We are watching series 2.
A friend from Melbourne told me the series screening now in N.Z was actually series 1 in Oz. We got series 2 first, probably because of N.Z's ties to the Mr Asia story.

Incorrect. Season 1 is the melbourne gang story, something like 95-06. Season 2 is the Mr Asia story, late 70's to mid 80's. Season three is supposed to link the two, including (among other things) how the police force was cleaned up.
The only dramatic bit in season 2 was when that lawyer was thrown off the boat tied to the stove. Pretty horrible way to die, although that was fictionalised cause they don't know how he was knocked off.

Not quite, season 1 was aired early last year. Pretty much the same time as it was aired in auzzie. I don't think too many people watched it though (it was moved to quite late at night because of a lot of objections to the content!). But after the success of Mr Asia (most likely due to the obvious interests of NZ) they decided to replay season 1 again.

They should do a series on Qld coppers under Jo Bjelke Petersons rein.
They were corrupt motherfuckers.

Just to be more confusing, if you're watching Series 2 in Australia, their sub-title is "A tale of two cities" - "The Mr Asia Story" is only used here.

an aussie thats never watched it? even in victoria? I was living in aus when it came out, and them banning it in victoria was the best advertising! most watched tv show ever in aus I believe. bloody streets were empty when it was on tv. s1 was awsome but watched 1 episode of s2 and never watched another 1
Season three is supposed to link the two, including (among other things) how the police force was cleaned up.
disapointed. I heard s3 was going to be about the melbourne biker war
