Freshwater Blue

This is one hell of a hot mess.

It's being billed as Australia's answer to the Hills, but last time I checked the Hills did not involve 12 bogans drinking Raspberry Cruisers and being fully 'hectic'.  Their word, not mine.   

Hey, don't get me wrong - I love a reality monstrosity and the Jersey Shore, RuPaul's Drag Race and the Kardashians are all series linked on my Foxtel IQ, so I'm not coming from a moral high ground. 

I sat through the first 2 episodes back to back with my hands over my face.  I kept waiting for Kath or Kim or even Con the Fruiterer to jump out of the bushes and give it up - surely it's a piss-take?

Let's hear from the Creator: "...it's real life decisions with alcohol and bikinis".   Poignant. 

I never thought of the Hills as intelligent, but next to this it looks like Lateline.
