Hyde & Seek

What is this, two GOOD and strong new Aussie shows on at once? WHAT! Plus the Code wrapping this week on ABC? After Channel Nine greenlit Doctor Doctor for a second series I was a little uneasy going into their next venture Hyde & Seek, however it was brilliant.

More edgy and fast paced than The Wrong Girl but again with a strong cast and current issues explored. Looks it's no Foxtel original nor HBO/Showtime drama but it is outstanding in the current climate of Aussie drama.

Matt Noble continues his run of good roles after the swim coach in ABC's brilliant mini series Barracuda and Tai Hara, HUBBA HUBBA! And then there Love Child favourite Rhonda from Bali, less Ketut.

Channel Nine has a fairly weak drama schedule at present with the very ordinary House Husbands, shocking Doctor Doctor, Love Child which needs to be cancelled after the rushed and very average third season. And that said most of the Love Child cast have moved on anyways, including Rhonda in this show, Marais in The Wrong Girl and the hot LaPaglia hosting over on Ten.

The House of Bond is set to land in 2017 and they seriously need a replacement for Love Child in their schedule however with House Husbands banished from the screens in 2016 this might be the replacement.

So back to Hyde & Seek, part terrorism drama/thriller, part cop show, this has hit written all over it. Well done Nine for going with this project as you really don't have a great record of late (if ever).
