I have really wanted to like True Story but it has barely elicited a laugh . Very slight stories . Don’t know if problem is only one story per night or what but not working for me
Wanted finale, in particular last 15 mins – very underwhelming. Built up a lot of hype over 5.5 episodes and the ending was a big disappointment and let the whole series down. Wouldn’t watch S3 if it were to be renewed.
Yes, the Wanted finale was such a huge let-down after all the build up.
Really disappointing, leaving so many things unresolved and unexplained.
Was never that keen on the storyline anyway – found it all a bit implausible with quite a few many plot holes.
But still a shame as I quite enjoyed it up till then, especially the main characters and stunning NZ scenery.
Wonder if there will be a Season 3 to hopefully tie up many loose ends?
Seven would be disappointed with the finale rating for Wanted.
Wonder how it’s performing in consolidated.
Not really , similar to the whole series. Not sure why anyone extra would tune into a finale of a show they haven’t seen before??
HYBPA did 300K when it first launched. It’s amazing to see what happens when networks stand by a show.
Launched in summer under the radar. Working Dog wouldn’t even do interview, which was frustrating to TEN. But they knew what they were doing.
We saw what happened when TEN stood behind The Biggest Loser?
Win some, lose some.
