Might give this a go, had a quick look at the trailer. Vaughn always overlooked as a leading actor.

not sure if it's on netflix, but he was great in brawl in cell block 99.

Watched Calibre recently, tense and very well filmed and acted throughout.

Con Bordino wasn't a bada$$ rollerblader though

That's more like it. The Poulos family, Rivers, Abi Tuckers character (for some reason I always remembered the actress' name).

A quick look at IMDB and Drazic actually featured in more episodes than anyone else even though he only became a series regular in Season 6. Forgot there was such a high turnover of cast members.

Virgin river season 2 on Netflix now.

I remember watching the first series and while it was usual American show tropes they did manage to not lash them on like it was the gable end of a house which isn’t always how they do it. So because of that I might give the new season a look hoping they haven’t fallen into the old pitfalls.

Edit: I remember heartbreak high but I can’t say I watched it a lot. Pug wall and round the twist were good though.

Isn't it weird how Australian heavy Irish childhoods were for a while

Yeah we got a lot of American tv but when you actually list them out we did get a fair number of Australia kids shows. Although around the twist was a bit mad.

You should probably get some sort of ban for getting the theme song stuck in everyone's head again.

Is it being stuck in my head now punishment enough ?
