...Long as a snake's liver and all about this priest (Richard Chamberlain) and a girl named Meggie (Rachel Ward) on a station (or ranch, as they call it here) who get a big thing for one another and keep simmering away for about 35 years, slinging the stuff about guns, and guilt but rarely getting to the Main Event. No wonder all the mums liked it. Anyway, one of the networks here, ABC, made a saga about it, the word for anything ten hours long and slow as a stunned mullet. They say (well, they hope) the Yanks...
...dancing, especially breaking, is an essentially male competition, but even in fashion the boys dominate. Gentlemen's Quarterly is treach.

"Guys are out there flashing their stuff, and the girls are usually wearing a watered-down version of what the guys have on. The girls don't want to look all that nasty."

...choreography is hot, dazzling stuff. Arthur Williams III and Pay Lynn Boyce, who also choreographed the show, are an unbeatable dance team, leading the rest of the cast through some lightening fast gymnastics, and charming the audience as decadent playboy bunny types in "Tortoise and Hare." Boyce has crafted some impressive dance routines, which make the most of the plodding to lackluster music. The score, written by Koury with the help of Steve Olenick and Michael Cowan, needs to be tightened and spiced up. It lacks imagination...
