Offspring (Ten) General Discussion (Spoilers)

Offspring (Ten) General Discussion (Spoilers)


About the Show

Nina Proudman’s (Asher Keddie) career as an obstetrician is full of surprises; her ex-husband is an explosives expert who detonates to demonstrate his undying love for her; her family life is never short of emergencies; and Nina is the person everyone turns to for help in the midst of their crises.  Charting her way through the Proudman maelstrom, Nina is totally thrown off course when she meets dreamy new workmate Chris Havel.

Newly arrived in Melbourne, Chris Havel (Don Hany) is a paediatrician. From the moment he arrives in the neonatal ward, the spark between Chris and Nina ignites. He is everything she could ever want from a man. Chris is handsome and smart, gentle, calm and strong. The two of them seem made for each other. But Chris has a past that could destroy any hope for Nina.

Billie Proudman (Kat Stewart) is Nina’s unruly elder sister. An apprentice in their father’s real estate business, Billie is bold, brassy and incapable of lying. Once the wild child, Billie is now determined to put her wayward youth behind her and make something great of her life. If only she could convince her “on again, off again” boyfriend Mick (Eddie Perfect) to do the same.

Bright and vivacious, Cherie (Deborah Mailman) also has her feet on the ground. A nurse and friend of Nina, Cherie left the hospital to take up a position on the medical staff of a cruise ship. She returns to land- and to Nina’s world- on the verge of giving birth. Cherie’s life is about to become a whole lot more than she expected.

Following the Proudman family’s adventures searching for love, fulfillment and balance in the chaos of modern life, Offspring is about the life forces that drive us all: love, sex, babies, food and music. This life affirming series provides food for the soul as it examines the curses and the blessings that come with intricate family connections.

Stylistically fresh and visually exciting, Offspring mixes conventional narrative drama with flashbacks, graphic animation and fantasy sequences, showcasing the vibrant world of Fitzroy, Melbourne, where Nina and the extended Proudman family go about their unpredictable daily lives.

This is a show with a difference but i thought when Cherie was giving birth and Nina realised who is the father of her baby was amusing but her ex is a psycho

TOP

Episode 1

I'm not sure what Nina was trying to accomplish with that stupid police trap for he husband but her sister came good when her husband trapped her in the lift. Nina has some amusing thoughts and dreams

TOP

Episode 2

Nina's insecurities was amusing when asked to go nude in the birthing suite and I'm not surprised that Billie needed a shower after that cleaning job but what she wrote for Geraldine's online dating page was nice

TOP

Episode 3

The naming Ceremony for Ray caused some problems for Nina and her sister but Nina was still devastated and tried her best to avoid Chris and Zara.

TOP

Episode 4

Billie and Nina's text messages was funny, Darcy finding himself on a very "stiff" date was sad but she did look like she died happy and Billie's plan to make Mick jealous backfired when his old flame turned up. Nina's day dreams are are often the best part

TOP

Episode 5

About time that Nina and Chris had their first kiss but arranging their first date was funny especially with her sister interrupting

TOP

Episode 6

Another good episode, Nina comparing condoms to toothpaste was different but can she get a break from all her drama to have a proper date with Chris and then to make thing worse a surprise from Chris' past

TOP

Episode 7

Nina getting flustered when her phone ring was amusing but i did feel sorry for the patient being examined, it did look like Jimmy was a lab rat for all the drug trials and what a colossal mistake Nina has made

TOP

Episode 8

I cant believe that Nina blurted out the truth about sleeping with Mick to Chris and Jimmy and Mick pretending to be gay was funny but now Chris's wife has turned up after so long what will Nina do next

TOP

Episode 9

Another funny episode with Nina still in shock after Alice's unexpected arrival and Billie changing the babies nappy was hilarious, their mother sleeping positions and herbal teas she gave her kids was crazy

There is no way they did that on the first take but it would of been more funny if one of the crew added the odder

Nina trying to hide in the car while Billie was in the shop was funny and Jimmy getting more than he bargained for as a human test subject was interesting especially when he started to have heart palpitations afterwards, Nina 3 minute dash to the car park was funny it's just a shame his wife rang her

Nina's reaction to Billie on the phone and then Mick's phone ringing was funny but  Nina blurting it out  to Alice after she run over her foot she had to tell Nina

TOP

The first release of the double final is a disaster with 18 seconds difference in video and audio at about 16 min but as i read in another forum with VLC you can advance the audio 18 seconds to watch the rest of the episode

TOP

Episode 12

Billie telling Nina that her fantasy sucks was funny but Jimmy letting slip to their mother about what happened set Billie of smashing the kitchen and poor Mick being shown what he will miss with the owls

TOP

Episode 13

10 out of 10 for Mick's persistence in trying to win Billie back and Nina running of for six month while Alice is trying to set up home with her husband should be interesting. I would say Nina has balls for staying while Mick sang his song but the results was nice and Jimmy honoring Nina was funny

Did you use VLC to get over the audio problem or did you find another way
