East West 101 season 1

DVD Wholesale Quick Overview:

I’ve seen some cop shows, from at least a dozen countries I’m almost embarrassed to say, but none better than ‘East West 101’. It’s simply awesome the journey we take through just six episodes. The characters are so well drawn, by writers directors and actors, that it could easily be extended in various directions. But it doesn’t need to be. At just six episodes it’s a gem of rare distinction. Exciting, beautiful, moving, satisfying. I’m in awe. And beautiful Sydney, a city I know well, is up there on the screen, heart and soul. May that same spirit heal the world.

I’d prefer not to single out contributors to a superb collaborative effort. Just congratulations Team!

An excellent 6-part, Aussie police drama from 2009; the Muslim / Polynesian / white Aussie interactions add an interesting and relevant twist. Don Hany (Serangoon Road, Underbelly) is a great actor. I sometimes had to ‘rewind’ parts because of the accents and lack of subtitles; and, having to play each episode separately (no ‘play all’ option) was irritating but the series was worth the extra efforts. Series 2 and 3 are also excellent.

I loved this entire series! I loved that a muslim actor was playing a good muslim cop. It also has a bromance storyline with his partner who was of a native nationality. Don Hany’s real life father payed his character’s father. The only negative is that sometimes their Australian accent is barely understood.
