It Spans Generations

Hanna Barbera distributed this in the US. So, when I was a kid, I'd be blithely watching "Huckleberry Hound" or "Yogi Bear" — and then, suddenly, it'd be RETURN TO EDEN time. And I'd get thrust into a lusty Australian world of high fashion, plastic surgery, adultery, murder, beer drinking, and crocodile attacks. Not to mention James Reyne's greasy shirtless portrayal of a man fond of going down on his alcoholic married girlfriend.

I absolutely love this miniseries, and I'm watching it right now on YouTube (what, like, 36 years later?). Things I didn't notice as a kid:

Wait, she makes $3K off those opals and somehow manages to pay to extensive, in-house plastic surgery? Even IF some of it were funded by Medicare, Stephanie is awfully vague about who she is, and where she comes from. I'm 38 years old now — if I quit smoking, do some stretch exercises, and get a Pat Benetar haircut, can I be a supermodel too?

Jilly seemed like a crazy drunk to me as a kid, but now that I'm a tad bit older, I see myself in her ... about three times a week?

Where the hell did Stephanie get that pre-Tara wig she sports toward the end? Did the aborigines supply her with that?
