project90 Posted January 27, 2018 Report Share Posted January 27, 2018 Since I started watching we have had Who killed Charlotte Kyle going to jail Billie's rape The Morgan witness protection John being in jail Brodie being on drugs Robbo showing up I'm sure the crime link goes back further but, yeah, I think it's what I'm not liking about the show. As a new viewer again I don't think there would be much time in between the crimes I listed. Not saying I would never want to see crime storylines again just have a break from it.

No because I like it. H&A knows how to write storylines in a way that makes it watchable unlike other soaps which went way over the top in 2006 and the shows never recovered from it.

Luke39 Posted January 28, 2018 Report Share Posted January 28, 2018 Crime is a part of coastal town life. But i feel the overload of the crime elements in the show is becoming a tad unrealistic. I Think more Family Life presented in Family Drama. Well be a welcome return in 2018. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christine king Posted January 28, 2018 Report Share Posted January 28, 2018 Yes we need a break from crime. They used to do the balance right but those days are long behind us now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ratio of the population of Summer Bay to the amount of crime must be off the chart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerard Posted January 28, 2018 Report Share Posted January 28, 2018 The cime stories can be dramatic and exciting to watch, but they need to balance it out with "normal" storylines too. That way the drama is more effective when it comes. Constant crime every day would get a bit boring and tiresome, not to mention unrealistic. I think at the moment it is just about balanced OK, in that there is something for the fans of crime and something for those of us who prefer the more traditional family storylines. But it is a very fine balance, and is probably not really keeping any fans completely happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j.laur5 Posted January 28, 2018 Report Share Posted January 28, 2018 Problem is fans are never going be 100% happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainHulk Posted January 28, 2018 Report Share Posted January 28, 2018 I have to agree. It does get tiresome seeing the hospital and the cop shop all the time. And the same characters winding up there. I'm not saying eradicate crime, just take it down a notch. When something Big eventually DOES happen it becomes harder to care.

c120701 Posted January 28, 2018 Report Share Posted January 28, 2018 I think Home and Away refers to being out of or in prison now. It would help if the same characters weren’t involved in the crime stories all of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
