User Reviews

Excellent comedy drama with quirky plot and cool music

How to describe Love is a Four Letter Word? A 26 episode drama containing elements of comedy and biting social commentary, a dead sister coming back to give advice to her sibling, cameo performances by leading contemporary Australian bands, clever use of hand held consumer video, tight editing and excellent scripts, outstanding performances and very good casting. This is how TV should be made in the 21st century; this show will appeal to all 20 and 30 something viewers, and it leaves the current rash of 'reality' programs for dead. Another example of excellent program production from the Australian Broadcasting Corporation.

Highly recommended.
