... at least as I remember it. I too was eleven years old in 1974, and although I lived in a Rugby League state and played soccer, this was my favorite TV show. "Boy from the bush makes the big time". And yes my opinion may be severely distorted by nostalgia, but there's got to be a reason I still google for the show every few years hoping to show my American born son a bit of Australiana. Minus 2 stars because the acting wasn't stellar even for the time. I mean.. if an eleven year old can spot the flaws it can't be great. And the plot may have been a bit thin. But all in all it's an Aussie Classic and I still hope to stumble across it someday.
