Great show - Strong Women Role Models - music gets tiring

Binge watched this series on Amazon. First - love that this show revolves around the premise of strong women taking care of a farm and not needing men to assist. It's great to see this.

The first three seasons hook you in. Always dramatic - but things usually resolve by the end. However, once you hit the end of the 3rd season, things start to get pretty predictable and you see the formula. They drag out and torture you with will they or won't they get together. And then once couples get together - disaster strikes. Once you get together and find happiness, someone is going to die. It is almost comical towards the end of the series. The beginning of this series is so very different than the end.

But I did enjoy it. The other part that is absolutely torture is the music. All songs are written by the same artist - she appears in one of the episodes as a cameo - you can recognize her voice immediately. But the songs come across as so cheesy. Couldn't wait to fast forward the credits so as not to hear the songs.

It is worth the 45 minutes to see strong ladies make it through the outback. It is interesting to see them handle the strenuous jobs and they never ask for a mans strength.
