Dangerous

Dangerous

A new Australian drama airing here on Austar only, not free too air TV apparently too gritty and dangerous to be shown on free-to-air television

Dangerous

View Series trailer here <--- Watch this

First ten minutes of part one of the series on a You Tube video same user has the rest of part one in another four 10 minute videos

Warning - contains strong language
Update: Unfortunately ALL of that users videos have been removed and they where the only person who had Dangerous videos the series trailer link still works though


Produced by Southern Star (Flying Doctors, McLeod’s Daughters and Blue Heelers)

And starring Khan Chittenden (Blue Water High) and Brooke Satchwell (Neighbours, White Collar Blue)

The producers blurb -

“Dangerous is an explosive action series, a 'Romeo and Juliet' story with a tale of forbidden love, set against the culturally diverse backgrounds of western suburbs street crime and the affluence of Sydney's eastern suburbs. The eight-part, one-hour series will break new ground for Australian drama, exploring youth culture like never before, including taboo subjects including the underground world of drag racing and ram-raiding."


Sandra McLean of The Courier-Mail writes
”Producers of a new Australian television drama highlighting ram-raiding and drag racing are bracing themselves for protests from road safety campaigners and police”

Now for my say about Dangerous, it will be glamorizing street racing, it will be saying too kids “yeah go out and steal cars, use them too ram raid shops and set them on fire yeah go do that it’s exciting they do it on TV they don’t get caught no one gets killed its fun!”

Life is not a video game it’s not Need for Speed neither is it a movie life isn’t The Fast and the Furious, you don’t actually get killed in a video game.

Even on Wikapedia it only says “it contains stronger material than most Australian programs - regular coarse language, drug use and sexual references.” And mentions the cars because the cars are important aren’t they you can’t race without the fast cars


I don’t know about you but I think making things alluring too young people specially things like ram raiding and stealing cars on a TV show is a stupid idea, don’t the producers realize that the “Romeo and Juliet” angle has been done before many times before and all they will be doing is encouraging young people too go out and commit crimes and drive fast.

One of the young stars of the show says “I got too drive a fast car, that was so cool” The advertising for the show portrays it as fun and excitement, now you tell me how stealing cars is fun and why is ram raiding so cool?
If the Seven network was so concerned about falling ratings why put on a show like this, yes they will get their publicity but it will be bad publicity especially when some young teen, copying the shows stars gets killed on the road

The only way too stop the young copying them would be too kill off a cast member in every episode, big car crash explosive action and someone dies you don’t say “hey that’s fun” when some one dies. That would be the only way, Dangerous the TV show is a bad idea a very bad idea

Last night I had to come back in here, into the computer room because the monitor I was using out in the dining room shut off on me thought I had blown it up actually and went phew later when I went back out there and it was back on . Too hot out there I had the fan on the computer not the monitor and well it must have this auto shut down thing
It's too bad I have to be in here in the computer room, he's sleeping at the moment and I should be on his computer doing my Photoshop challenge for 360 (Salutan sent me coffee, dark and sleep-- I think he knows me.. thats a worry)
But I just can't get my head around it besides I know that as soon as I sit down at his computer I'll have to get right back up again as he will wake up
Might just post the challenge and be done with it

What is Parkinson's disease?

Parkinson's disease is a chronic, progressive disorder of the central nervous system that belongs to a group of conditions called motor system disorders. Parkinson's is the direct result of the loss of cells in a section of the brain called the substantia nigra. Those cells produce dopamine, a chemical messenger responsible for transmitting signals within the brain. Loss of dopamine causes critical nerve cells in the brain, or neurons, to fire out of control, leaving patients unable to direct or control their movement in a normal manner.

What are the symptoms?

Symptoms of Parkinson's, which often appear gradually yet with increasing severity, may include tremors or trembling; difficulty maintaining balance and gait; rigidity or stiffness of the limbs and trunk; and general slowness of movement (also called bradykinesia). Patients may also eventually have difficulty walking, talking, or completing other simple tasks
Parkinson's disease worsens over time
Awakenings staring robin Williams uses the drug used to treat Parkinson’s - L-dopa

Who has Parkinson’s?

Michael J. Fox

And my dad he turns 84 this year





My dad

He stands with his hands on his hips

He’s slightly stooped

He coughs from the coal dust of many years ago

Thin and grey now

But I remember a tall middle aged man

Who would sit me on his lap and let me stroke his fine black hair

Already starting to grey a little by the time I was born

That’s my dad

A great grand father

Like his clock

Tall but slightly battered through travels of many countries

But now my dad has Parkinson’s his hands wobble

He has trouble moving

His clock a great, great grandfather of a clock will outlast him

Like it has other generations of our family
