Season 1 Review:
“Faraway Downs” does lessen the bombast. Ultimately, however, while more time for scenes to breathe does offer a smoother experience, Luhrmann’s new iteration enlarges but never really enlightens the same grandiose saga. At least, not to any degree that will change your mind about either version of this dusty, sun-baked vision.

Season 1 Review:
Watching Faraway Downs in the late Peak TV era, it’s easier to notice how thin the characters are, and how lacking in intimacy and nuance their relationships are. The scope that had felt sprawling for a movie feels limited for a show; even at close to four hours, the new version has little room for curiosity about the everyday details of this work, and even less for the characters who linger at the margins.
