Satisfaction why did tippi die
This is gonna be the next Prisoner! But despite the talented cast, it hasn't delivered. The Satisfaction characters in both series are one-dimensional, unlikeable, and I just don't care about them. Bea, Lizzie and even pathetic little Dor would have had the heads of this bunch under the industrial ironing machine the minute they stepped through the doors of the Wentworth Detention Centre.
And on the odd occasion that I do become involved in a character's storyline, the writers offer up something so ridiculous that I start yelling at the television all over again.
I put it to you that as unfolded on a recent episode, on "losing" a condom after an encounter with a young man, a prostitute would be unlikely to climax while it was being retrieved in the emergency room for three reasons: 1 A duck-bill speculum is not a sexy object; 2 The doctor looks like her granddad; and 3 She's losing money the whole time she's on the table.
Granted, I have never known anyone who was a sex worker. Maybe Satisfaction IS a realistic portrayal of the industry, but I suspect real-life sex workers are much more interesting than the ladies depicted in both series of Satisfaction. It's a bit like the creators have put a whole lot of cliches into a hat and pulled them out at random — the single mum, the lesbian, the well-off divorcee, the angry sexually repressed girl. And it's not just the female characters who are uninteresting.
The blokes cop it too. I may have been the instigator of many an "all men are bastards" rant in my time, but even in my drunkest, darkest place, I've never made them out to be the scumbags that Satisfaction does. I know how to take a hint. When everyone from my sister to the guy measuring our windows for new wooden blinds tells me I should check out a show, I normally do.
So it wasn't with entirely innocent eyes that we sat down to watch Foxtel's Australian sex worker drama Satisfaction. Ten minutes later any innocence was well and truly lost. The Melbourne-based series has created a stir in the past 12 months with its graphic depiction of the working lives of a group of female prostitutes. And, by gee, the action at fictional brothel is not for the faint-hearted. There's the hooker with a heart of gold Chloe Diana Glenn , lesbian fetish specialist Heather Peta Sergeant , divorced mother-of-two Lauren Alison Whyte who has found her way on to the wrong side of the tracks, high-class escort Mel Madeleine West , new-age prostitute Tippi Bojana Novakovic and 's manager Nat Kestie Morassi who has a penchant for wearing rubber knickers.
Having ploughed through the first two seasons in a few weeks the third is screening on Showcase , I found Satisfaction had left a marked impression. It's been said by many that the nudity swiftly becomes second fiddle as the story-lines take over and I will attest to that. The first season did a stellar job in dealing with the story of each woman, episode by episode, setting up strong and believable characters who were backed by a riveting plot and backstories, all the while revealing to Australia what goes on behind closed doors at brothels.
A strong cast with some remarkable performances quickly had us captivated. Dustin Clare Sean as Sean. Steven Vidler Terence as Terence. Jonny Pasvolsky Zoron as Zoron. Tamblyn Lord Bill as Bill. Sue Jones Eileen as Eileen. Roger Oakley Greg as Greg. Steve Adams Sheedy as Sheedy. Kristie Jandric Rosie as Rosie. Meredith Sherlock Missy as Missy. Pietro Chiesi Ralph as Ralph. Catriona McKenzie. Storyline Edit. Coffee trade executive Bill accompanies business clients to Waiting with Chloe, he first becomes friends, later starts a relationship, which Josh senses isn't just business.
Zoron shyly keeps away after Tippi has died.
